You may have struggled to conceive for many years, and your struggles with<a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwomanhood.org\/commonly-asked-questions-about-infertility-an-nw-infertility-faq-causes-treatments-organic-conceptions2020\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> infertility<\/a> may have been what clued you in that endometriosis might be a concern!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An estimated 30 &#8211; 50% of women with endometriosis experience infertility [1]. Why is infertility a symptom for some women suffering from endometriosis, and not for others? Part of the reason has to do with the location of the endometrial lesions within your body. But location is not the only contributing factor.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM), \u201cEndometriosis can influence fertility in several ways: distorted anatomy of the pelvis, adhesions, scarred fallopian tubes, inflammation of the pelvic structures, altered immune system functioning, changes in the hormonal environment of the eggs, impaired implantation of a pregnancy, and altered egg quality\u201d [1]. In this article, we&#8217;ll explore what it is about endometriosis that may lead to infertility, and what you can do about it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-contributes-to-infertility-when-you-have-endometriosis\"><span id=\"what-contributes-to-infertility-when-you-have-endometriosis\">What contributes to infertility when you have endometriosis<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>Scar Tissue<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Scar tissue is a natural type of tissue that develops after an injury. Endometriosis lesions will often cause the formation of scar tissues. Endometriosis-related scar tissue may distort anatomy and alter normal bodily functions. For example, scar tissue in the fallopian tubes may create physical blockages, preventing successful implantation. Additionally, scar tissue due to endometriosis on the cervix, vagina, or nearby areas may make sexual intercourse painful.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. <em>Adhesions<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adhesion formation is one way the body can respond to injury or surgery. Adhesions bind together with scar tissue two structures which would not normally be connected. With endometriosis, adhesions may occur from the presence of endometriosis lesions or as a result of surgery. Having adhesions present in the reproductive system can make it difficult for the organs to function normally. For example, adhesions on the fallopian tubes may prevent them from performing the natural movement that enables them to pick-up the egg after ovulation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One study reports, \u201cMajor pelvic adhesions or peritubal [surrounding the fallopian tube(s)] adhesions that disturb the tubo-ovarian liaison and tube patency can impair oocyte release from the ovary, inhibit ovum pickup, or impede ovum transport.\u201d[2] For natural conception, ovulation must occur. An egg must make it into the fallopian tube to become fertilized. When adhesions create physical blockages, this becomes impossible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. <em>Ovulatory Disorders<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Women with endometriosis may have disorders that result in poor or delayed ovulation. Examples include luteinized unruptured follicle (LUF) syndrome, a luteal phase defect, or anovulation [3]. LUF is an ovulatory disorder in which the dominant follicle containing the egg luteinizes, which means it develops towards ovulation, but it never ruptures and the egg isn\u2019t released [2]. One study reported that LUF is a major cause of infertility, occurring in 25-43% of women experiencing infertility [4]. A <a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwomanhood.org\/naturalwomanhood-org-fam-basics-luteal-phase\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">luteal phase<\/a> defect is characterized by a short luteal phase, usually caused by low <a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwomanhood.org\/fam-basics-progesterone\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">progesterone<\/a> levels. The uterine lining (also known as the <a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwomanhood.org\/fam-basics-everything-you-need-to-know-about-your-endometrium\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">endometrium<\/a>) may be unresponsive to progesterone, or the ovaries release insufficient amounts of progesterone. As a result, the uterine lining does not support normal implantation. Anovulation is a cycle where ovulation has not occurred, making natural pregnancy impossible. More on how to tell if you\u2019ve had or are having anovulatory cycles is <a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwomanhood.org\/what-to-do-about-anovulation-and-anovulatory-cycles\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4. <em>Distorted anatomy<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adhesions, scar tissue, inflammation, and lesion location all contribute to distorted anatomy that makes fertilization and implantation unsuccessful. After ovulation, an egg leaves the ovary and must enter the fallopian tubes to meet sperm for fertilization. Despite how 2-D anatomical images portray the ovaries and fallopian tubes&#8211; they are not attached. This means the egg has some traveling to do! When anatomy is distorted, the egg may have trouble entering the fallopian tubes for fertilization because the position of the ovaries has changed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>5. <em>Inflammation<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease which causes systemic inflammation. Inflammation leads to the production of natural biochemicals that can impair fertility in various ways. One study found, \u201cwomen with endometriosis have an increased volume of peritoneal fluid with a high concentration of activated macrophages, prostaglandins, IL-1, TNF, and proteases. These alterations may have adverse effects on the function of the oocyte, sperm, embryo, or fallopian tube\u201d [2].<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These inflammatory fluids also contribute to increased cramping that could subsequently interfere with implantation. According to one theory, inflammation associated with endometriosis causes the uterus to contract and prevents normal implantation. Researchers reported that \u201cabnormal uterine contractions may occur due to a cascade of biochemical products, including prostaglandins, released in the pelvic structures after irritation and inflammation. This theory may explain the failure of implantation in patients with endometriosis: abnormal uterine contractility may interfere with adhesion and subsequent penetration of the embryo on a predecidualized endometrium\u201d [2].