Core Tip Endometriosis is a multifactorial disease, which, despite intensive research in the last decades, is still not fully explained. In addition, many questions remain to be answered as to the exact events leading from cysts to endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer. Surprisingly, having endometriosis might be less risky than undergoing in vitro fertilization, which can increase the risk of ovarian cancer. Our review summarizes current hypothesis on probable mechanisms and attributing factors such as longstanding estrogen stimulation, repeated heavy menstruation and early events on the molecular level. Thus far, however, no single one can be used for diagnosis or treatment.
