Endométriose et infertilité
Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease affecting women of reproductive age, with established links to infertility, although the precise causal factors remain poorly understood due to disease diversity and unclear pathophysiology.

This chapter reviews endometriosis as a frequent gynecologic disease (estimated prevalence 6–10%) affecting women of reproductive age and discusses the link between endometriosis and infertility, while noting that the specific causative factors for infertility in endometriosis remain incompletely understood. It attributes this uncertainty in part to the heterogeneity of endometriosis and the limited elucidation of its pathophysiology. As a caveat, the chapter emphasizes that despite many studies demonstrating an association with infertility, the underlying mechanisms are still not well established. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically, it examines endometriosis-related infertility and the unresolved mechanisms underlying impaired fertility.
