Impact of Endometriosis on Fertility & Pregnancy

One prevalent cause of infertility is endometriosis. This may occur if endometrial tissue grows around the fallopian tubes or ovaries, where it may also leave scar tissue and induce inflammation. Additionally, tissue can grow on other pelvic organs as well as, in certain situations, outside of the pelvis. This endometrial tissue has the potential to develop into the uterine muscle in certain individuals, leading to an additional type of endometriosis known as adenomyosis. It has also been demonstrated that endometriosis affects the immune system, modifies the hormonal environment surrounding the eggs, prevents embryo implantation, and changes the quality of the eggs. The majority of the time, endometriosis and any associated scar tissue may be removed, and this can relieve your symptoms, including your ability to become pregnant.
