Endometriosis and inflammation: a study on surgery and fertility
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how inflammation in the body may affect endometriosis symptoms, surgery results, and future fertility. Researchers want to see if markers of inflammation can help predict outcomes for women with endometriosis.
