Abstract

Endometriosis and infertility are clinically associated. The therapeutic approaches for endometriosis, whether medical or surgical, yield distinct outcomes for a woman's potential for achieving conception, whether through natural means or with the aid of assisted reproductive technology (ART). In this case report, a 29-year-old female and her 32-year-old partner, married for the last five years, sought assistance at our fertility clinic after having one failed in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycle. The patient had a history of dysmenorrhea and deep dyspareunia, suggesting the presence of an ovarian cyst. Transabdominal ultrasound and laparoscopy confirmed the existence of ovaries with adhesions and a chocolate cyst measuring 8 cm × 6 cm in dimensions. Cystectomy of ovarian endometriomas enhances the rate of spontaneous conception and reduces pain. Moreover, it has the potential to enhance the outcome of IVF. The successful outcome achieved through ART, specifically the intracytoplasmic sperm injection cycle, underscores the importance of technological advancements in overcoming infertile barriers. This case report exemplifies the personalized and innovative approaches available to couples undergoing fertility treatment.
