- Access to the Ziwig Endotest – a non-invasive saliva test for endometriosis diagnosis.
- Consultants who take your pain seriously, without years of delay.
- On-site ultrasound scanning to support assessment.
- A personalised treatment plan covering pain management, hormonal treatment, or surgical referral.
- Both in-person and remote consultation options.
What Is Endometriosis?
Endometriosis is a condition where tissue similar to the lining of the womb grows outside the uterus, commonly affecting the ovaries, fallopian tubes, and pelvic lining. It affects around 1 in 10 women in the UK, yet average diagnosis time can stretch to several years, with many women seeing multiple doctors before being properly diagnosed.
Common symptoms include:
- Severe, worsening period pain.
- Pain during or after sex.
- Chronic pelvic pain, not limited to your period.
- Heavy or irregular bleeding.
- Fatigue.
- Digestive symptoms such as bloating, pain on passing stool, or bowel changes.
- Difficulty conceiving.
A Faster Path to Diagnosis: The Ziwig Endotest
Traditionally, definitive endometriosis diagnosis has relied on laparoscopy – a surgical procedure. The Ziwig Endotest offers a non-invasive alternative: a simple saliva sample analysed for microRNA patterns associated with endometriosis using next-generation sequencing and AI, with results typically available within a few weeks. This can significantly shorten the path to a clear diagnosis for suitable candidates.
Note: Clinical criteria apply. The test is generally indicated for women aged 18–43 with symptoms suggestive of endometriosis. We’ll confirm during your consultation whether this test is appropriate for you.
