Can endometrial tuberculosis cause infertility in women?

The uterus is where the fertilized egg implants. If the endometrium is tuberculous, it will be detrimental to the implantation and development of the fertilized egg. Endometrial tuberculosis is such a disease. Experts say that the chances of women with endometrial tuberculosis wanting to get pregnant are very small, and they must receive formal professional treatment to have a chance of getting pregnant.

1. Natural fertility: For patients with mild endometrial tuberculosis, no treatment is required in the hope of natural conception. This is the best physiological treatment method for patients with mild endometrial tuberculosis.

2. Drug treatment: Hormone suppression therapy is mostly used, the purpose of which is to inhibit pituitary-ovarian function, cause uterine atrophy, and then cause necrosis and absorption of the lesions. There are many methods of drug treatment currently used, such as estrogen/progesterone-induced pseudopregnancy therapy, danazol, mifepristone, etc.

3. Laparoscopic technique: Laparoscopy is currently recognized as the best method for diagnosis and treatment, and is a minimally invasive surgical treatment. Through surgery, adhesions can be broken up, and endometrial tuberculosis lesions in the pelvic cavity can be removed by burning and extraction, thereby restoring normal ovarian ovulation.

In summary, there are three treatment methods for patients with endometrial tuberculosis who want to get pregnant. In addition to natural conception, which is suitable for mild endometrial tuberculosis, drug therapy and laparoscopic technology are more common treatment methods. As a minimally invasive surgery, laparoscopic technology is increasingly popular.
