Summary

This study is testing whether a low-FODMAP diet can reduce pain and improve quality of life in women with endometriosis who also have gut symptoms like bloating and nausea. Researchers will compare the diet to standard care in 150 women aged 18-45. The goal is to see if changing what you eat can help manage symptoms without extra medication.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
low-FODMAP diet
What this could lead to
If it works, this diet could offer a simple, drug-free way to ease pain and gut discomfort for women with endometriosis.
What could go wrong
This is a relatively small, early-stage trial (150 participants) testing a dietary change, which can be hard to stick with. Results may not apply to all women with endometriosis.
