Understanding Fertility and Endometriosis
For many people with endometriosis, fertility challenges come as an unexpected and devastating reality.

Maybe you’ve been navigating failed treatments with no clear answers. You’re not alone.
This webinar brings together leading experts and a patient who has walked this path to break down the options—what works, what doesn’t, and how you can advocate for the care you deserve.
What You’ll Discover
- How endometriosis affects ovarian reserve, egg quality, and implantation

- When to consider egg freezing, IUI, or IVF—and how to maximize success

Maria Garrahan
Patient Advocate
Learn About Maria
Maria’s fertility struggles started long before she was ready to have a family. A childhood cancer survivor, she was told at a young age that pregnancy might not be possible. Her mother had endometriosis, and Maria was placed on birth control early due to pain—an uncommon but accurate diagnosis from her first OB-GYN.
As a teenager, she was offered laparoscopic surgery, but no one explained what delaying treatment could mean. Years later, she faced infertility, pregnancy complications, and worsening symptoms. After a failed FET and years of pain, she finally had excision surgery. Now, she’s navigating secondary infertility and IVF while sharing her journey to help others feel less alone.
Maria’s story is one of resilience, hard choices, and the reality of living with endometriosis while trying to build a family.
