Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
- Why is this ECGRI research study being done?
Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological
disorder often associated with lower abdominal pain, and inability to conceive.
It is estimated to affect 176 million women worldwide and ~26 million women in
India. Information on presentation, severity of endometriosis and associated
risk factors for endometriosis in India is scarce. Therefore, ECGRI study aims
to investigate different types of endometriosis, their clinical features,
presentations, severity and also identify genetic risk factors associated with
endometriosis in Indian women.

If you agree to participate, you will be required to sign the Informed Consent Form, provide the information as per the data collection instruments and you will be required to give blood samples as per the study protocol.
