Afynia

Afynia (formerly AIMA Laboratories) is a medical diagnostic company commercializing the first diagnostic blood test for endometriosis. It is estimated that 400 million women are diagnosed each year with chronic pelvic pain of which 50-65% will ultimately be diagnosed with endometriosis. Sadly, it takes between 5 and 12 years from onset of symptoms for a diagnosis. Afynia’s test detects endometriosis with the same accuracy as surgery and provides women and their doctors with actionable data to take back control of their lives.
