This narrative review investigated difficulties in the early diagnosis of endometriosis and its relationship to female infertility by searching SciELO, PubMed/MEDLINE, and BVS for studies published from 2001 to 2021, using descriptors related to endometriosis, early diagnosis, female infertility, and treatment alternatives. Across the included literature, the paper highlights that endometriosis has uncertain etiopathogenesis, and that this uncertainty—together with a lack of information—contributes to delays in diagnosis, which can affect patients’ ability to recover, alongside the condition’s links to chronic pelvic pain and infertility. A major limitation is that the review is narrative rather than systematic, and it does not specify a narrower evidence grading or selection strategy beyond database searching and descriptor use. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it reviews barriers to early diagnosis and connects these issues to infertility in women.
