What is the prevalence of endometriosis in the general population?
Definition
| Rate (age, sex ratio) | Context (population size studied, location, date data taken, end-point measured) | Definition of end-point | Reference |
|---|---|---|---|
| Prevalence of endometriosis is 2.0% and the annual incidence is less than 0.3% for women in their early forties. | n=4034, Sør-Trøndelag (Norway), endometriosis | [1] | |
| 16 million women (estimate) | EU member states, endometriosis | [2] | |
| Because of the need for surgical diagnosis, the prevalence of endometriosis in the general population is unknown. Estimates from asymptomatic fertile subpopulations undergoing tubal ligation have varied greatly from 0.7 – 43% around a mean of 4% (Eskanazi and Warner, 1997). However, up to 90% of those women were diagnosed with minimal or mild endometriosis. |
Endometriosis | Surgical diagnosis | [3] |
| 0.7% in women undergoing tubal anastomosis 1.6% for laparoscopic tubal ligation 11.3% for abdominal hysterectomy 31% for operative laparoscopy. On the basis of these data, a prevalence of 10 % can be estimated. |
