As we mentioned in previous articles during the last stage of the menstrual cycle normally a layer of endometriosis lining in the inside of the uterus is expelled, known as menstruation blood but instead some of the endometriosis tissues grow somewhere in the body causing endometriosis. Endometriosis also reacts to hormonal signals of the monthly menstrual cycle, building up tissue, breaking it, and eliminating it through menstrual period. In this article, we will discuss what exhibits lymphatic transplantation to cause endometriosis?

I. Definition
Lymphatic transplantation theory suggests that endometrial cells migrate either through the lymphatic channel or circulation of blood, and implants outside the uterine cavity.

II. Lymphatic transplantation and endometriosis

1. Weakened immune system
Everyone knows that our immune system plays an important role to balance our body's normal functions. It will destroy any bacteria, virus and any cellular abnormalities as well as implantation of wrong cells in the wrong part of our body. A weakened immune system allows abnormal cells to grow and circulate through our circulation and lymph systems resulting in endometrial tissues being deposited in the abdominal region and other organs.

2. Side effects of birth control pills
Most birth control pills are used to depress the production of estrogen, thereby reducing the side effects of menstruation disorder causing hormonal imbalance and nutritional deficiency as well as dilation of vein increasing the movement of endometrial tissue into the veins.

3. Inflammation
Inflammation is a protective attempt by our body to remove the injurious stimuli as well as initiate the healing process for the tissue and damaged cells. In case of endometriosis, for whatever reasons, some endometrial cells in the wrong part in our body survives and circulates through the lymph and blood causing endometrial implant and adhesion.
