This editorial review synthesizes current research on the complex interactions between hormonal imbalances, oxidative stress, and the protective roles of nutritional antioxidants in various physiological and pathological conditions. The authors discuss how specific hormones influence redox homeostasis and highlight the potential of plant-based compounds, such as those found in sea buckthorn and pomegranate, to mitigate oxidative damage in reproductive tissues. While the text extensively covers topics like ovarian cancer, thyroid pathology, and male fertility, it explicitly notes that sea buckthorn shows promise for addressing gynecological issues including endometriosis. Relevance to endometriosis: listed as one indication for which sea buckthorn may offer therapeutic benefits, though the paper's main focus is broader hormonal and oxidative mechanisms across multiple systems.
