Different options: Endometriosis requires a combination of medical and surgical therapy. Surgery is usually reserved for certain situations. Multiple medicines can be effective (birth control pills, Norethindrone acetate, progestions, lupron, (leuprolide) aromatase inhibitors). Treatment must be individualized.

Diet: Although diet modification is not a proven treatment. Recent studies have found that the pelvic tissue in women with endometriosis has less antioxidant activity. An antioxidant rich diet could add to the treatment of endometriosis besides its proven benefits to your health in general.
