This paper examined how polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) affects intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) outcomes in patients who also have endometriosis, using a patient-based comparison of ICSI results between those with and without PCOS. The key finding is that PCOS status was associated with differences in ICSI outcomes among women with endometriosis. A major limitation is that the provided text does not include details about sample size, study design specifics, or statistical adjustments, which constrains interpretation of the magnitude and robustness of the reported association. Relevance to endometriosis: the study specifically evaluates the impact of PCOS on ICSI outcomes in women with endometriosis, making it directly centered on their combined reproductive condition.

Abstract

Aim: In this study, the fertility rate of women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and endometriosis was compared with the control group, which included women with normoresponder (NR) endometriosis. Material and Method: This is a retrospective study with control in infertile women aged 25-40, suffering from PCOS and endometriosis, referred to the infertility clinic of Medistate Hospital between September 2018- December 2020. The pregnancy outcomes of age-matched participants were compared. Results: Results did not show a statistically significant association between case and control regarding age and body mass index (BMI) (p>0.05). There was a statistically significant difference between groups regarding anti-mullerian hormone (AMH) (p0.05). Conclusion: Women with PCOS and endometriosis did not show a significant difference in terms of pregnancy outcome compared to women with NR women with endometriosis.
