Pregnant women with endometriosis may be at higher risk for certain adverse pregnancy outcomes and may therefore benefit from additional monitoring. However, additional research is needed to confirm these associations and should focus on ensuring studies have internal and external validity, as well as, investigate the potential for differences in endometriosis phenotypes. Moreover, future research should focus on understanding potential mechanisms of association and better understanding how early interventions, through increased monitoring or screening during pregnancy, may improve outcomes.