&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>6. <em>Immune dysfunction<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After ovulation, <a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwomanhood.org\/fam-basics-progesterone\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">progesterone<\/a> suppresses the immune system to prevent the body from attacking a newly implanted embryo. With endometriosis, the immune system may be overactive, leading to an inappropriate immune response. This study reports that \u201celevated levels of IgG and IgA antibodies (autoantibodies to endometrial antigens) and lymphocytes may be found in the endometrium of women with endometriosis. These abnormalities may alter endometrial receptivity and embryo implantation\u201d [2]. In other words, the immune system may attack an embryo and\/or prevent implantation from even occurring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>7. <em>Lesion location<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You probably <a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwomanhood.org\/the-four-stages-of-endometriosis-and-what-they-mean-for-you\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">received a score or stage<\/a> when you were diagnosed with endometriosis. The oldest and most well-known staging system, last revised in 1996 by the <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/9130884\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM)<\/a>, classifies endometriosis as stage I, II, III, or IV based on how many lesions are identified during surgery as well as how deep they go [5]. But <a href=\"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/humrep\/article\/32\/2\/315\/2631390\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">critics point <\/a>to many flaws with this system, including its failure to \u201cdescribe deep endometriosis accurately,\u201d its \u201cpoor correlation with fertility outcomes,\u201d its \u201cvery poor correlation with pain symptoms and quality of life\u201d [6].&nbsp; Despite these limitations though, in general the more advanced the endometriosis is, the more likely the woman will struggle with infertility.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lesions on the fallopian tubes or ovaries may be associated with higher infertility rates. Some endometriosis lesions may be present on the fallopian tubes, leading to inflammation, and may even grow to block the fallopian tubes. If lesions are on the ovary, such as an endometrioma, ovulation may be suppressed entirely.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>8. <em>Cervical mucus<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides ovulation, <a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwomanhood.org\/fam-basics-what-is-cervical-mucus\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">cervical mucus<\/a> is another necessary part of the natural conception equation. Cervical mucus makes the vaginal pH hospitable to sperm and facilitates sperm transportation through the vagina and cervix into the uterus. It also extends the life of sperm from minutes or hours to five days. It\u2019s pretty important!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, many women with endometriosis lack quality fertile cervical mucus. According to Dr. Patrick Yeung, director of the Center for Endometriosis at Saint Louis University\u2019s School of Medicine, \u201cwomen with endometriosis can have irregular bleeding or abnormal bleeding (bleeding outside of menses) for cysts of endometriosis called endometriomas, luteal phase defects such as long luteal phase or short post-peak phase, and low mucus scores (this is specific to the Creighton system of FABM)\u201d [7]. Focusing on improving cervical mucus production may prove beneficial!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-chart-your-cycle\"><span id=\"chart-your-cycle\">Chart your cycle<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You are probably thinking, \u201cwhat in the world can I do now?\u201d As scary as infertility can be, most of these things discussed above are treatable! Cycle charting can be extremely helpful in identifying hormonal imbalances, ovulatory dysfunction, and other root causes of infertility often seen with endometriosis. For even more benefit, chart your cycle using the <a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwomanhood.org\/topic\/fertility-awareness-methods\/learn-a-method\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">FEMM, Creighton Model, or ChartNeo methods <\/a>which pair fertility awareness charting with medical management. These methods allow you to see a doctor who is experienced in interpreting cycle charts and can identify your specific root cause of infertility. Cycle charting can bring clarity to the situation, offer support through your instructor, and give you superb guidance through medical management.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"try-an-anti-inflammatory-diet\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Try an anti-inflammatory diet<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You may have read about following a gluten-free and\/or dairy-free diet to decrease endometriosis symptoms, especially pelvic pain. As the thinking goes, both gluten intake and dairy intake could potentially lead to increased inflammation in the body. Since endometriosis is characterized by inflammation, decreasing pro-inflammatory food source intake might lead to symptom relief. Adding in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/nutrition\/13-anti-inflammatory-foods#TOC_TITLE_HDR_12\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">anti-inflammatory foods<\/a> like fruits (especially berries), fatty fish, veggies, nuts, and seeds may also help decrease endometriosis-related pain. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Little research has been done on this topic, but what exists is promising. A <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/23334113\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">2012 study<\/a> of 207 women found that 75% reported a significant reduction in painful periods, painful sex, and pelvic pain symptoms after 12 months of following a gluten-free diet. 25% reported no improvement in symptoms, and <em>none<\/em> of the enrollees reported worsening symptoms.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, a <a href=\"https:\/\/obgyn.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1111\/ajo.12594\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">2017 study<\/a> of 160 women with endometriosis and irritable bowel syndrome symptoms found that 72% experienced bowel symptom relief of 50% or more after just 4 weeks of following a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hopkinsmedicine.org\/health\/wellness-and-prevention\/fodmap-diet-what-you-need-to-know\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">low-FODMAP <\/a>(fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides, and polyols) diet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC7044830\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">2020 qualitative interview study<\/a> of 12 women who experienced improved mental health and decreased pain after making dietary changes may also be of interest if you struggle with endometriosis symptoms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-oftentimes-surgery-can-help\"><span id=\"oftentimes-surgery-can-help\">Oftentimes, surgery can help<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to cycle charting as a starting point for addressing some of factors listed above, research suggests that fertility rates tend to improve after <a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwomanhood.org\/considering-endometriosis-surgery-heres-how-to-find-a-good-endo-surgeon\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">successful excision<\/a> of endometriosis lesions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In one study of 120 women with endometriosis, 79 (65.8%) became pregnant naturally after excision surgery [11]. This study reported that, \u201ccomplete removal of the endometriosis lesions may increase the chance of future pregnancy.\u201d Considering the many ways in which endometriosis can contribute to infertility, this makes sense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More specifics on what makes endometriosis surgery more likely to be successful are <a href=\"https:\/\/naturalwomanhood.org\/can-endometriosis-come-back-after-surgery-signs-of-endometriosis-returning\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Navigating infertility and endometriosis can be challenging, isolating, and confusing, but there is hope and you do have options!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>References:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n[1] ASRM. \u201cEndometriosis: Does It Cause Infertility?\u201d www.reproductivefacts.org.
