Synopsis
Endometriosis is a complex
disease with a poorly understood aetiology. The Genetic variants, Early
Life exposures, and Longitudinal Endometriosis symptoms Study (GELLES)
aims to identify genetic and early life factors that contribute to
the development and progression of endometriosis. The outcomes of the
study will assist in the prediction of endometriosis to facilitate earlier
diagnosis for young women.
