Finding the cause of chronic endometritis in IVF patients
Part of Immune system & allergy, Lungs & breathing, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks for a possible infection-related cause of chronic endometritis (a long-lasting inflammation inside the uterus) in people preparing for IVF/ICSI, to help find the best treatment. It involves a diagnostic hysteroscopy and may help doctors choose the most effective steps to improve pregnancy chances.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are planning IVF or ICSI treatment at Brussels IVF (UZ Brussel)
- You will have a diagnostic hysteroscopy as part of getting ready for IVF/ICSI
- Your hysteroscopy must be diagnostic (to look/collect information), not an interventional treatment procedure
- You do not have a recent history of chronic endometritis treated with antibiotics in the last 3 months

This study looks at how pesticides might affect fertility in women with endometriosis, focusing on stress markers and gut/genital bacteria. You will provide samples and answer questions so researchers can compare women with and without endometriosis.
This study looks at what causes endometriosis by comparing healthy people and those with a clear diagnosis. You may join if you have regular periods and haven't used hormonal treatments in the last 3 months.
This study tests whether antibiotics can improve fertility in women with chronic endometritis—a long-term inflammation of the uterine lining that may prevent pregnancy. You would have a uterine biopsy to confirm the condition, receive antibiotic treatment, and be monitored to see if you become pregnant.
This study examines whether the bacteria living in the uterine lining (endometrium) affect whether embryos implant and pregnancies continue after IVF. Researchers will collect tissue samples and study your microbiota—the community of microorganisms in your body—to help explain repeated implantation failures or miscarriages.
This study looks at possible “background causes” of chronic inflammation of the uterus lining in women who struggle to get pregnant or have repeated miscarriages. It may help doctors better understand what factors contribute to infertility so care can be more targeted.
This study compares two ways of taking antibiotics to treat chronic endometritis, an inflammation of the uterine lining that can affect fertility. The goal is to see which method is more effective in improving outcomes for women trying to conceive.
