AI-generated summary by gemini-2.5-flash-lite, 2026-07-05

This study found that ovarian endometriomas up to 3 cm in diameter do not negatively impact IVF/ICSI outcomes, including embryo quality and pregnancy rates, despite a reduced response to ovarian stimulation.

This study analyzed how ovarian endometriomas up to 3 cm affect controlled ovarian stimulation and subsequent IVF/ICSI outcomes, comparing unoperated patients with infertility attributed to endometriomas versus patients with tubal-factor infertility. The paper reports that women with ≤3 cm endometriomas showed a lower ovarian response to gonadotropins, but the presence of these adnexal masses did not change embryo quality, the total number of embryos transferred, or implantation and clinical pregnancy rates relative to the tubal-factor group. A key limitation stated by the scope is that the findings apply to endometriomas sized up to 3 cm rather than larger lesions. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically, it examines the impact of ovarian endometriomas (≤3 cm) on ovarian stimulation and IVF/ICSI outcomes in unoperated women.

S. Odessa National Medical University, e-mail: [email protected] Summary The article analyzes the effect of ovarian endometriomas with sizes up to 3 cm in diameter on controlled ovarian stimulation and the results of IVF/ICSI in comparison with patients of cycles of assisted reproductive technologies concerning infertility associated with the tubal factor. It was found that, despite a lower response to gonadotropins, in patients with endometriomas no more than 3 cm in diameter, the presence of such adnexal masses does not affect the quality of embryos, the total number of embryos transferred to the patient, and the implantation and clinical pregnancy rates as compared to with patients with a tubal factor of infertility. Key words: ovarian endometrioma, infertility, controlled ovarian stimulation, artificial insemination, tubal factor.
