Dr Karan Explores · Endometriosis Surgeon Explains What Everyone Gets Wrong - Dr Lora Liu · 13 Jul 2026 podcast

How often do you see that? voice-verified

And like how pathneumonic is that of a sign where you can say, Okay, this person's got endometriosis or something chronic in their pelvis? voice-verified

I think coming back full circle to this idea of how do we diagnose people earlier and how do we intervene earlier and find better therapies, it comes back to the question we topic we discussed a bit earlier in the conversation about voice-verified

What is the cause of endometriosis? voice-verified

And, you know, this year we saw the results of the largest genetic study of endometriosis. voice-verified

One point four million women with endometriosis had their DNA analyzed. voice-verified

It identified 80 genetic risk regions for endometriosis. voice-verified

Thirty-seven of them were completely brand new and previously unknown. voice-verified

So we know, I mean, you and other experts have known for years that the disease is biological. voice-verified

Not just about painful periods. voice-verified

But now, because of this data, we're beginning to see that real scientific proof that there are immune genetic components, inflammatory genetic components, vascular risk factors, all of these interesting and important things, hormones that we've known about for a long time. voice-verified

But also we've seen overlaps with endometriosis and other chronic diseases. voice-verified

Like migraines, fatigue, fibromyalgia phenotypes, adenomyosis, and endometriosis crossover. voice-verified

And you know, you could argue that they're basically, you know, different versions of the same condition. voice-verified

I guess the upshot of that paper was to suggest that there are several distinct genetic voice-verified

and phenotypic traits for endometriosis. voice-verified

It's it's a wide voice-verified

diverse range of conditions rather than just, you know, saying endometriosis is one thing. voice-verified

You know, almost similar, I don't want to keep harping on about it, but similar to cancer, where we use the word cancer as an umbrella term for hundreds of different conditions, right? voice-verified

From lymphomas to bowel cancer. voice-verified
