Endometriosis and fertility: specialist Q&A
A Canadian fertility specialist answers common questions about endometriosis: how it is diagnosed, how it can affect fertility, and how it is considered when planning treatment.
Helpful if you have endometriosis, or suspect it, and want to understand how it fits into fertility care.
Endometriosis affects people very differently. Decisions about surgery, medication or moving to IVF are individual and are made with your own gynaecologist or fertility specialist.
Key takeaways
- Endometriosis is diagnosed and staged in different ways, and symptoms do not always match severity.
- Its effect on fertility varies from person to person.
- Surgery before IVF may help some people and not others; this is an individual discussion.
