Biomarkers in Gynecology and Obstetrics

Biomarkers relevant to women’s health have not been investigated as widely as in some other therapeutic areas. Those relevant to cancer of breast and ovaries are discussed in the chapter on cancer biomarkers. This section will deal with biomarkers of menopause, endometriosis and disorders associated with pregnancy.
