    Aim: In this prospective cross-sectional study, we compared the uterine and ovarian artery blood flow parameters in patients diagnosed with unexplained primary infertility with fertile cases. Materials and Methods: Thirty female patients previously diagnosed as unexplained primary infertility aged 20-40 years were selected. The control group consisted of 30 fertile patients. To evaluate uterus and ovaries, all participants underwent ultrasonographic examination on the third day of the mestrual cycle. Also, blood samples were taken to evaluate the basal hormonal profile. Participants were re-evaluated on the 21st day of the menstrual cycle. Blood samples were taken for the measurement of progesterone level. Maximum endometrial thickness in the sagittal plane on both sides of the endometrial line was measured using transvaginal ultrasonography. Also, blood flows in uterine and ovarian arteries were measured via transvaginal Doppler ultrasonography. Resistance index and pulsatility index values in both uterine and ovarian arteries were recorded and averaged. Results: Both groups had similar clinical features and endometrial thickness values (P > 0.05). Patients with unexplained primary infertility had similar uterine and ovarian blood flow parameters compared to fertile patients (P > 0.05). There was no correlation between uterine and ovarian Doppler findings and demographic-clinical data. Conclusion: Patients with unexplained primary infertility have similar uterine and ovarian blood flow values compared with fertile patients.

    The relationship between body mass index in late pregnancy and fetomaternal blood flow parameters: A prospective cross-sectional study
    (2019) Aksoy, Ayse Nur; Guven Gozgec, Elif; Nacar, Tuncer
    Aim: To evaluate a possible relationship between body mass index and fetomaternal blood flow parameters in women with term pregnancy.Material and Methods: This study was performed on pregnant women undergoing routine third trimester ultrasound scans. Women were divided into four groups [underweight ( 18.5 kg/m2), normal weight (18.5–24.9 kg/m2), overweight (25-29.9 kg/m2) and obese (≥30 kg/m2)]. The uterine artery (UtA), umbilical artery (UA) and middle cerebral artery (MCA) were examined using color Doppler according to the standard protocols. The systole/diastole (S/D) ratio, pulsatility index (PI), and resistance index (RI) values of UtA, UA and MCA were recorded.Results: All Doppler findings were found to be similar among normal weight, overweight and obese women. There was a positive correlation between UtA-RI and maternal BMI (r=0.350; p0.01). There was a positive association between both UA-PI and UA-RI values with maternal BMI (r=0.372; p0.01; r=0.289; p=0.001, respectively). Also, we observed a positive association between both MCA-RI and MCA-S/D values with maternal BMI (r=0.180; p=0.04; r=0.181; p=0.04, respectively). Conclusion: Normal weight, overweight and obese women with term pregnancy have similar maternal and fetal blood flow parameters. Obese women should be informed about the risks of obesity during pregnancy, and they should be supported to lose weight before conception.
