TREATMENTS AVAILABLE F O R INFERTILITY DUE TO ENDOMETRIOSIS
Less than a decade ago those who were infertile due to endometriosis may have been destined to never become pregnant. Due to the advancement of drug therapies and programmes such as in-vitro fertilisation (IVF), gamete intra fallopian transfer (GIFT) and related programmes, infertility does not necessarily mean that you will never conceive.
Establishing infertility
Usually the first thing is to try to conceive for a year without using contraception. A Melbourne IVF specialist says that approximately 10% to 15% of couples will not conceive in that time. ‘At that stage we feel that it is time to start investigations and try to pinpoint any problem’, he said.
The first step is to get a referral to a gynaecologist. Most women with endometriosis will already be under a specialist who may also manage their infertility investigation but they may be referred to an infertility specialist.
