“At this point in time, we do not know the cause of endometriosis.
Until now several theories of the origin and disease manifestation of endometriosis have been proposed:
* Sampson’s theory of retrograde menstruation
* Immune dysfunction theory
* Theory of Mülleriosis
* Embryonic rest theory
* Stem cell theory
* Theories of lymphatic and vascular spread
* Coelomic metaplasia theory
* Genetic factors
* Environmental toxins
Most likely a complex interplay between several of the above-described theories ultimately holds the key to fully unraveling the cause and in turn the cure of this enigmatic disease.”
