Demographic and Clinical Profiles of Patients with Endometriosis

Background: Endometriosis affects 176 million women, with an average diagnostic delay of up to twelve years. We sought to evaluate differences between patients diagnosed with and without endometriosis, using electronic health record (EHR) data. Our goal was to use feature selection to determine the elements most predictive of endometriosis.
