The NHS is moving toward faster, non-invasive endometriosis testing.
A BBC News report published on 7 July 2026 highlighted draft guidance recommending EndoSure and Endotest for use in NHS primary care in England and Wales, alongside regular clinical checks.
The same report called out the reality many patients know too well: endometriosis can affect 1 in 10 women, symptoms can be hard to identify, and diagnosis waits can run nine years or longer.
