Study to identify biomarkers in endometriosis

If you have pelvic pain or have been diagnosed with endometriosis you may qualify to participate in a study to identify possible biomarkers in women with endometriosis.

Researchers at Oxford University are seeking female volunteers to participate in a research study looking at potential markers in endometriosis.

To qualify for the study you need to be:

about to commence medical or surgical treatment for endometriosis and/or pelvic pain

between the age of 18 and the menopause

otherwise healthy and a non smoker.

The study involves participants giving 4-5 blood, urine, and saliva samples, and possibly a tissue sample throughout a natural menstrual cycle or a treatment cycle.

By participating in this study YOU would be helping to move the field of endometriosis forward in terms of improving our understanding of the disease.
