“…Endometriosis related EVs were isolated from peritoneal fluid [ 18 , 23 , 27 , 28 , 30 , 33 , 46 ], endometrium [ 18 – 20 , 25 , 28 , 29 , 34 , 35 , 37 , 38 , 41 , 42 , 44 , 47 ], endometriosis lesions [ 18 , 19 , 26 , 28 ], endometriomas [ 25 , 30 , 34 , 35 , 39 – 42 , 44 , 47 ], cervicovaginal swabs (in a single monkey) [ 32 ], plasma [ 18 , 31 ] and serum [ 18 , 26 , 28 , 31 , 34 – 36 , 39 , 43 , 45 , 47 ].
