Abstract:

Introduction: Infertility, one of the most common conditions confronting gynecologists, is defined as inability to conceive after 1 year of regular unprotected sexual intercourse. Infertility is a problem of global proportion. In recent years, laparoscopy has been considered as important tool in diagnosis and treatment of infertility. Objective: To detect the diagnostic efficacy of laparoscopy in uterine, tubal and ovarian pathologies. Material and Methods: This was a retrospective study carried out in Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Dhaka Medical College Hospital, Dhaka, Bangladesh from July to December 2022 in collaboration with Department of Radiodiagnosis & Department of Pathology. Study included sixty one cases of both primary and secondary infertility in women. We included only those infertile ladies whose husbands showed normal semen analysis. A detailed clinical history especially marital and obstetric history of the patients was taken. Through gynaecological examination was done and all necessary investigations (baseline endocrinal investigations, post coital study, cervical mucus study, ovulation study, post menstrual HSG) were done before laparoscopic examination. Written consent form was taken from all the patients. Results: Among 61 patients, 39 (63.9%) belonged to primary infertility and 22 (36.1%) were of secondary infertility. In primary (58.9%) and secondary infertility (59.1%) maximum number of patient belonged to age group of 21-25 years followed by 21-25 years age group in primary infertility and 31-36 years age group in secondary infertility. Peritubal or peri-ovarian adhesions were present in 15 cases of primary infertility and 5 cases of secondary infertility. Thirty four patients (56.67%) had normal ovaries. Conclusion: Due to safety and cost effectiveness, laparoscopy is considered as important diagnostic tool for evaluation of cause of infertility in women and for effective treatment decisions.

Abstract:

Segundo dados da Organização Mundial da Saúde, estima- -se que entre 60 e 80 milhões de pessoas em todo o mundo enfrentem dificuldades para levar a cabo seu projeto de paternidade e maternidade em algum momento da vida. Desejar ter filhos mas se deparar com a impossibilidade desse processo produz uma ampla gama de sentimentos, tais como medo, ansiedade, tristeza, frustração, desvalia e vergonha, desencadeando, por vezes, quadros importantes de estresse. A situação de infertilidade pode provocar efeitos devastadores tanto na esfera individual como conjugal, interferir nas relações sociais e na qualidade de vida. Muitas mulheres inférteis percebem a situação como estigmatizante, causadora de sofrimento psíquico e isolamento social.

Abstract:

Objective: The main objective of this study was to see the role ofHysterosalpingoscintigraphy (HSSG) in the evaluation of fallopian tube patency and function and its comparison withLaparoscopy. Design: Comparative Study. Place and Duration of Study: The study was conducted at BahawalpurInstitute of Nuclear Medicine and Radiotherapy, Bahawalpur during a period of 6 months from 1st March to 31st August2005. Material and Methods: Static HSSG was performed after instillation of 4mCi 99mTc-MAA in posterior vaginalfornix in 40 patients. Images were taken at an interval of 1hr, 2hrs, 3hrs anteriorly in supine position. Results: Out of40 patients, 20 patients had bilateral blocked tubes, 13 patients had bilateral patent tubes, 4 patients had blocked lefttube and 3 patients had blocked right tube. The calculated Sensitivity, Specificity, PPV and NPV for HSSG was 90%,85%, 90% and 90%. The agreement between Laparoscopy and HSSG was found in 36 out of 40 patients.Conclusions: This simple procedure can play an important role in the evaluation of infertility, especially in patients whosuffer from unexplained infertility due to a tubal factor. It was also concluded that HSSG be accepted with the othercorrelative imaging procedures, on a routine basis in work up of infertile females.

Abstract:

