If you've been trying to conceive for a while, perhaps for six months or more, you've likely spent some time thinking about what might be causing a delay. One common factor we see in fertility is endometriosis.
Endometriosis is a condition where tissue like the lining of the womb grows elsewhere in the body, often in the pelvic area. This can cause significant pain, but it can also impact your ability to fall pregnant.
How does it affect fertility?
• It can cause inflammation and scar tissue in the pelvis.
• It may damage the eggs in your ovaries.
• It can potentially block or distort the fallopian tubes, making it harder for the egg and s***m to meet.
It's a challenging condition, but please know that it doesn't mean your dream of having a family is out of reach. We have effective ways to manage endometriosis and significantly improve your chances of conceiving.
For many patients, especially those with severe or complex endometriosis, specialised surgical treatment is one of the most effective steps we can take. As a specialist in advanced laparoscopic surgery, I focus on carefully removing the endometriotic tissue to restore the pelvic anatomy and give you the best chance for a natural pregnancy or a successful IVF journey.
Have you been trying to conceive, and suspect endometriosis might be playing a part, or if you've been told your case is too complex, I encourage you to book a consultation. I take the time to really listen to your story, find out what's going on, and build a truly tailored plan just for you.
You're not alone in this. Let's work together to take the next best step for your family.
