Identification of Uterine Microbiota in Infertile Women Receiving in vitro Fertilization With and Without Chronic Endometritis.

ABSTRACT: In vitro fertilization (IVF) is an important assisted reproductive technology in treating infertility, whose failure rate is still high. Studies suggested that uterine microbiota are related to women's reproductive diseases and persisting intrauterine bacterial infectious conditions, such as chronic endometritis (CE), impairing the pregnant processes. However, the relationship between uterine microbiota and IVF outcomes is still an open question. In the present study, 94 patients diagnosed with infertility were enrolled and were divided into CE (E group, n = 25) and non-CE (NE group, n = 69) groups depending on the hysteroscopy and immunohistochemistry. Subsequently, E (Ep, n = 8 and Enp, n = 17) and NE (NEp, n = 41 and NEnp, n = 28) groups
