Tubercolosis is a frequent bacterial infection in less developed countries. Lung and lymph node localisations are common, while the genital apparatus is less involved. In this work 2 cases of cervical tuberculosis presenting with secondary amenorrhoea is reported. The diagnosis was confirmed by a histological and cytological examination of cervix. The patient was on a 6 month antituberculosis therapy to eliminate the lesions. The differential diagnoses and role of other diagnostic aids are discussed. An awareness of this entity is necessary while dealing with the patients with secondary arneorrhoea.
