Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Stages of the pelvic organ prolapse
Once the measurements are taken, the infertility patients are assigned to the corresponding POP-Q stage. Stage-0 is no prolapse. Stage-1 stands for the most distal portion of the prolapse is more than 1 cm above the level of the hymen. Stage-2 stands for the most distal prolapse is between 1 cm above and 1 cm below the hymen (at least one point is -1, 0, or +1). Stage-3: The most distal prolapse is more than 1 cm below the hymen but no further than 2 cm less than total vaginal length. Stage-4 stands for the complete vaginal eversion.

Study Arms (1)
Infertility patients
Infertility patients will be examined according to the pelvic organ prolapse quantification classification system during hysteroscopy.
Interventions
The Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification system assessment tool measures nine anatomical points and distances in the vagina. The hymen is the reference point to which the other points are compared. The prolapsed organs are measured in centimeters to the hymen with an examination ruler.
Eligibility Criteria
The study population is the patients examined for female infertility.
You may qualify if:
- Ages between 18-45
- Patients who cannot become pregnant despite regular sexual intercourse for more than one year
You may not qualify if:
- Malignity
- Patients who become pregnant during infertility assessment
