Endometriosis, a commonly overlooked condition that is plagued by diagnostic delays spanning 5 to 12 years (Patient Safety Network, 2020; Singh et al., 2020). Its nonspecific symptoms, comorbidity with other disorders, and normalization of symptoms all contribute in part to documented diagnostic delays.
Research shows that prolonged diagnostic delay correlates with increased symptom severity and increased healthcare costs (Surrey et al., 2020), emphasizing the urgent need for earlier diagnosis and improved treatment accessibility, alleviating the cost and frustrations for both physicians and patients alike.
Afynia’s diagnostic panel delivers actionable data for physicians and patients in days not years, transforming the diagnostic journey.
Comparable to the diagnostic gold standard, laparoscopy, EndomiR offers rapid, accurate identification of endometriosis in those with chronic pelvic pain or infertility, ensuring timely intervention and enhancing the standard of care for women.
- Earlier relief
- Improved quality of life
- Patient-physician clarity
- Referrel support
For the millions of people suffering from chronic pain, it can be a life saver to receive a diagnosis.
"This is the real deal. EndomiR is a revolutionary test that has transformed my practice and improved patient management. With this test, diagnostic physicians can now function fully by providing patients with objective data to support clinical diagnoses, eliminating theoretical assumptions."
