Infertility Causes and Pregnancy Outcome in Patients With Familial Mediterranean Fever and Controls.

Objective: Recurrent attacks of peritonitis due to familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) may lead to peritoneal adhesions and fallopian tube obstruction. Colchicine, which is the treatment of choice for FMF, may disturb cell division. Secondary amyloidosis, a complication of untreated FMF, may involve the testes and ovaries.
