Ginger and Turmeric in Endometriosis
Endometriosis affects 10% of women of reproductive age. Pelvic pain, unbearable periods, adhesions, and infertility. Chronic inflammation and angiogenesis drive the disease.
Mechanisms of Interest
- Anti-inflammatory — NF-κB and COX-2 inhibition reduce endometriotic pain and inflammation
- Anti-angiogenesis — curcumin inhibits the formation of new blood vessels (which nourish the implants)
- Anti-adhesion — curcumin can reduce the formation of post-operative adhesions
- Estrogenic modulation — curcumin modulates estrogen receptors
- Pain — several studies show it is as effective as ibuprofen for menstrual cramps
Complementary
Does not replace hormonal treatment or surgery. May help reduce pain medication doses. Gynecological advice is essential.
