endometriosis infertility


endometriosis infertility
According to medical statistics is estimated that infertility can affect about 40% of women with endometriosis
Infertility can be one of the consequences of inflammation of the lining of the uterus. Women are not only dealing with the debilitating disease but also in fear of not being able to bear children.
But let's not paint a bleak picture here. It is fortunate that not all women who suffer from infertility, the lining of the uterus. (If all women who have endometriosis and infertility, and birth rates fall to a large extent and rush to find a successful treatment of this disease and it is hoped to be implemented.)
Interestingly, it was found that between 30 to 40 percent of women who had undergone abdominal operations telescope as part of the evaluation of infertility and found to have inflammation of the lining of the uterus. This is when women are finally diagnosed with the disease by default.
There seems to be a number of mechanisms by which the effects of endometriosis on fertility. Scarring, or adhesions in the pelvis, for example, may cause infertility. The fallopian tubes and ovaries may join the lining of the pelvis or to each other, and restricting their movement. The scar tissue and adhesions that are under way with Endometrisois may mean that the ovaries and fallopian tube is not in the right position, and therefore the transfer of the egg to the fallopian tube can not be done. Similarly, it can cause severe damage in the lining of the uterus migratory and / or blockage inside the fallopian tube, and to impede the march of the egg down the fallopian tube to the uterus.
Another factor that can cause infertility for women with endometriosis, may be excessive production of prostaglandin. These are hormones that play an important role in fertilization and embryo transplantation. A surplus of prostaglandins may interfere with these processes.
Because it often causes inflammation of the lining of the uterus intercourse painful, may fail couples to have intercourse during the time of the most fertile women, which clearly hamper the possibility of pregnancy.
