Laparoscopic treatment of endometriosis in patients with failed in vitro fertilization cycles

Endometriosis is one of the most common gynecologic disorders and is significantly more prevalent in the setting of infertility. The prevalence of endometriosis in infertile women ranges from 25% to 50% compared to 5% in fertile women. Successful laparoscopic management of all stages of endometriosis was reported as early as 1986. This has revolutionized the management of endometriosis. The benefits of surgical therapy for infertility associated with endometriosis have been well documented.

Pros and Cons of C-Section on Demand in Low Risk Patients

I think the problem was mainly put on the physicians because it was perceived that in the private sector the cesarean sections were done for monetary reasons. Currently, the issue is becoming a broader one because the women themselves want a cesarean section on request.

Conception Rate in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

Polycystic ovary syndrome is characterized by enlarged ovaries, multiple peripherally arranged cysts and increased stromal density(1). Polycystic ovary syndrome is responsible for approximately 25-30% of infertility in women, which is mainly anovulatory(2). Ovulation can be induced with antiesterogens in many women but a proportion fail to respond and even in those who ovulate, the pregnancy rate is often low and the miscarriage rate is high.

Nonsurgical Management of Uterine Fibroids

Fibroids are the most common benign tumors of the uterus. These noncancerous growths are present in 20-40% of women over the age of 35. In some women, the fibroids can become enlarged and cause symptoms of excessive bleeding and pain. While the classic treatment of symptomatic fibroids has been surgical removal of the fibroids (myomectomy) or the uterus (hysterectomy) recent advances now afford a nonsurgical treatment.
