University of Queensland researchers have shown that endometriosis and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) share genetic risk factors, explaining why patients with one condition may also have the other.

The news comes from the largest ever study on endometriosis

The largest genetic study ever conducted on endometriosis has revealed significant overlap in genes associated with nearly a dozen other pain conditions, including migraines.

The largest ever genetic study of endometriosis finds genetic risk factors are also associated with other chronic pain types. 

University of Queensland researchers have contributed to the largest ever genetic study of endometriosis, finding new data about the variants that increase risk of the disease.