Objectives: To find the prevalence and etiology of female infertility as well asto study the associated biochemical abnormalities. Place and Duration of Study: Departmentof Gynecology, Frontier Medical & Dental College, Abbottabad, from July 2016 to June 2017.Study Design: Case-control study. Materials & Methods: All married patients between theages of 18-35 years were included in the study. Sixty patients who met eligibility criteria wereincluded in one group while sixty normal healthy individuals were included in the second groupas controls. Detailed history was taken focusing specifically on age and duration of marriage,menstrual and sexual history and drug history especially use of contraceptives. A thoroughclinical examination was performed by an experienced clinician and body mass index wascalculated. Laboratory investigations included complete blood examination, hormonal assays,ultrasonography in female patients and semen analysis in male partners. Tubal patency wasassessed by hysterosalpingography and laparoscopy was performed, if required. Results: Themean age of infertile patients was 27.4±4.9 years and mean duration of their marriage was6.6±2.9 years. Majority of patients in our study belonged to lower socio-economic status inboth groups. About 50% belonged to lower and 16.67% to poor socio-economic group amonginfertile subjects while 60% belonged to lower and 10% to poor socio-economic group amongcontrols. The chief presenting complaint was oligomenorrhea followed by galactorrhea anddyspareunia. The chiefunderlying condition was luteal phase deficiency, 60%, followed byhyperprolactinemia, 16.66%, and polycystic ovarian disease, 10%, fibroid uterus, 6.7%, andendometriosis, 6.7%. The serum estradiol levels were 114.6±48.7pg/ml and 233.2±70.8 pg/ml in follicular and luteal phase among infertile couples. Similarly, serum progesterone, serumprolactin, serum FSH and LH levels were 3.6±4.2 ng/ml, 18.1±12 ng/ml, 6.7±2.7 mIU/ml, and7±6.6 mIU/ml among infertile patients respectively. Serum estradiol and prolactin levels weresignificantly higher among infertile patients. Conclusion: Infertility is not a very uncommoncondition in our country. It is the need of time to increase awareness and educate massesabout infertility as well as establish infertility clinics for early detection and treatment of infertilecouples. Large scale multi-centric studies should also be conducted to accurately estimate theprevalence and etiology of infertility in our region.

Abstract:

Subfertility affects 1 in 6 couples in the UK. In the initial GP consultation it is helpful to see both partners together, although this may be difficult in a single 10 minute consultation. In 39% of couples, both male and female factors are responsible for subfertility, with male factors accounting for 30% of subfertility problems. Although this article will focus on female factors, male assessment is important, and a semen sample is one of the first steps in an assessment. If an abnormality is detected in the semen analysis, the test is normally repeated and if confirmed a secondary care referral is required. In 70% of cases a female factor will be the primary cause, and this article will focus on female factors in the more detailed management of subfertility.

Abstract:

Infertility is a communal pathological ailment now-a-days worldwide and approximately females are mostly suffering from this condition. In previous studies, out of 2.4 million married couples have females in between the ages from 15-44 year; 1.0 million couples were suffering from primary infertility and 1.4 million couples had secondary infertility. The infertility causes are ovulatory factors, dietary factors, psychological factors, abnormal endocrine functions, fallopian tube disorders etc. PCOS, PIDs, endometriosis. The ultrasonography is the most powerful tool for diagnosis. The treatment involves medical, surgical and assisted reproduction. Medical treatment includes clomiphene, metformin, iron & folic acid supplements along with oralcontraceptives. Surgical treatment is operative laparoscopy and assisted reproduction is achieved by IVF, GIFT & IUI etc. It is concluded from the study that the percentage prevalence of female infertility among ages was higher in age group (25-34) years (76%) and it was mostly secondary infertility (54%). The main pathological factor of female infertility in Sialkot city was PCOS, which was 52% of evaluated patients. Commonly used diagnostic tools were ultrasonography with prevalence of 100% and endocrine tests (72%). In prescription trend, anti-obesity drugs, anti-oestrogen drugs and oral-contraceptives were commonly prescribed and other treatment interventions were also seen in few patients.

Abstract:

Objective: The purpose of this study is to decide the prevalence of primary and secondary infertility. Material and Method: In this systematic review facts extracted by Medline, PubMed, science direct and Obs gyne online library that were queried for studies posted between 2005 to 2021 by using specific MeSH terms. We extracted data from 15 cross sectional studies that was carried out in discipline exercise regions of tertiary care health facility. Results: This study shows data from population surveys reporting on occurrence of number one and secondary infertility. Fifteen research furnished estimates of primary and secondary infertility incidence in 6400 infertile couple. Out of 6400 infertile patients 3600 (fifty six.25%) offering with primary and 2800 (43.2%) supplying with secondary infertility. Age distribution with number one infertility confirmed that the majority of the participants belong to the most fertile age institution. Age distribution of women with secondary infertility confirmed that majority belongs to the age institution of 30–39 years. The primary results of the modern researches had been the primary infertility’s high rate (fifty six.25%) and excessive charge of female factors among infertile couples. Although, it has been said in other researches that female variables (40%), male variables (40%) or a combination (20%) of each could be associated to the causes of infertility. Motive of the couple’s infertility turned into determined on the basis of their examination results and medical history. As compared to the secondary infertility, number one infertility occurrence was higher within the people approaching a tertiary care middle of public zone. Conclusion: From this systematic evaluate we concluded that as compared to secondary infertility, the primary infertility’s superiority is higher. The marriage age is increasing which impacts reasons with male variables and unexplained infertility greater generally observed with increasing age of marriage. Female component stays a principle reason for the infertility including some unexplained reasons and means. In the population coming to a public region tertiary care center, the number one infertility’s prevalence is higher as compared to the prevalence of secondary infertility.

