Mohammad Khaja Moinudeen

Abstract: Endometriosis affects approximately 10% of reproductive - age women, characterized by chronic pain, inflammation, and in some cases, infertility. This study investigates the role of diet and lifestyle modifications in managing endometriosis symptoms. A comprehensive literature review was conducted, examining dietary patterns, exercise, and lifestyle changes reported to alleviate pain and inflammation associated with endometriosis. The findings suggest that certain dietary modifications, such as increased intake of omega - 3 fatty acids, fiber, and antioxidants, alongside regular physical activity, are associated with symptom relief. While lifestyle changes may offer additional support, further research is needed to establish standardized guidelines. This paper underscores the potential benefits of diet and lifestyle modifications as adjunctive therapies for endometriosis management.
