The intricate \nnature of endometriosis-related infertility, stemming from the distortion of pelvic \nanatomy, inflammatory processes within the pelvic cavity, and adverse effects on \novarian follicles and ovulation, remains only partially understood. This book delves \ninto the nuanced impact of various manifestations of endometriosis, including ovar-\nian endometriomas and deep infiltrating endometriosis, on reproductive potential.\nA significant emphasis is placed on the utilization of ultrasonography for the \ndiagnosis of endometriosis in individuals struggling with infertility, alongside \nadvanced imaging techniques to evaluate tubal patency. The therapeutic landscape, \nencompassing intrauterine insemination and in vitro fertilization, will be explored \nin depth to illuminate their roles in overcoming endometriosis-induced reproductive \nhurdles. Furthermore, the consequences of surgical intervention for endometriosis \non natural fertility and the efficacy of assisted reproductive technologies will be \nthoroughly examined.\nAdditionally, this volume sheds light on the influence of endometriosis on endo-\nmetrial receptivity and introduces the critical concept of fertility preservation for \nwomen diagnosed with this condition. Designed as an essential resource, this book \naims to equip reproductive surgeons, sonographers, and IVF specialists with com -\nprehensive insights into the multifaceted relationship between endometriosis and \ninfertility.\nI extend my heartfelt gratitude to the esteemed international experts whose con-\ntributions have enriched this work, making it an indispensable tool for healthcare \nprofessionals dedicated to the care of those affected by endometriosis.\nGenova, Italy Simone Ferrero\nPreface\n\nvii\n  The Epidemiology of Infertility in Women with Endometriosis . . . . . . . . .    1\nNicola Berlanda, Francesca Chiaffarino, Elena Roncella, Giovanna \nEsposito, and Fabio Parazzini\n  Endometriosis and Infertility: The Comorbidities  . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .    9\nTommaso Capezzuoli, Flavia Sorbi, Silvia Vannuccini, Roberto Clarizia, \nMarcello Ceccaroni, and Felice Petraglia\n  Impact of the Endometriomas on the Ovarian Follicles . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .   19\nPaul J.
