I discovered that I have endo about 2 years ago, and I have had 2 laparoscopy's since then. It just keeps on coming back worse than the time before. During my period I have really bad stomach aches which last until my period finishes. I find that even though the pain is always there, every time I eat, it makes the pain worse, especially foods high in gluten, sugar and lactose. Along with the stomach aches during my period, over the past few years I also found I was having stomach problems when I wasnt on my period as well. Once I even had such severe pains that I went to the emergency room, where they removed my appendix, which they said was inflamed. Although, after it was removed, I was still experiencing the pains, so I have a general issue with my abdominal becoming inflamed. I cut out my gluten intake drastically, which was difficult for me because I ate alot of bread etc. and I found that helped. I have also cut out processed foods and sugars which helps as well. I would suggest sticking to natural, organic, unprocessed foods. Alot of fruit and veggies and red meat. Even though not much is known about endo, what doctors do know is that the endometriosis is produced by estrogen, so obviously, stearing clear of foods which are high in estrogen levels is a good idea. Keep an eye on meat products which have added estrogen, like some chicken products. Thats why its best to stick to organic foods and meat. |

Don't use tomato sauce! Just finely chop an onion and fry it, add in a bit of garlic and some chilli paste, pour in a can or 2 of tomato puree/paste with a bit of water, a couple of chicken stock cubes and simmer it down until it thickens
