Endometriosis

The most common symptom reported by women with endometriosis is pain; pain during sex, menstruation, and which is sometimes chronic and unrelenting. 

Approximately 20-25% of women are asymptomatic for endometriosis, which can make receiving a diagnosis difficult for some patients.

The Integrative Medicine Approach to Endometriosis

Endometriosis is a complex condition requiring a whole-body approach to decreasing pain, inflammation, and healing hormone imbalance. Diet and lifestyle interventions, as well as conventional medicine play a role in alleviating endometriosis symptoms.

What causes endometriosis?

While modern science hasn’t yet determined what causes endometriosis, there’s a link between toxic burden which affects inflammatory cytokine production, estrogen dominance, and even autoimmunity. 

A leaky gut is also correlated with endometriosis, and researches have identified tissue-specific antibodies, which indicate that the immune system plays a role in endometriosis, as it does with autoimmune conditions and leaky gut.

Integrative Medicine Treatment for Endometriosis

  • Anti-inflammatory diet and supplement recommendation
  • Nutrition counseling
  • Functional hormone testing
  • Detoxification testing
  • Autoimmune evaluation

Because the growth of endometrial tissue around the fallopian tubes, ovaries, or intestines can lead to a buildup of scar tissue and inflammation, surgery is sometimes recommended to remove scar tissue causing pain in the abdomen.
