Description: Patients with endometriosis demonstrated a significantly higher abundance of the following taxa compared to control patients. There were 36 taxa unique to endometriosis patients that were completely absent in control patients. Some taxa were excluded because they had an unidentified genus/ species
Abundance in Group 1: increased abundance in Stage 3/4 endometriosis patients

Description: The following taxa were decreased in endometriosis patients and increased in the control group. There were 11 genera unique to the control group. Some taxa were excluded because they had an unidentified genus/ species
Abundance in Group 1: decreased abundance in Stage 3/4 endometriosis patients
