Across 22 studies, surgery before IVF did not establish a live-birth advantage. In endometrioma groups, AMH and egg yield were lower after surgery; pain and other surgical indications need separate assessment.
Interpreting the findings
Patient groups, methods and bias risks can differ across studies. A pooled estimate is not a personal treatment recommendation or a guarantee of benefit.
