How successful is the treatment of endometriosis?
In terms of pregnancy, the Canadian ENDOCAN (Endometriosis-Canada) study reported a cumulative rate of 30.7% after nine months for less advanced stages. Pregnancy rates higher than 60% were found, even with severe endometriosis. Treatment is also effective in relieving painful symptoms. It has been said that symptoms improve in 90% of patients, but there is a 20% chance of recurrence in the two years following treatment.
