Could egg freezing reveal hidden womb conditions?
NCT ID NCT06211569
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study will use pelvic ultrasound to check for endometriosis and adenomyosis in 400 women aged 29–37 who are freezing their eggs for non-medical reasons. Researchers will compare imaging findings with symptoms, anxiety, depression, and quality of life. The goal is to understand how common these conditions are in this group and how they affect well-being.
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 study could show that many women seeking elective egg freezing have undiagnosed endometriosis or adenomyosis, leading to earlier detection and better fertility counseling.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It only measures prevalence and associations, so it won't directly improve health outcomes. Results may not apply to all women.
