[Successes in the diagnosis and therapy of sterility at a regional hospital. Contribution on the organization of a sterility counseling service].

On base of diagnostical and therapeutical possibilities of a district hospital the results in the treatment of the sterility with 194 female patients were analysed. In 36,6% of all cases the treatment ended successfully. Except the general and special gynaecological examinations there were diagnostical arrangements as the simple check of the ovarial function and of the passage of tube, as well as fertility estimation of the sexual partner. In addition to the general medical advice there were therapeutically carried out vaginal sanitation, hormone therapy and the pertubation as well as ovulation induction. By experience there will be worked out a first draft for carrying out sterility hours of consultation. After this a "basic diagnostic" and a "basic therapy" will be made in the bounds of possibilities of the district hospital. Indications for the transfer of patients to special hospitals for further treatment are represented.
