[An evaluation of sterility today].
After a reminder of the epidemiology: fertilization ability, fertility, hypofertility, the classic work-up of a sterile couple will be presented: temperature, hormonal evaluation, sperm count, cervical secretions, PCT, hysterogram. With each examination, a critical study of the evaluation of the results will be developed and possibly new ideas will be approached. Such a review reveals, most of the time, the etiology of the sterility. If this is not the case, after systematic laparoscopy, the rate of unexplained sterility will be approximately 5 p. cent. This small number of "unexplained sterilities" could then benefit from the most sophisticated new techniques, especially in-vitro fertilization of which the results, in terms of pregnancy, are identical in tubal pregnancies and unexplained pregnancies.
