Navigating Endometriosis

Endometriosis is a common condition that can affect fertility through varied mechanisms. Early diagnosis and a tailored treatment plan are essential for success.

Impact on Ovarian Reserve

Endometriomas, or ‘chocolate cysts,’ can impact the number of viable eggs. Surgical management must be balanced carefully with fertility goals.

Assisted Reproduction

Many women with endometriosis achieve successful pregnancies through IVF, which bypasses many of the pelvic environment challenges.
