BACKGROUND: An increasing number of atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH) or endometrial cancer (EC) patients with fertility requirements choose conservative management, such as oral high-dose progesterone. Most of them use assisted reproductive technology (ART) to become pregnant after experiencing remission. However, the outcome of pregnancy is not ideal, probably because of long-term drug application in large doses or invasive uterine cavity treatment.
CASE REPORT: We presented a case of AEH who underwent direct pregnancy with good results without any treatment for her pathological endometrium. We described her endometrial histological results pre-and post-pregnancy in detail, hitherto absent from reports on this topic.
CONCLUSIONS: Patients with a strong desire to bear children at the time of an AEH diagnosis could consider taking 1-2 years to try a pregnancy before treating their AEH.
