Abstract

Endometriosis is a chronic disease in which lesions resembling endometrial tissue are found outside the uterus, mainly in the pelvis or abdomen. It may affect 10% of women of childbearing age. It is the cause of a significant alteration in quality of life and a major cost to the health system. Few research teams are working on this subject, and its pathophysiology is still poorly understood. This article proposes avenues of reflection for research on endometriosis in France, notably based on the mobilization of related scientific communities (involved in cancer, development, epigenetics, and neurosciences research studies).
