This chapter discusses the role of nutritional interventions and complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) in endometriosis, framing diet and lifestyle as potentially modifiable risk factors that could influence pathways like inflammation, estrogen production, and prostaglandin secretion. It reviews a broad set of CAM practices (e.g., acupuncture, phytotherapy, yoga) and explains mechanistic links proposed between nutrition and endometriosis-related physiological processes. The main caveat is that therapeutic benefits of currently available approaches are described as limited, and the discussion is largely conceptual and synthesized rather than presenting a single controlled intervention with definitive outcomes. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it focuses on nutritional interventions and CAM as potential influences on disease biology and symptom burden.
