The most common complaint among women who visit for an ultrasound is infertility, and ultrasound should be the first imaging technique to assess these patients. Objective: The aim of this study is to study uterine fibroids and endometriosis causing infertility in females using ultrasonography. Methods: The study was carried out in Gujranwala Pakistan at Chatha Hospital, Gondal hospital, and Al-Amin diagnostic center. The sonographic scanning of the 95 patients are included in the study. The bladder must be sufficiently filled; the lower abdomen should be lubricated with a coupling agent. Start by scanning transversely from the symphysis pubis to the umbilicus. Then, tilt the probe sharply downward until the uterus appears in the center of the screen and the endometrial line is visible. Finally, increase the image's gain and freeze the result. Results: The uterine fibroids and endometriosis are mainly affected in the age group of 30-39 has the highest frequency of (44.2%). The Ultrasound finding of the disease is such that endometriosis has the frequency of 23(24.2%) patients and the uterine fibroids have the frequency of 43(45.3%) patients. Secondary infertility has a maximum frequency of patients that is 51(53.7%) and primary infertility has a minimum frequency of patients that is 44(46.3%). Conclusions: In this study, uterine fibroids and endometriosis cause infertility in women between the age between 20 years to 60 years. More females are affected at the age of 30-39 years. More infertility is caused by uterine fibroids.
