Tüm dünyayı tehdit eden ve küresel pandemi ilan edilen Koronavirüs Hastalığı-19 (COVID-19) hakkında literatürde bulunan veriler; bu hastalığın sadece solunum sistemini değil, aynı zamanda genital sistemin de arasında bulunduğu pekçok sistemi ve buna bağlı organları tehdit ettiğini ortaya koymuştur. Virüsün bu kadar geniş bir aralıkta etki göstermesinin temel nedeni ise, hücre içerisine girişte kullandığı ACE 2’yi eksprese eden pekçok organ bulunmasıdır. COVID-19’un kadın üreme sağlığı üzerindeki etkilerinin yer aldığı araştırma sayısı fazla olmamakla birlikte, olası etkileri hipotez aşamasında kalmış durumdadır. Bu derleme; COVID-19’un ovaryum, uterus, serviks dokuları ile vajinal sıvı üzerindeki olası etkileri ve bu etkilere sebep olan mekanizmaları ortaya koymayı hedeflemektedir.
