Antioxidant therapies, accessible and cost-effective, present a viable strategy for enhancing health equity in endometriosis management while potentially decreasing dependence on expensive treatments. By addressing oxidative stress, a central factor in disease advancement compounds like vitamins C, E, and D, N-acetylcysteine, curcumin, resveratrol, and melatonin offer non-hormonal avenues for symptom relief. Evidence indicates pain reduction, notably with melatonin, yet studies are small, varied, and inconclusive regarding lesion reduction. Policy recommendations emphasize funding robust multicenter trials, cautiously integrating antioxidants into clinical guidelines, educating clinicians, and empowering patients through awareness campaigns. Their low cost and safety profile make antioxidants a compelling adjunct, aligning with patient needs and promoting access in resource-limited settings. Targeted investment in biomarker research could further refine personalized treatment, improving outcomes for millions living with this chronic condition.
