Causes of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder

What are the Causes of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder?

The exact cause of Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) has not been confirmed.

There is growing evidence that Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) has a neurobiological basis. It is no longer attributed to family problems or to attitudes learned in childhood. Patients with Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) have a set pattern of brain activity that differs from people with no mental illness. Some researchers have suggested a link between Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) and head injury and infections.
