Epidemiology of infertility in women with endometriosis
Endometriosis is a benign, chronic, inflammatory condition affecting up to 10 % of women and characterised by the presence of glands and stroma tissue outside the uterus. Epidemiological and clinical studies demonstrate a consistent association between endometriosis and infertility. However, this relationship is far to be clearly understood and several mechanisms are involved. Available data show that patients with endometriosis have an increased estimated risk of infertility between two and four times compared with the general population. On the other hand, the probability of patients with infertility to have endometriosis is reported up to about 50 % of the cases. Future studies should aim to better elucidate the mechanisms behind endometriosis-associated infertility in order to offer the more appropriate and tailored management for the patients.
期刊介绍:
In practical paperback format, each 200 page topic-based issue of Best Practice & Research Clinical Obstetrics & Gynaecology will provide a comprehensive review of current clinical practice and thinking within the specialties of obstetrics and gynaecology.
All chapters take the form of practical, evidence-based reviews that seek to address key clinical issues of diagnosis, treatment and patient management.
Each issue follows a problem-orientated approach that focuses on the key questions to be addressed, clearly defining what is known and not known. Management will be described in practical terms so that it can be applied to the individual patient.
