title: [The role of chronic tonsillitis in the development of reproductive pathology in women of child-bearing age].
abstract: Women of child-bearing age with decompensated form of chronic tonsillitis should be regarded as being at high risk of endocrine infertility. Early identification and sanitization of the chronic infectious focus (chronic tonsillitis) is necessary to avoid irreversible changes in the functional capacity of the reproductive system. Sanitization of palatine tonsils in patients with chronic tonsillitis and reproductive pathology promotes normalization of their hormonal status. Therefore, a gynecologist examining women with menstrual disturbances should take into consideration their possible association with chronic tonsillitis and refer such patients to otorhinolaryngologist.
