The role of infectious and inflammatory diseases of the urogenital system in the development of infertility

Abstract

Infectious-inflammatory diseases of the urogenital system are one of the frequent causes of female infertility. The data of many authors testify to the close connection between the frequency of infertility and the number of pelvic inflammatory processes suffered in the past. According to J. Keith (1988), L. Westrem (1988), in one relapse of acute inflammatory process, the reproductive function remains intact in 97% of the patients, and in recurrent cases the frequency of infertility progressively increases and reaches 75%. In this regard, we studied the role of inflammatory diseases of the urogenital system in the development of infertility in 122 women admitted to the obstetric unit of the SamMI clinic who had been infertile before the present pregnancy.