Abstract:

To investigate the correlation between the genome copy number variation and female infertility we collected 3962 female infertility samples and analyzed copy number variation (CNV) using high-throughput sequencing technologies. In this study 269 CNVs were found in 246 samples, 17 of which were new CNVs. The occurrence of CNVs was mostly found in X chromosome, and some candidate genes related to female infertility were screened. We also found some high frequency CNVs, which contain important functional genes. This study filled the blank of CNV research on female infertility and discovered the characteristics of CNV (CNV preference, recurrent CNV), which provided genetic reference for female infertility.

Abstract:

Introduction: Infertility is a critical health concern partially due to intricacy in its causes and striving for its prevention, diagnosis and treatment. Various researches have documented a close linkage between polycystic ovary syndrome and hyperprolactinemia. Aims & Objectives: This study was aimed to determine the frequency of hyperprolactinemia in PCOS and its association with infertility in PCOS subjects. Place and duration of study: It was a cross sectional study, conducted during April 2017 and September 2017 at Aziz Fatimah Hospital, Faisalabad, Pakistan. Material & Methods: It was a cross sectional study which was conducted at Aziz Fatimah Hospital, Faisalabad, Pakistan from April to September 2017. This study comprised of 88 female subjects of 17-35 years old who included PCOS subjects and age matched controls. Hyperprolactinemia was assessed by the measurement of serum prolactin levels which were measured by chemiluminescence immunoassay technique (CLIA). SPSS version 22 was used for the statistical analysis of the data. Results: Out of total 88 female participants, 61.4% of polycystic ovary syndrome subjects had hyperprolactinemia as compared to this 36.4% of controls had hyperprolactinemia. Pearson correlation also revealed significant positive association of hyperprolactinemia with infertility. Conclusion: Hyperprolactinemia was frequently seen in polycystic ovary syndrome females as well as raised BMI was also found. Raised prolactin levels are strongly associated with female infertility. Key words: Hyperprolactinemia, Infertilty, Polycystic Ovary Syndrome.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Introduction Female sexual dysfunction (FSD) is very common among infertile patients. Whether FSD leads to infertility or infertility leads to FSD is still less understood. Objectives To study the prevalence of FSD and various factors that can lead to sexual dysfunction. Materials and methods This is a cross-sectional observational study conducted at a tertiary care center in Ahmedabad from June 2015 to March 2016. A total of 240 infertile patients in reproductive age group (20—47 years) were studied, for which informed consent was obtained. Female sexual dysfunction was assessed with a detailed 19-item female sexual function index questionnaire. All six domains of sexual dysfunction, i.e., desire, arousal, lubrication, orgasm, satisfaction, and pain, were studied. Various associated factors like gynecological and psychological disorders were also studied. Fertile patients were excluded. Results The prevalence of FSD among infertile patients was 48.75%. The most common sexual dysfunction was arousal (94.01%) followed by lubrication (89.74%) and orgasm dysfunction (85.47%). Psychological status of patients had significant impact on sexual life. Conclusion Sexuality is an important part of an individual's personality. With time, stress in life and sexual dysfunction are also increasing. Therefore, sexual function assessment should be included in the routine workup for infertility. How to cite this article Mishra VV, Nanda S, Agarwal R, Choudhary S, Aggarwal R, Goyal P.

Abstract:

Gender biases impact doctors’ advising on infertility, thereby shaping treatment recommendations and patient health outcomes. This study explored the roles attributed to gender in the personal opinions of male and female medical residents in Saudi Arabia. This study used content and Appraisal analyses to explore attitudes realised by 85 female and 81 male Saudi medical interns about infertility. Content contained six themes, including infertility, psychology, children, marriage, divorce and religion. Both male and female participants understood women as the cause of and person responsible for dealing with infertility. Males focused on medical treatments, females on folk medicines. Female appraisals were mainly negative, male appraisals mainly positive. Strong co-frequencies were found for females between divorce and misery, and folk medicine and capacity, and for males between medical treatments and capacity, and children as emotionally fulfilling to women and normality. Both groups understood infertility primarily as a social and religious more than a medical issue. Gender biases, and contradictions in attributed gender roles were evident in how both groups discussed infertility. International institutions teaching healthcare communication must emphasise awareness of how gender stereotyping and cultural factors impact infertility advising and treatment.

