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.

Gynaecological care for impaired women: A new service at Zollikerberg Hospital
Impaired women often have no access to specialised gynaecological care. This leads to unwanted pregnancies, pain and suffering. Dr Karin Lindauer, gynaecologist at Zollikerberg Hospital, has therefore set up a special consultation for women with cognitive and physical impairments. This service is the first of its kind in Switzerland.
