Correlation of Uterine Artery Resistive Index with Endometrial Thickness among the patients of Primary Infertility.
Asian J Allied Health Sci Jan ;3(4):15-21.

Infertility is a worldwide social, economic, and psychological problem. It can be caused by various factors including age, mental health, polycystic ovarian syndrome, ovarian failure, and defective endometrial receptivity. Endometrial receptivity is the preparation and thickening of the endometrium. Objective: To correlate the uterine artery resistive index with endometrial thickness among the females of primary infertility. Methods: A cross-sectional analytical study was conducted at Gilani ultrasound center from December 2017 to May 2018. A total number of 104 women including, 52 fertile and 52 infertile, aged between 18-50 years were selected. Statistical analysis was performed through SPSS version 25.0. Results: Among 52 fertile women, mean endometrial thickness was 8.29+-0.63mm while the mean resistive index of the uterine artery was 0.78+-0.070. Among 52 infertile women, mean endometrial thickness was 7.42+-2.65mm while the mean RI of uterine artery was 0.78+-0.047. A non-signi?cant association was found between RI of uterine artery and endometrial thickness of infertile participants (p=0.100). Conclusions: Hence, the study concluded that there was nons igni?cant correlation found between endometrial thickness and resistive index of the uterine artery among infertile participants.
