AnswerHello Racha from the U.S.
Having an Endometrioma (endometriotic cyst) gives you a diagnosis of stage four endometriosis. As such, your only real option is to do IVF. The problem is greater than can be treated by IUI because the pelvis is abnormal.
My recommendation is to see a competent RE so that you can be counseled and treated appropriately.
Good Luck,
