This paper explores the pathophysiology of endometriosis and examines the complementary treatment potential of medicinal plants like garlic, curcumin, and ginger for alleviating inflammatory symptoms and pain.

The paper discusses endometriosis as a chronic inflammatory disease affecting about 176 million women worldwide, emphasizing that pain reduces quality of life and is difficult to treat due to complex pathophysiology. It explains how endometrial-like tissue grows outside the uterus, potentially involving ovaries, fallopian tubes, intestine, and even distant organs such as the lungs. The main finding is a proposed relationship between endometriosis symptoms and specific plants—garlic, curcumin, and ginger—highlighting their anti-inflammatory actions as a basis for symptom relief. The paper’s stated limitation is that it aims to clarify physiopathology and increase the hypothesis for complementary treatment via phytotherapy rather than provide definitive clinical evidence. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it focuses on medicinal plants used to treat endometriosis-related symptoms through phytotherapy.
