Endometriosis markers in menstrual blood
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks for signs of endometriosis in menstrual blood collected with a menstrual cup. It could help find better ways to diagnose the condition.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Women aged 18 to 45 who have periods
- Already used a menstrual cup before
- Live or work in the Paris metropolitan area (Ile de France)
- For those with endometriosis: diagnosis by surgery or imaging (ultrasound/MRI) and pain level above 3 or infertility
- For those without endometriosis: low pain levels and no history of severe period pain in adolescence

This study looks at how certain environmental chemicals (called persistent organic pollutants) in your blood might relate to the severity of your endometriosis. By taking a blood sample and reviewing your MRI, researchers hope to understand more about the condition, which could help improve care in the future.
This study collects menstrual blood and cheek-swab DNA to better understand endometriosis. It may help researchers find markers that could eventually lead to earlier diagnosis and improved treatment planning.
This study looks at what causes endometriosis by comparing healthy people and those with a clear diagnosis. You may join if you have regular periods and haven't used hormonal treatments in the last 3 months.
This study looks at menstrual blood and tissue from the uterus to better understand conditions like endometriosis. It is not a treatment trial, but by participating, you can help researchers find new ways to diagnose and treat these conditions in the future.
This study tests whether a new blood test can accurately detect endometriosis (tissue similar to uterine lining growing outside the uterus). You may qualify if you menstruate regularly, are between 14–49 years old, and either have confirmed endometriosis, had a negative laparoscopy (a scope procedure), or have no endometriosis symptoms.
This study looks at immune cells and the substances they release in women with endometriosis. It aims to better understand the disease and may lead to new insights for treatment.
