Patient's question:
I've been married to my husband for over ten years without being able to get pregnant. Eventually, we decided to give up waiting and consider IVF. However, after a thorough check-up, I found out that I have ovarian cysts, which made me very worried. I also want to ask the doctor if ovarian cysts affect the culture dish.Doctor's answer:
If there are ovarian cysts, they may interfere with the endocrine function of the ovaries, leading to endocrine disorders, menstrual disorders, which are also causes of infertility. Since the cause of infertility has been identified, it is necessary to actively treat it first. In vitro fertilization is the last resort after trying various methods. If the ovarian cysts are completely cured after laparoscopic treatment, and menstruation returns to normal, it may be possible to conceive naturally. The success rate of in vitro fertilization is about 40%, and ovarian inflammation can reduce the success rate.
