I did try western herbs for endometriosis for 6 months when i was first diagnosed and unfortunately felt no difference- in fact they were worse around that time but think that it was more to do with the stress i was under at that time.

I like acupuncure (tcm, 5 element and channel palpation) and love the benefits it offers- pain relief, relaxing etc. I did also try chinese herbs for over 2 years when i was going through ivf and again didn't feel any benefits.

I actually feel that my endometriosis was triggered by the crazy hormones in the ivf drugs and was then activated when i had a really awful sressful situation to deal with. My first lap at the beginning of ivf was all clear. I think that scientists are looking at possible link between endometriosis and ivf drugs.

Be interested to know which herbs they focused on?
