Endometriose und Infertilität

This paper reviews how endometriosis can act as a fertility barrier, attributing impaired reproductive outcomes to both immunological factors and local mechanical alterations, and discusses how assisted reproductive technologies (ART) have generated detailed observations across folliculogenesis, fertilization, embryo morphology, and implantation. It highlights ongoing controversy about whether endometriosis remains a major limiting factor for ART success despite advances in reproductive medicine, with the review focusing on IVF- and ART-related pregnancy outcomes. A key caveat explicitly acknowledged is that debate persists and the question of endometriosis’s true impact on reproductive medicine outcomes remains unresolved. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically, it focuses on endometriosis and infertility and the implications for ART/IVF outcomes.
