This integrative literature review examines the multifaceted impact of endometriosis on the sexual health, fertility, and overall quality of life in women of reproductive age. By analyzing eighteen studies published between 2020 and 2026, the authors identify deep dyspareunia and psychological stress as primary drivers of complex sexual dysfunctions, including reduced desire and anorgasmia. The findings further indicate that anatomical distortions and altered endometrial receptivity significantly compromise fertility, often necessitating assisted reproductive technologies, while delayed diagnosis exacerbates socioemotional deterioration. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically its comprehensive effects on sexuality, fertility, and quality of life in reproductive-aged women.
