Endometriosis Support Group
Endometriosis is a common medical condition where the tissue lining the uterus is found outside of the uterus, typically affecting other organs in the pelvis. The condition can lead to serious health problems, primarily pain and infertility. A major symptom of endometriosis is pain, mostly in the lower abdomen, lower back, and pelvic area.

[TYE] Have you tried these alternative endo treatments?
Hi Jamie
Endometriosis alternative medicine is becoming more popular and in
many cases is fast becoming the preferred treatment option for a
growing number of women around the world.
There are many reasons why women are turning to endometriosis
alternative remedies...
----------------------------
Two main benefits...
----------------------------
...alternative treatments are more focused on the needs of the
patient, and because alternative treatments are considered less
harmful or invasive, as they act in conjunction with the body's
natural functions.
Here are five of the most popular endometriosis alternative medical
approaches and their respective descriptions and advantages.
-----------------------
Acupuncture
-----------------------
This endometriosis alternative treatment is part of Traditional
Chinese Medicine (TCM), and can be a wonderful option for many
women. Acupuncture has been widely practiced as an effective
medical treatment in mainland China for thousands of years. Since
it was introduced in the United States in the 1970s, it has grown
to be popular globally.
When visiting an acupuncturist, expect the treatment to be tailored
to you individually.
Your practitioner will want to hear details about your medical
history, including your experiences with endometriosis the history
of your menstrual cycle.
The points stimulated by your acupuncturist will vary from person
to person depending on your circumstances.
However, some of the common endometriosis acupuncture points are
the abdomen, back, ears, wrists, feet and legs.
It may take a a number of sessions to experience relief from your
symptoms. Ask your practitioner to give you an idea of how long the
treatment program will last so you can schedule in the right number
of treatments.
--------------------------
Herbal Treatments
--------------------------
Another part of Traditional Chinese Medicine treatment for
endometriosis is the use of herbs. There are certain herbs that are
proven to help the body overcome different ailments.
The main aim in using herbs for endometriosis is to balance any
hormonal imbalances and strenghten the immune system to help the
body fight the endometriosis and elimintate it.
Because herbs are organic sources of vitamins, minerals and
essential oils, side effects are few, so long as you deal with
quality products that are manufactured to certain quality standards
and do not exceed the recommended dose.
However, some herbs can cause interactions with medications, so
it's always best to check with your doctor first.
-----------------
Homeopathy
-----------------
Herbs are not the only source of natural substances, minerals and
nutrients can help the body combat diseases. When such substances
are used to treat endometriosis, the alternative medicine type is
referred to as homeopathy.
Homeopathy looks at the body as a whole and not just the ailment,
so be prepared to give a detailed medical history to your homeopath
so they can tailor a regime suitable for you.
-----------------
Naturopathy
-----------------
Naturopathy is another alternative treatment suitable for
endometriosis. But this treatment is different from the rest
because it involves changing the overall lifestyle of the
individual.
Not only does naturopathy target endometriosis, it also aims to
improve women's lifestyles to bring about an equilibrium or a
balanced state physically, mentally and emotionally.
------------------
Aromatherapy
------------------
One of the most popular alternative treatments is aromatherapy.
This is because as opposed from the above-mentioned options,
aromatherapy does not require an intake of herbs, changing your
lifestyle or inserting needles.
Aromatherapy allows women to take in the necessary elements and
nutrients to fight endometriosis through the absorption of
essential oils through the skin and by breathing it in.
As you can see there are a number of endometriosis alternative
medicine options to choose from. Through experiementation you
should be able to find the right one or ones for you.

options check out 'Treating Your Endometriosis' at the following
