A recent review looked at studies of nutritional supplements in the context of endometriosis and chronic pelvic pain.
13 supplements showed promise:
🔹 Vitamin D
🔹 Zinc
🔹 Omega-3s
🔹 Curcumin
🔹 Quercetin
🔹 N-acetylcysteine (NAC)
🔹 Probiotics or Prebiotics
🔹 Resveratrol
🔹 Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA)
🔹 Vitamin C
🔹 Vitamin E
🔹 Selenium
🔹 EGCG (from green tea)
Does this mean that every woman with pelvic pain should go purchase all of these supplements?
No
Pelvic pain is complicated and needs to be evaluated by a qualified healthcare practitioner. We do additional testing to understand the root cause. Then we tailor a targeted plan that often includes supplements—but not a laundry list like this.
