Lifestyle factors and symptom burden in endometriosis: an exploratory mixed-methods analysis of nutrition, physical activity, and psychosocial well-being

The authors aimed to explore the associations between lifestyle factors—specifically nutrition, physical activity, and psychosocial well-being—and symptom burden in women with endometriosis. Their mixed-methods study found weak and context-dependent correlations, particularly highlighting psychosocial well-being as having the most consistent relationship with symptom management. The findings suggest that individualized lifestyle support may be beneficial alongside conventional medical treatments, warranting further investigation through longitudinal and intervention studies.
