You literally, I want to pass out sometimes when these patients tell me these stories.

I can write a thousand stories like this for you.

The first one is this retrograde flow of the menstrual flow.

Second is an immune system issue, which I told you, for whatever reason, their immune system cannot clear out these implants, which goes to the PCOS.

Remember I told you PCOS patients had so much cytokines released from their visceral?

Huberman Lab
Female Hormone Health, PCOS, Endometriosis, Fertility & Breast Cancer | Dr. Thaïs Aliabadi

It's my hypothesis.

Huberman Lab

that that's why I see so much endometriosis with PCOS, that this chronic inflammation that is caused in PCOS patients is fueling these implants from not being cleared, right?

That's why I see so much.

That's my hypothesis.

Huberman Lab

My problem is I don't have time to do all of this.

Huberman Lab

There's so much I want to do.

Huberman Lab
Female Hormone Health, PCOS, Endometriosis, Fertility & Breast Cancer | Dr. Thaïs Aliabadi

I would have done so much.

Huberman Lab

I love women.

Huberman Lab

I would have done so much for them if I could multiply myself to five more or 10 more.

But anyways, so inflammation is another theory.

Huberman Lab

Then it's the metaplasia of this malarian duct, you know, the malarian duct that forms the uterus and the fallopian tubes.

Huberman Lab

Maybe embryologically these cells are left somewhere in the body.

Huberman Lab

That's why we see implants sometimes by the diaphragm or so you can find it in people's lungs or very rarely in their brain.

Huberman Lab

So you can't say that's retrograde menstruation, right?

The other hypothesis is through blood vessels from the uterus that these cells get picked up in the vessels and implant in distant organs like the lung or the brain.
