Abstract

Endometritis is defined as an infection or inflammation of the endometrium. Endometritis is of two types: acute and chronic. Acute endometritis is symptomatic acute inflammation of the endometrium and on microscopic examination shows microabscess and neutrophil invasion in the superficial endometrium. One of the most common cause is postpartum endometritis. Chronic endometritis is a silent disease and usually diagnosed on the workup of secondary amenorrhoea and infertility. One important cause of chronic endometritis is Tuberculosis, especially in developing nations. Chronic and acute endometritis both are associated with poor reproductive outcomes, especially chronic endometritis. This is a scoping review of endometritis and its impact on fertility.
