Abstract
Endometriosis stands out as the predominant issue among gynecological disorders. Approximately 50% of women experiencing infertility have been observed to be affected by endometriosis. Growing evidence indicates that endometriomas, in isolation, might adversely affect ovarian physiology. Medications such as ethinyl estradiol and levonorgestrel have been found to contribute to the amelioration of ovarian cysts in women of reproductive age. Presently, there are limited alternatives available for addressing the infertility associated with endometriosis. The primary effective approaches for treatment still revolve around surgery and assisted reproductive technology for endometriosis-related infertility. This case study centers on the utilization of ethinyl estradiol and levonorgestrel in patients with ovarian endometrioma, leading to an enhancement in the likelihood of achieving a successful clinical pregnancy.
