Ethanol treatment before IVF for endometrioma removal
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests whether injecting ethanol into endometriomas (benign ovarian cysts from endometriosis) before IVF can improve fertility outcomes. It may be considered if you have endometriomas within a specific size range and no major issues that affect IVF success.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your blood test shows AMH above 0.3 ng/mL
- You have an endometrioma on one or both ovaries
- Your largest endometrioma is between 40 and 100 mm
- You have had fewer than 3 failed IVF or embryo transfer attempts
- Your periods are regular (no menstrual cycle abnormalities)
- You do not have certain conditions like fibroids, hydrosalpinx, uterine abnormalities, or suspected cancer

This study tests a procedure called ethanol sclerotherapy for treating endometriomas (ovarian cysts from endometriosis). The goal is to shrink the cyst and possibly improve fertility without surgery.
This study tests if injecting alcohol into ovarian endometriosis cysts can reduce pelvic pain and improve quality of life. It may offer a less invasive option for women with persistent cysts.
This trial tests a minimally invasive surgery (laparoscopy) that uses an alcohol solution to shrink ovarian cysts caused by endometriosis. It may offer an alternative to traditional cyst removal while preserving more ovarian tissue.
This study tests a procedure called sclerotherapy to shrink ovarian cysts (endometriomas) instead of removing them surgically. The goal is to preserve your ovarian tissue and fertility while treating pain or helping with fertility treatments like IVF.
This study tests a surgical technique to remove ovarian cysts caused by endometriosis while preserving as much healthy ovary as possible. It is designed for women who want to preserve their fertility and plan to conceive after surgery.
This study compares two approaches for women with uterine fibroids who are undergoing IVF: having surgery to remove the fibroids first, or going straight to IVF without surgery. The goal is to see which approach leads to better pregnancy outcomes.
