The causes of regeneration, especially amongst Time Lords, were many and varied. They ran the gamut from simple desire to change, to life-threatening maladies which typically resulted in human death. The following are the known causes of regeneration of specific Time Lords.

The Doctor

Romana


The Master

Rassilon

K'anpo Rimpoche

Borusa


Chronotis

  • Salyavin used up his thirteenth and final incarnation when he was attached by the Sphere. However, when his Type 12 TARDIS was sent backwards, it altered his personal timeline and brought him back to life. (HOMEVID: Shada/WC: Shada)


Rallon

Azmael

  • Azmael used all his twelve regenerations in unknown circumstances. In his thirteenth and final body he regenerated past his limit, killing him and Mestor, who possessed Azmael's body after his own was destroyed. (TV: The Twin Dilemma)

Iris Wildthyme

The War Chief

  • Underwent a faulty regeneration after being shot by War Lords; lack of medical care and the scale of the damage sustained resulted in his new form appearing like two bodies fused together. (PROSE: Timewyrm: Exodus)

Because of this, he can no longer regenerate.

The Monk

Ruath

  • Drained every drop of her blood from her body to restore Vampire Lord Yarven. Yarven subsequently turned her into a vampire. (PROSE: Goth Opera)

Innocet

I.M. Foreman

  • As a priest, he had been given the gift of regenerations. This made twelve different individuals, who were created by his body absorbing the DNA around him; all regenerations were caused by the Third Doctor sending the first twelve back to Gallifrey's past so that they fell from a great height and regenerated into the next one. (PROSE: Interference - Book One, Interference - Book Two)

The Corsair

  • The Corsair regenerated several times, with "a couple" of his incarnations being female. He was back to male by the time he was killed by House. (TV: The Doctor's Wife)

River Song

  • First to second incarnation: As a little girl, Melody Pond, later known as River Song, regenerated on the streets of New York City in 1970 due to being shot my Amy Pond. (TV: [[,The Impossible Astronaut}} {{Day of the Moon]])
  • Second to third incarnation: Melody later regenerated in Hitler's private study in 1938 after the Führer accidentally shot her while fearing the Teselecta. She later used up all of her remaining regenerations to heal the Doctor from a poison that she had infected him with. (TV: Let's Kill Hitler)
