The incidence of ovulatory dysfunction (anovulation, oligo-ovulation, and luteal phase defect) in 103 patients with endometriosis and infertility was found to be 27.2%. Ovulatory dysfunction was found to occur at a slightly higher age group than the patients with normal ovulatory pattern (p less than 0.02). Prior use of oral steroidal contraceptives does not increase the incidence of ovulatory dysfunction. In addition, there is no correlation between the duration of infertility, and te incidence of ovulatory dysfunction in this group of patients with endometriosis. This report suggests an association between endometriosis and ovulatory dysfunction in some patients, which adds to the etiology of their infertility. It is also suggested that the diagnosis of endometriosis should be suspected in cases of unexplained infertility, even if the pelvic examination does not have any positive objective findings.
在103例患有子宫内膜异位症和不孕症的患者中，排卵功能障碍（无排卵、稀发排卵和黄体期缺陷）的发生率为27.2%。发现排卵功能障碍发生的年龄组略高于排卵模式正常的患者（p小于0.02）。既往使用口服甾体类避孕药不会增加排卵功能障碍的发生率。此外，在这组子宫内膜异位症患者中，不孕持续时间与排卵功能障碍的发生率之间没有相关性。本报告提示在一些患者中子宫内膜异位症与排卵功能障碍之间存在关联，这增加了其不孕的病因。还建议在不明原因不孕的病例中，即使盆腔检查没有任何阳性客观发现，也应怀疑子宫内膜异位症的诊断。
