Abstract: Endometriosis can affect female fertility by reducing ovarian reserve, changing the immune system and pelvic anatomical structure, and reducing endometrial receptivity. Therefore, fertility should be protected and preserved in patients with endometriosis. For such patients, early diagnosis, standardized treatment and long-term management can help to protect fertility. In addition, measures such as embryo freezing, mature oocyte freezing and ovarian tissue freezing, can help to preserve fertility. Fertility protection requires a multidisciplinary consultation mechanism.

Key words: Endometriosis, Ovarian reserve, Fertility preservation, Assisted reproductive technology
