“…Several studies have shown that reducing the number of holes per each ovary will result in decreased risk of consequent adhesion formation. Jamal [14] showed that electrocauterization of only one ovary will result in decreased risk of subsequent adhesion formation with achieving favorable result [14]. However, it is postulated that decreaseing the number of holes will result in decreased efficacy of the procedure.…”

“…Only 4 RCTs reported the outcome of live births [7,9,22,25]. Low quality of evidence allowed for the inability to determine difference in live births between unilateral and bilateral LOD (Table 2; p = 1.00) [5,6,17,18,21−23]; 10 or 5 punctures per ovary (Supplemental Table 1; p = .35) [7,8]; bilateral LOD with bipolar versus monopolar diathermy (Supplemental Table 2; p = .18) [9,10,12−14, 19,20,24−28], bilateral LOD using CO 2 laser compared with monopolar diathermy (Supplemental Table 2; p = .37) [9,10,12−14,19,20,24−28].…”

“…The main adverse effect is the risk of periovarian adhesion formation, depending on specific techniques used (7)(8)(9). For this reason, some authorities advocate a strategy of minimizing the number of holes in each ovary, with the intention of reducing the periovarian adhesion, and they have even suggested cauterization of only one ovary (20). It appears that reduction of the ovarian surface injury affects the efficacy of the procedure.…”
