Reply: anonymous@obgyn.net: "Re: 'Permanents' as in permanent waves in hair - Did you get these? Any possible link to Endo?" Think about all the women (and men) who get perms every day.... now think about the number of women who have endo... I would think that one does not have anything to do with the other. Same goes for a lot of the environmental things that are thought to be causes, the theories just don't hold water or nearly every single female on the planet would have endo. A genetic predisposition to develop endo triggered by some specific set of circumstances is the most likely root of it but truly, I bet if the time and money were available it could be traced back to the beginning of mankind so I think a better focus and target would be in finding a reliable, safe and affordable method of treating it. It's become pretty obvious from what I've read that a complete and total cure may not be possible, nor prevention, but then the same can be said for a lot of diseases/conditions/illnesses. Focusing the research on helping women with endo lead successful lives should be the main goal. And by successful lives I mean being able to wake up in the morning and go about your day without the dopey feeling from narcotic painkillers or chemical concoctions with side-effects just as unbearable as the endo itself is.
