ABSTRACT
This chapter argues that endometriosis is performed simultaneously as multiple and singular, and identifies that the various practices of rationalisation. In this way, medical hypotheses perform endometriosis as a unique and distinct object as singular, in Mol's terms. In rationalising problems with disease theory, medicine is conceding the limitations of current knowledge and practice. In recent years, scholars adopting a broadly Foucauldian approach have moved away from this understanding of power, eschewing assumptions about how power vests and circulates. The need for deliberation is achieved by positing the project as a set of options. According to Michael Callon, the positing of options and the process of making decisions about those options always already functions to produce a knowing subject. Hermann argues that spasmodic dysmenorrhoea: Occurs in sensitive women. Endometriosis as enigmatic function for women and the feminine, serves to reinforce the notion of women and femininity as inherently perplexing.
