About endometriosis
The exact cause of endometriosis is not fully understood. A combination of genetic and immunological factors is suspected: normal cells transform into endometrial cells and during menstruation the blood flows backwards through the fallopian tubes into the abdominal cavity. These different explanations illustrate the complexity of the disease.
The symptoms of endometriosis are varied and have a considerable impact on quality of life. Typical symptoms include severe menstrual pain and pain during sexual intercourse, bowel movements or urination. The disease can also impair the function of organs and be the cause of an unfulfilled desire to have children.

Achilles tendon rupture - causes, symptoms and modern treatment approaches
An Achilles tendon rupture is one of the most common serious injuries to the lower extremities - especially in people aged between 30 and 50 who are active in sport. At the therapy centre at Zollikerberg Hospital, we support those affected from the acute phase through to a full return to everyday life and sport.
In this article, we explain how a tear can occur, how it can be recognised and what the current treatment and rehabilitation process looks like.
