Many mechanisms have been proposed to explain the cause of endometriosis. However, there is no single mechanism that can explain all cases, but only some points of the disease. It is likely that the cause of endometriosis is due to many factors such as:
Reflux and implantation theory of the endometrium states that when menstruating, most of the discharge is vaginal, but there is also a A small portion flows backward into the fallopian tubes and into pelvic structures. Endometriosis at sites outside the pelvis is explained by dissemination of endometrial cells or tissues through lymph and blood vessels. Direct implantation theory is a possible explanation for endometriosis that develops during episiotomy, hysterectomy, and other surgical scars. The cellular immunological theory is the most recently proposed hypothesis, which holds that a deficiency of cellular immunity allows the endometrium to develop. Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease that can cause female infertility and cause discomfort and pain during the menstrual cycle. Therefore, the disease needs to be diagnosed and treated promptly.
