2 Menstruation as the pelvic aggressor
Bailliere's clinical obstetrics and gynaecology ·doi:10.1016/s0950-3552(05)80458-4

Cumulative evidence supports the concept of retrograde menstruation being a pelvic aggressor as it contributes to both the development of endometriosis and related symptoms such as dysmenorrhoea and infertility. A major problem in studying …

Endometrial epithelial cells in peritoneal fluid during the early follicular phase
Fertility and sterility ·doi:10.1016/s0015-0282(16)54119-3

Peritoneal fluid (PF) was obtained during the early follicular phase in 24 women at laparoscopy as part of infertility investigation. The cells present in PF were pelleted and cultured. Developing endometrial epithelial cell colonies were i…
