Infertility affects roughly one in six couples worldwide with the prevalence ranging between approximately 12.6% and 17.5% of the adult population. In the Netherlands, 11.4% of women wishing to conceive suffer from infertility. This can significantly compromise quality of life (van der Linden et al., 2004; Aarts et al., 2011; Cox et al., 2022). The most common causes of infertility include tubal pathology and pelvic adhesions.
