Summary

This study looks at fluid and tissue samples from the uterus and ovaries of women with moderate to severe endometriosis. Researchers want to find biological markers that explain why some women with endometriosis have trouble getting pregnant. The goal is to improve fertility treatments by understanding what happens in the body before an embryo implants.

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 could identify new ways to diagnose and treat infertility in women with endometriosis, leading to more personalized fertility care.
What could go wrong
This is an early exploratory study with no treatment being tested. It may not find clear biomarkers or lead to immediate clinical changes.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

We are going to recruit 30 patients who undergo fertility preservation or fertility treatment before endometriosis surgery in the Reproductive Medicine Clinic in Karolinska University Hospital. Our patients are diagnosed with stage III/IV endometriosis according to rASRM staging by using ultrasound. The control group will consist of 60 healthy women without endometriosis signs in the ultrasound who present to our clinic as oocyte donors or for fertility treatment because of male factor or pregenetic testing for genetic diseases of the partner

Ages

18 to 40 years

Sex

Female participants only

Healthy volunteers

Accepted

You do not need to have the condition being studied to take part.
