Genital tuberculosis, caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis, is a lesser-known but significant factor contributing to infertility and reproductive health issues. Understanding the implications of genital tuberculosis on fertility and accessing specialized care are crucial for individuals facing this condition. At Aashakiran IVF, led by Dr. Asmita Mahla, comprehensive evaluation, treatment, and support are provided to address genital tuberculosis and its impact on reproductive health.
Genital Organs Affected by Genital Tuberculosis: Genital tuberculosis primarily affects the reproductive organs, including:
- Fallopian Tubes: Genital tuberculosis can lead to inflammation, scarring, and blockage of the fallopian tubes, impairing the passage of eggs from the ovaries to the uterus and increasing the risk of tubal infertility.
- Endometrium: The lining of the uterus (endometrium) may be affected by genital tuberculosis, resulting in chronic inflammation, adhesions, and altered receptivity for embryo implantation, leading to implantation failure and recurrent miscarriages.
- Ovaries: Genital tuberculosis can damage ovarian tissue, disrupt ovarian function, and impair follicular development, reducing the quality and quantity of eggs available for fertilization.
- Uterus: In some cases, genital tuberculosis may cause uterine abnormalities, such as intrauterine adhesions (Asherman’s syndrome), which can impact menstrual regularity, fertility, and pregnancy outcomes.
Impact on Fertility and Reproductive Health: Genital tuberculosis can significantly impact fertility and reproductive health through various mechanisms, including:
- Tubal Factor Infertility: Fallopian tube damage and blockage resulting from genital tuberculosis can hinder the transport of eggs and sperm, leading to tubal factor infertility and difficulty conceiving naturally.
- Implantation Failure: Chronic inflammation and scarring of the endometrium caused by genital tuberculosis may impair embryo implantation and increase the risk of failed implantation or recurrent miscarriages.
- Ovarian Dysfunction: Damage to ovarian tissue and disruption of ovarian function can affect ovulation, egg quality, and hormonal balance, contributing to infertility and menstrual irregularities.
