Amazing Home Remedies to Treat Endometriosis Naturally (Video)

by N.Morgan

Endometriosis (en-doe-me-tree-O-sis) is an often painful disorder in which tissue similar to the tissue that normally lines the inside of your uterus — the endometrium — grows outside your uterus. Endometriosis most commonly involves your ovaries, fallopian tubes and the tissue lining your pelvis.

Endometriosis is one of the most common causes of pelvic pain for women. It is a disorder that affects the reproductive organs of a woman; the tissues that line the uterine walls grow in the nearby organs. 

The disorder symptoms are:

– Constipation

– Painful intercourse

– Bloating

– Heavy and painful menstrual periods

– Pain with bowel movements

– Diarrhea

Even though you should seek the help of a doctor as soon as possible, it is possible to manage endometriosis at home.

Common home remedies include:

1. Heat

One of the simplest ways to manage the symptoms of endometriosis is to apply some heat. It relaxes your pelvic muscles and reduces pain and cramping. Consider using a heating pad, warm bath, or hot water bath to minimize pain.

2. Ginger Tea

Many women with endometriosis experience nausea. One of the most effective ways to relieve it is using ginger tea. It is safe and works for most women. You can get ginger tea packets in many grocery stores. Consider drinking it at least two times every day.

3. Anti-Inflammatory Foods

Even though making changes to your diet does not necessarily heal the symptoms of endometriosis, it could make it easier to manage them. Avoid inflammatory foods and increase your intake of anti-inflammatory options. Increase your intake of:

– Broccoli

– Chia seeds

– Salmon

– Green leafy vegetables

– Bone broth

– Blueberries

Avoid the following foods:

– Dairy products

– Alcohol

– Caffeine

– Processed

4. Castor Oil

For hundreds of years, people have been using castor oil to treat endometriosis. Use it when you start feeling the signs of cramping. It helps the body get rid of excess tissues, especially before your menstrual flow. Massage it into your abdomen. You can mix it with a few drops of lavender for relaxation.

5. Turmeric

Turmeric has strong anti-inflammatory properties. It alleviates the symptoms of endometriosis and may help you manage the disorder in the long-term. According to some researchers, it can reduce endometrial growth. Consider drinking turmeric tea at least three times every day to manage the symptoms.

6. Pelvic Massage

Regular pelvic massage relaxes your muscles and reduces inflammation. Regular 10-15 minute massages can help you manage the symptoms of endometriosis. Use a few drops of essential oils to massage your pelvic muscles before your menstrual cycle. A massage during your period could make the symptoms worse.

7. Rest

If you have endometriosis, try to get extra rest especially during your period. Lie on your side and pull your knees into your chest to reduce pressure and pain.

Even though there are plenty of ways to manage endometriosis at home, you should seek the help of a doctor as soon as possible if you suspect that you may have it.
