ENDOMETRIOSIS TREATMENT OPTIMIZATION BY INTRODUCING A SIX-COMPONENT VAGINAL PHYTOCOMPLEX SUPPOSITORY: A CONSERVATIVE APPROACH

Аннотация

Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological condition that significantly impacts women of reproductive age, often leading to pelvic pain, menstrual irregularities, and infertility. Traditional conservative treatments provide symptomatic relief but are often associated with side effects or limited long- term efficacy. This research explores the conservative management of endometriosis through the application of a novel vaginal suppository composed of six herbal components: Ashwagandha, Nigella sativa (black seed), Propolis, Artemisia absinthium (wormwood), Cuminum cyminum (zira), and Melissa officinalis (lemon balm). These components are selected for their well- documented anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, and antioxidant effects. The study aims to assess the efficacy of this phytocomplex in reducing inflammation and alleviating clinical symptoms. Preliminary methodology includes a 14-day course of treatment in ambulatory patients with evaluation through clinical (VAS scale) and laboratory (CRP, ESR, NLR) parameters. This phytotherapeutic approach represents an innovative, integrative, and potentially safer method in the conservative management of endometriosis.
