5 Ways Your Diet Could Help Ease Symptoms of Endometriosis

Melatonin is often thought as a means to get people to sleep, and while it's true that melatonin is a hormone that plays a role in sleep regulation, it has also been shown to reduce pain scores, medication use, and improve sleep quality in women with endometriosis-related chronic pelvic pain. Melatonin is naturally found in foods like tart cherries, walnuts, and pears. If melatonin-rich foods are not your jam, talk to your doctor about potentially starting a supplement.
