Summary

This study looks at whether a simple saliva test, called Ziwig Endotest, can help doctors make better decisions for women with severe pelvic pain that may be endometriosis. About 2,500 women with negative or unclear imaging results will take the test. Researchers will see if the test results change treatment plans and reduce the number of exploratory surgeries (laparoscopies). The goal is to avoid unnecessary procedures and improve care.
