In this episode, Prof Chapman explains why severe endometriosis can create a difficult fertility dilemma, especially when ovarian cysts need surgical removal. He shares how surgery for endometriomas, while sometimes necessary, can reduce ovarian reserve by damaging healthy ovarian tissue. Prof Chapman discusses why many fertility specialists now recommend doing IVF first, freezing embryos before surgery, and then transferring them later into a healthier uterine environment. He also covers when laparoscopy is still an important diagnostic tool, particularly after repeated failed embryo transfers, and outlines newer medical treatments that can help manage endometriosis symptoms once fertility is no longer the main focus.
