    Vitamin B complex When you’re under stress, you burn through your B vitamins. They give you more energy, help you deal with stress, and are necessary for producing energy in the body. Correction of B-vitamin deficiencies, then, can help reduce stress. B-complex supplements may be beneficial, although too high a dose can cause problems as well. As with many things, moderation is good.

    Calcium/magnesium Magnesium, in particular, has properties that help endo patients reduce tension.

    Fish oil Fish oil is high in omega-3 fatty acids, which increase anti-inflammatory prostaglandins, and has achieved good results with endometriosis.

    symptoms or pain are caused by food sensitivities. The two biggest culprits here are wheat and dairy, both of which can promote inflammation. Generally she has a patient start by eliminating foods in both categories for two weeks.

    This condition is associated with depression, memory and cognitive impairment, raised serum levels of total and LDL cholesterol, and an increased risk for the development of atherosclerosis.65 Unfortunately, the fatigue experienced by so many patients is not often corrected with thyroid replacement.

    Likewise, if you have liver disease, Crohn’s disease, or cystic fibrosis, you may have problems synthesizing enough of the vitamin. If, when outside, you cover your skin and use sunscreen, you may be at greater risk of deficiency

    vitamin D isn’t really even a vitamin but an important hormone that plays many key roles, including helping to protect against cancer and autoimmune diseases, helping with insulin function, and increasing bone and muscle strength.

    another is vitamin D—can help break down the estrogen into “good” estrogen. These can be found in cruciferous vegetables. So eat your broccoli! (See “Nutrition” for the exception.)

    metabolized into 2-OH Estradiol or 2-OH Estrone (good estrogen) seems to be safely eliminated from the body. It’s the estrogen metabolized into 16a-OH Estrone that seems to be the problem: with endometriosis, as with cancer and other diseases related to estrogen, there is too much of this “bad” estrogen. A few studies have shown that toxins such as dioxin stimulate metabolism of the bad estrogen. Premarin, the commercial name for estrogen from horse urine, which is sometimes prescribed for symptoms of menopause, seems to be preferentially metabolized as bad estrogen. It has been found to increase the risk of breast cancer.

    ften, endometriosis is clustered with problems such as interstitial cystitis, insulin resistance, hypothyroidism, allergies and autoimmune diseases, food and environmental sensitivities, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, eczema, vaginal yeast infections, and Lyme disease, to name a few.61 A 1998 survey of 3,680 members of the Endometriosis Association found that women with endometriosis had higher rates of hypothyroidism, rheumatoid arthritis, allergies, and asthma, among other medical problems.62
    Because these other conditions so often co-exist with endometriosis, in addition to whatever medical treatment or surgery I do, I make sure that the patient’s underlying metabolic system is in balance; that her digestive, immune, and hormonal systems are functioning optimally; that she’s exercising and eating well. The better the patient’s overall health, the easier it is to address all the underlying issues.
