If you've been told that surgery is your only answer for endometriosis—or maybe you've already had excision surgery and you're still struggling to get pregnant—this episode is for you.
Excision surgery can be one of the most valuable tools available for women with endometriosis when it's performed by a highly skilled surgeon. But surgery alone doesn't treat the underlying immune dysfunction, inflammation, or metabolic factors that influence how endometriosis behaves. In this episode, I'm breaking down what excision surgery can and cannot do, why fertility doesn't always improve after surgery alone, and how supporting your body before and after surgery can dramatically change your long-term fertility outcomes.
"Your genes may load the gun, but your environment often pulls the trigger." - Brooke Boskovich.
In This Episode, You'll Learn:
Why endometriosis is a whole-body inflammatory disease—not just a reproductive condition
The difference between excision surgery and ablation surgery
Why excision surgery has lower recurrence rates

How immune dysfunction affects fertility with endometriosis
