Abstract
BACKGROUND Infertility is a medical as well as social problem. This causes severe mental stress in infertile couples, especially in women. The parenthood is the natural way of life. In ordinary course of life, couples usually have children in majority of cases. The incidence of infertility varies from region to region. Aims and Objectives- To find out the incidence of various endometrial pathologies in cases of infertility. MATERIALS AND METHODS A descriptive study was carried out in the Department of Pathology, RIMS, Raichur. 200 cases of primary and secondary infertility were studied. Endometrial biopsies were evaluated with available menstrual history. Premenstrual phase endometrial biopsies were obtained. Haematoxylin and eosin staining was done for dating of endometrium and diagnosis of luteal phase defect and anovulatory cycles. PAS staining was also done. Proportions and percentages of primary and secondary infertility having various pathology were calculated. RESULTS Menstrual problems were seen in 38% of patients. Anovulatory infertility was present in 41.73% cases. Luteal phase defect was seen in 20% cases. Simple hyperplasia without atypia was seen in 8.4% cases and tuberculous endometritis was present in 10.7% cases. Glycogen deficiency was seen in 28.13% of cases of luteal phase defect. CONCLUSION In the present study of 200 cases, majority were primary infertility cases. Common age group affected was 26 - 30 years. Anovulatory cycles accounted for significant numbers of cases.
