Congress of the Mediterranean Society for Reproductive Medicine, Heraklion, 10/2011

This year’s international congress of the Mediterranean Society for Reproductive Medicine was dedicated to one of the most challenging conditions in women’s health — endometriosis. Greek and international experts in endometriosis discussed all the latest data on its diagnosis and management.

Invited lecture:

Fertility preservation in patients with endometriosis

Is fertility preservation feasible — and necessary — in women with endometriosis? Fertility preservation is now possible regardless of whether the woman has a partner. Endometriosis itself, and its surgical management, both reduce female fertility. Timely information about fertility-preservation options for these women is imperative.
