This study aimed to compare the prevalence of endometrial polyps in two groups of women with tubal factor infertility and male factor infertility to assess if is there any association between tubal factor infertility and endometrial polyps.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>This case\u2013control study was performed on infertile women. The case group included women with tubal factor infertility and the control group included all women with male factor infertility. In all patients, vaginal ultrasound was performed between days 8 and 12 of the menstrual cycle to diagnose endometrial polyp, its size, and number. Demographic and obstetrics variables were recorded. Patients underwent hysteroscopy and polypectomy and the diagnosis of the polyp was confirmed by pathology report.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Result<\/jats:title><jats:p>In the present study, 245 people participated in two groups. There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of demographic and obstetric characteristics like type of infertility, duration of infertility, and gravidity. The prevalence of polyps in the tubal factor group was higher than in the male factor group (63 [60%] vs. 12 [9.8%]), and this difference was statistically significant (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.0001). In addition, the prevalence of chronic endometritis in the tubal factor group was higher than in the male factor group (19 [18.8%] vs. 4 [3.3%]), and this difference was statistically significant

endometrial polyps and tubal obstruction, and considering that the most common cause of tubal obstruction is pelvic and genital infections, after confirmation with more studies, it may be possible to consider antibiotic treatment in these patients, especially in patients with recurrent
