Abstract

Objectives. Infertility is a topic of great interest around the world because it affects many couples at young ages. It can be caused by genetic background, associated with pathologies and/or external factors. The purpose of our study was to identify the causes of infertility of women presented in our clinic with this pathology. Materials and Methods. This retrospective study was performed on women with primary or secondary infertility. The analyzed data were age, weight, hereditary and personal pathological history, medication, menstrual cycle characteristics, standard blood tests, ultrasound, hysterosalpingography and hysteroscopy. Results. The study included 204 women with average age 35 years. The main diagnosis was primary infertility in 68.63% and secondary infertility in 31.37% cases. One of the most common diagnosed findings in ultrasound were uterine fibroids with an incidence of 6.86%, the incidence being higher among women with primary infertility than in women with secondary infertility. Regarding endometrial polyps, 96.15% of cases were observed ultrasonographical and the incidence of endometrial polyps was higher among women with primary infertility than in women with secondary infertility. Conclusions. This study identified that infertility is a multifactorial pathology, which requires multidisciplinary addressability. Gynecological pathology (such as tubal pathologies, uterine malformations, uterine fibroids, endometriosis, endometrial polyps, etc.) was very common among these patients, finding and treating the condition being the main objective of the study.
