Endometriosis and infertility.
نویسنده
چکیده
As we know, Endometriosis, is a common cause of pelvic pain and infertility in our female patients. The primary goal for treating these patients is to relieve pain and/or improve fertility. Despite extensive research, the management of endometriosis is unclear. The management pathway often depends upon the goal of the patient. Both medical and surgical treatment options are available, yet there is no evidence that any medical management will improve future fertility. Therefore, treatment decisions are often individualized for the patient with endometriosis. Patients suffering from symptomatic endometriosis will often benefit most from conservative surgical intervention, with the objective of resecting and ablating pelvic endometriosis while preserving the uterus and ovarian tissue for future fertility. Depending upon a patient’s age, her desire to conceive, and her current ovarian reserve, Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART) may be the best option for a patient prior to surgery, or immediately following surgery for endometriosis.
