These bits of tissues of endometrial can cause pain and irregular bleeding and could also affect the ability of the women to become pregnant.

  • Immune System Defects: Endometriosis can be resulted as one of the defects of the immune system. It can be a specific defect which could eradicate stray cells migrating outside the uterus.
  • Hereditary: This disease has been termed as hereditary disease.so, the genes of this disease are supposed to be in the women if it was there in her family.
  • Embryonic Tissue Theory: There is a theory that endometriosis can be caused by the microscopic remnants of women’s embryonic tissue which later results as endometriosis.
