Summary
Endometriosis is a common, chronic disease. 30% to 50% of women with endometriosis are
infertile. There is moderate quality evidence that laparoscopic surgery to treat mild and
moderate endometriosis increases live birth or ongoing pregnancy rates. There was no evidence
of benefit for post-surgical hormonal suppression of endometriosis compared to surgery alone
for the outcomes of pregnancy rates. Past studies have confirmed that Chinese herbal medicine
can inhibit post-surgical endometriosis recurrence, increase pregnancy rate.This study
evaluates the efficacy and safety of Traditional Chinese Medicine Sequential Treatment of
endometriosis-associated infertility. The study objective is to confirm that clinical
pregnancy rate of patients with endometriosis-associated infertility post-conservative
surgery accepting Chinese medicine activating blood, dredging liver and nourishing kidney
sequential treatment is higher than expectant treatment.
