Read our Endometriosis research guide →This trial is testing a new blood test called EndoCheck that may help doctors diagnose endometriosis — a painful condition where tissue similar to the uterine lining grows outside the uterus. The researchers want to see how accurate this blood test is compared to surgery, which is currently the only definitive way to diagnose endometriosis. If successful, the test could help women get diagnosed without needing surgery.
Currently, the only way to truly diagnose endometriosis is through surgery (laparoscopy), which is invasive and carries risks. This trial exists to see whether a simple blood test could reliably detect endometriosis, offering women a faster, safer alternative to surgical diagnosis.

If you enroll, you would provide a blood sample for the EndoCheck test around the time you're already scheduled for your laparoscopic or laparotomy surgery. The researchers will compare the results of your blood test to what the surgery findings show, to see how well the blood test accurately detects endometriosis. There are no additional visits or treatments beyond your already-planned surgery.
