A member asked:
Is there anything i can do at home for myself to help with endometriosis if there is anything? change of diet? possibly less soda?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not really: Dietary changes or herbal supplements have not been shown to improve endometriosis. Menstrual cycle suppression with birth control pills, continuous Nuvaring, Mirena (levonorgestrel) IUD are helpful. Ibuprofen can be helpful. Surgical management is indicated in some cases.
