Who might be able to join this trial:
- You are able to understand and agree to participate in the study on your own.
- You were born female and are of childbearing age (meaning you could potentially become pregnant).
- You are between 18 and 50 years old (inclusive).
- You are not pregnant at either of the first two study visits.
- You do not have any overall health conditions or pelvic problems that the study doctor thinks could interfere with the tissue collection or put you at risk.
- You have not had surgery (such as cutting or burning tissue) or received a specific hormone treatment for endometriosis in the past 12 months.
- For Groups 1 and 2: Your doctor suspects you have endometriosis or you have already been diagnosed with it, and your doctor has recommended keyhole (laparoscopic) surgery — or you have had such surgery in the past 12 months for diagnosis purposes only, with no surgical treatment of endometriosis at that time.
- For Group 3: You are not suspected of having endometriosis, have no previous diagnosis or symptoms of it, and have had or are scheduled to have keyhole surgery for another reason (such as a tubal ligation or another abdominal procedure), with no signs of endometriosis found during that surgery.
Who may not be able to join:

- You have a history of cancer affecting your reproductive organs.
- You have any condition the study doctor believes would interfere with collecting or analysing tissue samples (confirm with trial site).
