Depends: Your fertility outcome will depend on the extent and severity of all these conditions and level of involvement of the tubes. Age also plays a factor in success. If endometriosis is milder, fertility may not be impaired significantly. If fibroids are small and not close to the cavity, again, fertility may not be impaired significantly. As these problems worsen, that may impair fertility.

What did your MD say: After the surgery, your gyn should have discussed fertility issues. Chances of conception are highest in the first six months after endometriosis surgery. If you had fibroids removed, you may need to wait before trying to get pregnant.
