Could a simple measurement help spot endometriosis earlier?
NCT ID NCT05951452
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked at 40 women to see if a physical measurement called anogenital distance (AGD) and certain hormone levels differ between those with and without endometriosis. Researchers measured AGD and took blood and saliva samples before and after showing an empathy-inducing video. The goal was to better understand how endometriosis develops, not to test a treatment.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If successful, this research could help identify early physical markers for endometriosis, potentially leading to earlier diagnosis.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed observational study, not a treatment trial. The findings may not apply to all women with endometriosis and need further validation.
