Editor's Notes

  1. In a similar reivew of 21 publications including over 14,000 infertile couples, Collins et al. reported the distribution of primary diagnoses. Ovulatory factor was most common in 27%; followed by Male factor in 25%; Tubal factor in 22% And unexplained infertility in 17%. Other diagnoses, including endometriosis, cervical factor, luteal phase defect, immunologic, and genetic abnormatlities are diagnosed in only 9%. These two studies are consistent in demonstrating a prominent role of ovulatory and tubal factor. In addition, these studies show how important it is to evaluate both partners of the infertile couple. As a fellow at OliveView, it was fairly common to see a women in the repro endo clinic who had already undergone ovulation induction, only to find that her partner, who had repeatedly refused semen analysis due to self-perceived normal fertility or reported previous conception, had little to no sperm. The bottom line is that both partners should be evaluated in a timely fashion.
  2. Hysterosalpingography is well established as the primary test of uterine and tubal morphology. A review of anatomic screenoing modalities by the European society of hum reprod found HSG to be the most cost-effective screening tool in couples with infertility. Fluoroscopic visualization, 3 – 4 mL of radioopaque contrast initially to delineate cavity, additional 10 – 20 mL bolus for tubal filling or obstruction. Days 3 -8, prophylatic NSAID reduce discomfirt. There is an approximately 1% risk of postproceduarl infection, especially in the setting of prior or current PID and preexistin tubal damaage. Universal ppx nt recommended but does reduce risk of pprocedular febrail morbidity. In a large meta-analysis, HSG has been shown to have 65% sensitivity and 83% specificity. So while anormal HSG cannot reliably predict normal tubal function, it is reliable for significant tubal pathology. Not for detecting peritubal or peritneal adhesions.
  3. Well, there is good news these days for infertile couples. Anovulation Tubal Dz Cervical factor
