Surgery for female infertility was very common in the US until the late 1990's. We used to perform laparoscopic evaluation of the pelvic area on the majority of women that were having trouble getting pregnant - if her male partner had a fairly normal semen analysis.
However, as in vitro fertilization success rates improved dramatically in the mid to late 1990's, women with fertility problems and their fertility specialist doctors moved on to IVF sooner than in the past, and as a result, there was much less pelvic surgery done for infertility.
There is currently much less laparoscopic surgery being done for infertility. However, it is still appropriate in some situations, and some women will even prefer surgery to IVF.
