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.

To gain more insight into the topic of PCOS and the desire to have children, we spoke to Dr Roland Braneti, Head of our Fertility Centre and Gynaecological Endocrinology at the Women's Clinic at Zollikerberg Hospital.
