Menstrual Stem Cells for Endometriosis Treatment
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether stem cells from menstrual blood can help treat endometriosis, a painful condition where tissue grows outside the uterus. Researchers will compare women with endometriosis to healthy controls to understand how these cells might reduce symptoms.
