1 Jun 2001

Family studies have long suggested a role for genetic factors in the aetiology of endometriosis. The influence of genes on disease development has mainly been researched independently of environmental factors, yet their interaction must play an important role. Greater exposure to retrograde menstruation and oestrogen is likely to increase the risk of endometriosis; toxic compounds such as dioxin may increase the...
