These include medical treatment, surgical treatment and a combination of both. When these options fail to produce a pregnancy, assisted reproduction is resorted to, ranging from intrauterine insemination (IUI) for minimal and mild cases of endometriosis to IVF and ICSI for those who do not achieve a pregnancy with IUI and for more advanced cases [1]. However, the clinical outcomes of IVF in patients with endometriosis-associated infertility seem to be diminished in comparison to patients suffering from tubal or unexplained infertility. - Type - Chapter - Information - 50 Big Debates in Reproductive Medicine , pp. 106 - 108Publisher: Cambridge University PressPrint publication year: 2021 Sallam, HN, Garcia-Velasco, JA, Dias, S, Arici, A.
