The source of an autogenous infection is typically the flora already found within yourself. An example is the bacterial flora that is typically housed in a safe manner in the digestive tract. If introduced to the abdominal cavity due to a rupture of lets say the duodenum, you become extremely ill and possibly die because of the flora you already host.
