Endometriosis

Diet and movement coaching eased endometriosis pain

A randomized controlled trial in the European Journal of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Biology tested structured Mediterranean style diet and aerobic activity coaching in women with symptomatic endometriosis, and found less pain and better well being than usual care. This is one trial, the effect is real but modest, and it is a lifestyle add on rather than a treatment for the disease. It belongs alongside your gynaecologist's plan or your surgery decision, never instead of it. Nothing here is a reason to delay a referral to an endometriosis clinic.

Pelvic floor therapy eases endometriosis pain

A 2026 systematic review pooling seven small trials found pelvic floor physiotherapy eased endometriosis associated pelvic pain by roughly 2 points on a 10 point scale versus no physiotherapy. The pooled trials are small and mixed, so treat this as a promising adjunct, not a settled result. Physiotherapy does not treat the disease itself; it runs alongside your medical care, never instead of it.
