This paper describes endometriosis as an estrogen-dependent inflammatory, hormone-imbalanced condition affecting reproductive-age females, and it reviews curcumin (a turmeric polyphenol) as having anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-proliferative properties that may be relevant to endometriosis management. The authors’ approach is narrative and largely literature-based, drawing on prior studies and references suggesting curcumin can modulate multiple cellular pathways linked to endometrial inflammation and estradiol-related processes. A key caveat stated in the abstract is that it remains to be determined whether curcumin has effects in the actual management process of endometriosis. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — focusing on the potential use of curcumin for its management.

Abstract

A disorder in which endometrial tissues develop outer side the uterus or uterine cavity is called as endometriosis. It affects mainly females in their reproductive years, and is an oestrogen-dependent condition. Endometriosis a gynaecological disease or disorders, occurs in about 10% of female in reproductive age and in upto 50% of females with in-fertility. It is serious type of Hormonal disease or disorders in female which is caused due to hormonal imbalance these diseases totally change the quality of womens life. Decreased quality of life is the most significant predictor of direct health care and total costs so avoid this next step greater way to take care “Prevention is always better than cure”. Curcumin is a natural polyphenolic compound extracted from the spice, turmeric and has been reported to evidence anti-inflammatory (agent which reduce inflammation), antioxidant (the agent which reduce oxidation), and anti-proliferative properties via the modulation of multiple cellular. However, it remains to be determined whether effect of curcumin affects in the management of process of endometriosis. Turmeric contain especially its most active compound Curcumin have many scientifically proven health benefits, it’s a potent Anti-inflammatory and antioxidant and may also help improve symptoms of endometrosis.
