Endometriosis, a chronic and frequently painful medical condition, impacts countless women globally. It involves the growth of tissue resembling the uterine lining outside the uterus, known as endometrial implants. These implants can develop on pelvic organs like the ovaries, fallopian tubes, and pelvic lining, and in rare instances, may extend beyond the pelvic area. Despite its widespread occurrence, awareness about its nature, development, and management remains limited among many individuals.
Traditionally characterized as a non-cancerous gynecological disorder, endometriosis involves the growth of endometrial tissue beyond the uterus, leading to pelvic pain, bleeding, and significant female infertility. Now recognized as a systemic disease, it impacts liver and fat tissue metabolism, causing systemic inflammation and altering gene expression in the brain, which can trigger pain and mood disorders.
In addition to affecting pelvic organs like the fallopian tubes and ovaries, endometrial tissue implants may also influence other tissues such as the bladder or bowels
Endometriosis can affect women of reproductive age, typically from their early teens to menopause. It is estimated that about 1 in 10 women worldwide grapple with endometriosis, making it a prevalent gynecological disorder.
Endometriosis comes in several types based on the location and severity of endometrial implants:
The precise cause of endometriosis remains elusive, yet several theories have been posited:
Endometriosis can present with various symptoms, ranging from mild to severe. Common manifestations include:
Identifying endometriosis poses challenges due to symptom overlap with other gynecological conditions. Diagnosis typically follows these steps:
Sattva Fertility boasts esteemed IVF specialists who offer comprehensive solutions for female infertility, encompassing consultation, diagnosis, treatment, and conception support. Prioritizing patient comfort, our centers ensure a nurturing environment throughout the journey.
Our doctor excel in managing cases necessitating laparotomy and laparoscopy. Moreover, we stand as the nation’s premier provider of assisted reproductive technology services.
The IVF process commences with ovarian stimulation using hormonal injections to induce the production of multiple eggs. Typically, around 15 eggs are retrieved during ovum pick-up. Simultaneously, a sperm sample is obtained from the partner and utilized for fertilization after preparation. Following fertilization, embryos are implanted into the uterus, with laser-assisted hatching techniques available for assistance. In cases of diminished ovarian reserve, donor eggs may be considered.
At Sattva Fertility Clinic, we are dedicated to addressing all facets of infertility. Our fertility specialists offer comprehensive support, elucidating the impact of endometriosis on fertility and devising tailored management strategies.
For those with endometriosis, even minor cases without physiological obstructions or adhesions hindering regular ovulation can lead to infertility. Surgical removal of significant endometriomas may enhance fertility for young patients, potentially performed before IVF to optimize chances of pregnancy.
Initiating IVF treatment may elevate estrogen levels, potentially exacerbating endometriosis. Inducing ovarian stimulation with Letrozole in endometriosis patients at Sattva Fertility Centres can mitigate estrogen levels, addressing this concern.
IVF often presents a viable solution for infertile individuals with endometriosis, boasting favorable success rates. Seeking assistance, even if not ready for pregnancy, is advisable to safeguard fertility, as untreated endometriosis may progress and compromise reproductive health.
IVF outcomes hinge on factors like fertilization, embryo quality, and implantation. Optimal pregnancy rates are observed when IVF is pursued 6-25 months post-endometriosis surgery.
Endometriosis may create an inflammatory pelvic environment detrimental to egg, sperm, and embryo viability. Severe cases can compromise endometrial receptivity, impeding embryo implantation. Thus, addressing endometriosis prior to IVF is pivotal for optimizing treatment outcomes.
