Özet: Introduction: This study investigates unexplained infertile women with or without chronic endometritis (CE) and examines the prevalence of the human papillomavirus (HPV) in this population. Material and Method: This study was done with a cross-sectional and retrospective method. The prevalence of HPV infection and related cases in the participants were examined. In this study, 15 infertile women with CE and 64 infertile women without CE were and analyzed from four perspectives: negative HPV, low-risk HPV, probable high-risk HPV, and the presence of high-risk HPV. Results: The participants have mean age of 32.89 years ±3.95. High-risk HPV infection was detected in 3 (20%) and 11 (17%) of the patients with and without CE, respectively (p>0.05). The negative HPV (2 (13%) and 17 (26%)), low-risk HPV (3 (20%) and 20 (31%)), and probable high-risk HPV (7 (46%) and 16 (25%)) in infertile women with CE and infertile women had no significantly different prevalence (p>0.05). The two studied groups had no significantly different mean age, body mass index (BMI), and Infertility duration were not in (P=0.08, P=0.932, and P=0.283, respectively). Conclusion: HPV has no significantly different prevalence in unexplained infertile women with and without CE. It is recommended that this study be repeated with more unexplained infertile women with CE.
