Environmental chemicals and endometriosis severity
Treatments studied
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 to 45 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with endometriosis.
- You live in the Paris region (departments 75, 77, 78, 91, 92, 93, 94, or 95).
- You have an MRI that was used to diagnose your endometriosis, taken within the last 5 years.
- You are covered by French social security.
