* Free of systemic or pelvic disorder that, in the opinion of the investigator, may interfere with the tissue collection procedure, analysis of the tissue or increase the risk to subject.
* Must not have received excision or ablation surgical procedure or treatment, such as gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), for endometriosis within the past 12 months.
* For Cohort 1 and 2:
* Suspected of having endometriosis, or previously diagnosed with endometriosis, and currently recommended for laparoscopic surgery by physician.
* Must have laparoscopic surgery within 60 days after screening Visit 0 and any time after the endometrial biopsy is obtained on Visit 1 (including the same day), or a laparoscopy on record within the 12 months prior to Visit 0 for diagnosis only.
* Surgical report from prior laparoscopy must indicate that endometriosis was not treated with surgical ablation or excision.
* Subjects will be assigned to Cohort 1 or 2 based on diagnosis and staging results from laparoscopy.
* Or for Cohort 3:
* Not suspected of having endometriosis
* no previous diagnosis or symptoms of endometriosis, who have had a laparoscopy for another reason, such as tubal ligation or other abdominal procedure, within the past 12 months prior to screening Visit 0,
* or laparoscopy to be completed within 60 days after screening Visit 0 and any time after the endometrial biopsy is obtained on Visit 1 (including the same day).
* Surgeon's report must have no supplemental observations of endometriosis lesions or diagnosis. Subjects will be assigned to Cohort 3.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Younger than 18 or 51 years or older.
* Surgical history of hysterectomy.
* Has received excision or ablation surgical procedure or treatment, such as gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), for endometriosis within the past 12 months.

* Has a BMI 40 or above.
* Is currently taking a blood thinner medication.
* Currently, pregnant, breast feeding, or has given birth in the last 6 months.
* Diagnosed with HIV, AIDS, hepatitis A, B, or C, or has active malignancy.
* Has a complicating condition that would pose a hazard to tissue handling.
* Undergoing fertility or hormone therapy treatments.
* History or evidence of uterine fibroids.
* History of reproductive cancer.
* Has a condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would confound tissue collection or analysis.
* Has an active pelvic infection or other infections contra-indicated for laparoscopy.
