Endometriosis and Failed Implantation: Why High-Quality Embryos Don’t Stick | Dr. Sadikah Behbehani

If you’ve ever been told your embryos are “high quality” but your transfers keep failing, this episode will change how you think about implantation. In this powerful and science-forward conversation, Dr. Erica Bove sits down with Dr. Sadikah Behbehani — board-certified Reproductive Endocrinologist and fellowship-trained Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgeon — to unpack one of the most overlooked causes of IVF failure: endometriosis. Up to 50% of women undergoing IVF may have undiagnosed endometriosis. Yet many are told everything “looks normal.” In this episode, we explore: • Why high-quality embryos fail to implant • The role of inflammation in recurrent implantation failure • Silent endometriosis and unexplained infertility • When to consider laparoscopy • Excision surgery vs. Lupron suppression • How endometriomas impact egg quality and ovarian reserve • Adenomyosis and its effect on embryo transfer outcomes • Natural pregnancy rates after endometriosis surgery • What REIs may miss — and when to advocate for deeper evaluation Dr. Behbehani explains why endometriosis is not just a pain disorder — it is an inflammatory disease that can distort anatomy, disrupt egg development, and interfere with implantation, even when embryos are genetically normal. This episode is essential listening for anyone navigating IVF, recurrent failed transfers, diminished ovarian reserve, chronic pelvic pain, or a diagnosis of “unexplained infertility.” If you’ve felt like something is being missed in your fertility journey, this conversation offers clarity, nuance, and a path forward grounded in both love and science.
