This paper presents the NUTRI-ENDO clinical protocol, a standardized framework for pre-treatment nutraceutical optimization in patients with endometriosis. Developed through a systematic review of evidence from 2010 to 2026, the protocol utilizes a multidisciplinary panel to synthesize data on inflammation, angiogenesis, and estrogen metabolism into a tiered implementation strategy. The resulting matrix includes twelve core components, such as Vitamin D3, omega-3 fatty acids, and N-acetylcysteine, with specific dosing ranges and monitoring parameters defined for baseline, priming, and peri-operative phases. While the authors note that prospective validation studies are warranted, they propose this evidence-based approach may improve inflammatory markers and treatment responsiveness. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically focusing on a standardized nutritional intervention protocol for pre-treatment management.

Abstract

Endometriosis affects approximately 10% of reproductive-age women and is frequently associated with chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, estrogen dominance, and micronutrient deficiencies. Despite advances in surgical and hormonal therapy, pre-treatment optimization of the metabolic and immunological milieu remains understandardized. Nutraceutical intervention represents a low-risk, evidence-informed adjunct capable of modulating key pathophysiological pathways prior to definitive therapy. Objective: To present a standardized, reproducible clinical protocol — NUTRI-ENDO — for pretreatment nutraceutical optimization in endometriosis patients utilizing a structured vitamin-mineral matrix. Methods: The protocol was developed through systematic review of randomized controlled trials, metaanalyses, and mechanistic studies (2010–2026) concerning nutraceutical modulation of endometriosisassociated inflammation, angiogenesis, apoptosis dysregulation, and estrogen metabolism. A multidisciplinary panel synthesized evidence into a tiered implementation framework with defined dosing, timing, monitoring parameters, and safety algorithms. Results: The NUTRI-ENDO matrix comprises twelve core nutraceutical categories: Vitamin D3, Vitamin E, Vitamin C, methylfolate, methylcobalamin, magnesium, zinc, selenium, omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (EPA/DHA), N-acetylcysteine (NAC), curcumin, and coenzyme Q10. Each component is stratified by pre-treatment phase (Baseline, Priming, Peri-operative/Pre-ART), with explicit dosing ranges, biochemical targets, and contraindication screening. The NUTRI-ENDO protocol offers a practical, evidence-based framework for clinicians to standardize pre-treatment nutraceutical optimization, potentially improving inflammatory markers, pain scores, and treatment responsiveness in endometriosis patients. Prospective validation studies are warranted.
