Does endometriosis increase miscarriage risk?
Yes—endometriosis is associated with a modest increase in miscarriage risk, particularly in the first trimester. Across large pooled studies, the increase is usually described as a relative risk around 1.2–1.7, and it can vary depending on factors like whether pregnancy occurs spontaneously or with fertility treatment.
Even with that increase, most pregnancies in people with endometriosis are successful. What matters most for an individual person is their full picture—age, prior pregnancy history, and whether adenomyosis or other uterine factors are also present. If you’ve had losses or are planning pregnancy and want an individualized assessment, our team can review your history and imaging and discuss what this risk may mean for you and what options may help support your goals.
