Abstract

Endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent condition that can lead to significant morbidity, including chronic pelvic pain, multiple surgeries, and infertility. Recent discoveries regarding its genetics, the potential influence of environmental factors and the immune system, along with intrinsic abnormalities in the endometrium of affected women and the secretions from endometriotic lesions, have provided new insights into the disease's pathogenesis. These findings form the basis for developing new treatments aimed at managing disease-related pain and infertility. It was possible to observe a case of remission of symptoms and complete disappearance of lesions on ultrasound images after anthroposophic treatment. Certainly, more cases need to be followed up in the long term to verify whether there has been a real cure for the disease. Case: Brazilian woman in the reproductive period with endometriosis presented remission of symptoms with disappearance of the lesions after anthroposophic treatment
