Endometriosis and linked ovarian cancer show opposite biological aging

Biological age was 16.92% higher than chronological age in endometriosis patients but 14.64% lower in patients with related ovarian cancer.Biological age was 16.92% higher than chronological age in endometriosis patients but 14.64% lower in patients with related ovarian cancer.
