This reduction is exacerbated after surgery. Nevertheless, oocyte quality does not seem to be compromised in these patients. When embryos of good quality are obtained, in vitro fertilization outcomes are generally satisfactory. Oocyte cryopreservation may represent a fertility preservation option for women with planned and/or prior surgery, as it enables the collection of oocytes in advance. Given the diverse manifestations of endometriosis, which vary by type, age, and ovarian reserve, the decision to pursue oocyte cryopreservation should be weighed individually. Moreover, the potential benefits of this approach on future fertility must be carefully considered. Considering current guidelines, the most appropriate candidates for oocyte cryopreservation among women with endometriosis are: patients with bilateral endometriomas, typically larger than 3 cm; those with prior surgery for unilateral endometrioma who exhibit ipsilateral or contralateral recurrence; and those with unilateral endometrioma on a single ovary. However, the size criteria for endometrioma warrant further discussion. Conversely, oocyte cryopreservation is inadvisable for patients: with unilateral endometrioma smaller than 3 cm and good ovarian reserve; who have undergone surgery for bilateral endometriomas, regardless of recurrence; and who have diminished ovarian reserve. While consensus indicates that decisions regarding diminished ovarian reserve should be individualized, fertility preservation should often be considered for patients with serum anti-Müllerian hormone levels below 0.5 ng/mL.