Abstract:

Infertility has repercussions as a problem in different areas. Regarding the sphere of the couple, this is a situation that can affect both spouses and operates in marital satisfaction. Therefore, the objective of the present study was to know how the conjugality is affected by the female infertility from the national and international scientific production. It is an integrative review of the scientific literature indexed in the databases/libraries PUBMED, PsycINFO and LILACS published between 2008 and 2018, in the Portuguese, Spanish and English languages, which recovered 34 publications, which were submitted to critical analysis. It is a predominantly international production, with a quantitative approach. The guiding question that led to the present revision was answered, so that it was found that infertility transforms the conjugal relationship, most often negatively, which has no direct influence of the female factor as cause. In contrast, the search for treatment is shown as an aspect of cohesion between the couple, which strengthens itself in pursuit of a common goal. Therefore, it is necessary to develop actions that aim at improving the marital and sexual quality of life of couples who are undergoing diagnosis and treatment for infertility.

Abstract:

Introduction: Infertility is a disease of the male or female reproductive system defined by the failure to achieve a pregnancy after 12 months or more of regular unprotected sexual intercourse. In the female reproductive system, infertility may be caused by a range of abnormalities of the ovaries, uterus, fallopian tubes, and the endocrine system, among others. Infertility can be primary or secondary. Primary infertility is when a pregnancy has never been achieved by a person, and secondary infertility is when at least one prior pregnancy has been achieved. Objectives: Describe the epidemiology of female infertility. Review the most common findings of female infertility. Outline the management for known causes of female infertility. Explain the importance of improving health care coordination among the interprofessional team to enhance and improve outcomes for female infertility patients.

Abstract:

Background: Infertility is defined as inability to conceive within one or more years of regular unprotected coitus. Infertility has now a days not only a medical but a social problem as well. Ignorance and illiteracy, coupled with hesitancy to discuss the problem, complicates the matter further. WHO has listed infertility as a global health issue.Methods: The present study was conducted on 64 patients with female factor primary infertility admitted in department of obstetrics and gynecology at Rajendra Hospital, Patiala over a duration of 1 year (December 2013- November 2014). All the patients had normal semen study of their partner.Results: In our study mean age was 27.87±4.57. No patient was above 40 years of age. Duration of infertility between 1-5 years was in 47 patients (73.43%), nine patients (14.06%) were infertile for 6-10 years. Out of 64 patients of primary infertility, majority of patients were of endometriosis 15(23.43%), followed by pelvic inflammatory disease14(21.87%), tubal blockade in 7(10.9%), PCOD in 6(9.37%). 14.08% patients had normal laproscopic study. 34 patients (53.12%) had bilateral spill while no spill was seen in 12 patients (18.75%). Unilateral spill was seen in seven patients (10.93%) while six patients (9.37%) had delayed spill.Conclusions: Prevalence of infertility is increasing, so is the awareness and treatment seeking behavior. The present study assures that in evaluation and workup of primary infertility patients, after baseline noninvasive investigations, endometrial sampling and HSG, the diagnostic and operative laproscopy is an excellent tool for evaluation of tubal factor. Least expected conditions like endometriosis on clinical evaluation, can be diagnosed and treated with ease on laproscopy. Although tubal factor has been considered to be responsible for a large percentage of cases with female secondary infertility since decades, but in present study laproscopic evaluation confirmed tubal factor in 85.01% cases with female factor infertility.

Abstract:

Abstract—Infertility is one of society's physical, social, and psychological difficulties. "Failure to obtain a clinical pregnancy after 12 months or more of regular unprotected sexual intercourse," according to the definition. Ovulation induction has remained a watershed moment in the lives of women. Infertility is a prevalent problem that is sometimes misunderstood. Male infertility has affected an increasingly large population over the past few decades, affecting over 186 million people globally. The advent of assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) and artificial intelligence (AI) has changed the landscape of diagnosis and treatment of male infertility. Because of its effects on families, its importance to study in related fields such as fertility trends and reproductive health, and its implications for practitioners who work with individuals and couples facing infertility. Infertility is an important topic for family scientists. Inability or difficulty in conceiving is a physically and psychologically draining experience for a woman. Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) has been determined as one of the serious health problems in women that affects the fertility of women and leads to significant health conditions. Therefore, early diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome can be effective in the treatment process Keywords—infertility; hormones; clinical data,PCOS,adolescene ,harmone,

Abstract:

Infertility is defined as the failure to conceive, with no contraception, after one year of regular intercourse in women < 35 years and after 6 months in women > 35 years. A review on causes, management and treatment of endocrine causes of was performed. Epidemiological data suggest that around 10% to 15% of couples are infertile. Anovulatory problems are responsible from 25% to 50% of causes of . Advanced age, obesity, and drugs, have a negative effect on fertility. Different hypothalamic, pituitary, thyroid, adrenal, and ovarian disorders may affect fertility as well. Infertility is a growing phenomenon in developed societies. We here provide information about how to identify endocrine patients with ovulatory dysfunction. Women must be advised about limiting factors to be avoided, in order to protect their fertility.
