Clinical Report: Reference Ranges for Uterine and Ovarian Measurements

Overview

This study establishes normative reference ranges for uterine and ovarian dimensions among Indian women aged 18 to 40 years, highlighting correlations with anthropometric and hormonal factors.

Background

Accurate assessment of uterine and ovarian morphology is essential for evaluating reproductive health and diagnosing gynecological disorders. The Indian population exhibits distinct anthropometric characteristics compared to Western populations, necessitating the establishment of region-specific normative values.

Data Highlights

ParameterMean ± SD
Uterine Length (Transabdominal)7.09 ± 1.64 cm
Uterine Length (Transvaginal)7.11 ± 1.83 cm
Ovarian Volume (Left, Transabdominal)7.06 ± 3.44 cc
Ovarian Volume (Right, Transabdominal)7.26 ± 3.29 cc
Follicle Count (Left Ovary)6.05 ± 3.18
Follicle Count (Right Ovary)5.89 ± 3.03

Key Findings

  • The mean uterine length was 7.09 ± 1.64 cm via transabdominal ultrasound.
  • Ovarian volumes were 7.06 ± 3.44 cc (left) and 7.26 ± 3.29 cc (right) using transabdominal scans.
  • The mean follicle count was 6.05 ± 3.18 for the left ovary and 5.89 ± 3.03 for the right ovary.

Clinical Implications

The established normative values for uterine and ovarian dimensions can enhance the accuracy of reproductive health assessments in Indian women. These parameters are essential for diagnosing various gynecological disorders and evaluating reproductive health.

Conclusion

This study provides normative data for uterine and ovarian measurements in Indian women.
