About HerResolve™

HerResolve™ is a multi-omic, blood-based diagnostic assay developed by HerAnova Lifesciences to aid in the diagnosis of endometriosis in symptomatic women of reproductive age. The test integrates microRNA, protein, and a hormone biomarker analyzed through a proprietary machine learning framework. HerResolve™ is the first and only commercially available non-invasive blood test developed to detect endometriosis, currently accessible at select IVF and reproductive medicine centers across the United States.

Endometriosis affects approximately 1 in 10 women of reproductive age, yet diagnosis often takes seven to ten years, largely because the current gold standard requires invasive laparoscopic surgery. HerResolve™ was developed to complement existing clinical pathways as a non-invasive triage tool, helping to identify patients who may benefit from further diagnostic evaluation or empirical treatment, reserving surgery for treatment rather than diagnosis of endometriosis.
