Silvia Azaña, an embryologist at inviTRA, tells us in this video whether endometriosis is synonymous with infertility.

No. Endometriosis is one potential cause of infertility in women. However, this does not mean that all women with endometriosis will have fertility problems. It is estimated that between 30% and 50% of women diagnosed with endometriosis have problems when trying to conceive. The difficulty in achieving a pregnancy will fundamentally depend on the severity of the endometriosis and from the different areas affected by endometrial tissue presence.
