The etiology and pathophysiology of endometriosis-related infertility remain unclear, except for severe cases involving a mechanical factor.

AI-generated deep summary by claude@2026-06, 2026-06-07

This chapter reviews what is known about how endometriosis relates to infertility and how outcomes change in the context of in vitro fertilization, drawing on prior studies that address severe cases with a proposed mechanical factor, as well as ovarian reserve, endometrioma effects, surgical treatment timing, and ovarian stimulation protocols. Across the cited evidence, it synthesizes that neither endometriosis etiology nor its full pathophysiology in infertility has been fully elucidated, beyond certain severe presentations. A major limitation is that the chapter’s conclusions are dependent on heterogeneous data from multiple studies with differing stages and interventions rather than providing new experimental results. Relevance to endometriosis: The paper is centrally focused on endometriosis and specifically discusses endometriosis-associated infertility in relation to IVF outcomes, surgical management of endometriomas, and IVF/ICSI parameters.
