because of primary infertility. They have been trying to conceive for over 2 years. The
woman has regular menstrual periods bleeding for 4 days every 28–30 days. Her periods
are not heavy and have never been painful. There is no intermenstrual bleeding or discharge
and no postcoital bleeding. She has never been diagnosed with any sexually transmitted
infections.
The last smear was normal 1 year ago. She is a non-smoker and drinks alcohol very
