Abstract: Reproductive immunology has become an important branch of reproductive medicine, where the concept of protecting the conceptus from immune attack at the maternal-fetal interface has been gradually applied in clinical practice. This article reviews reproductive problems from a rheumatologists perspective, including antiphospholipid syndrome, reproductive problems associated with autoimmune conditions and immunopathological classification of endometrium by endometrial biopsy which may be of great significance in the study of reproductive immunity.

Key words: Reproductive science, Immunology, Rheumatism, Endometritis, Pathology
