Holistic approaches like nutrition, exercise, stress reduction, and sleep can be used as adjunctive therapy for adolescent endometriosis to improve pain perception and daily functioning with few adverse effects.

This chapter reviews holistic, non-pharmacologic modalities for managing adolescent endometriosis, including nutrition, exercise, stress reduction, sleep, and other pain-management approaches. It emphasizes that the evidence base is limited, noting that there is little supportive evidence in adults and even less data specifically in adolescents, while still describing these approaches as potential adjunctive therapies with few adverse effects reported. The stated goal for adjunctive therapy is to improve patients’ perception of pain and daily functioning, but the chapter calls for additional research to clarify effectiveness. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it focuses specifically on a holistic approach for managing adolescent endometriosis.
