AbstractStudies have proven the significance of microbial communities in various parts of the human body for health. In recent years it has been discovered that the uterine cavity is not sterile, and endometrium has its own microbiome which appears to have an impact on female fertility and gynecological pathologies. Lactobacillus has shown to dominate the microbial profile in the uterus and is considered an indicator of a healthy uterine environment. Yet, many argue that the Lactobacillus dominance is due to vaginal contamination during the sampling process. To date there is no clearly defined healthy endometrial microbial profile, which is largely due to the fact that determining the microbial community from the endometrium is complicated, and there is currently no consensus on sampling methods for the endometrial microbiome. As a result, this restricts ability to replicate discoveries made in other cohorts. Here we aim to give an overview of the sampling methods used and discuss what impedes the endometrial microbiome studies as well as how to reach a consensus on the study design. This knowledge could be incorporated into the future research and the knowledge on endometrial microbiome could be included into the diagnostics and treatment of female reproductive health.
