I
ntegrative medicine is a combination of conventional medicine and alternative medicine for patient treatment. Its use has
increased worldwide in recent years. Endometriosis is one of the most common disorders among infertile patients seeking
medical advice. Etiology of the association is still unclear, but a number of studies suggest endometriosis alteration of hormonal
cells and mediated functions, reduction of oocyte and embryo quality, endocrine and ovulatory abnormality, alteration of
peritoneal functions, pelvic distortion and dyspareunia that decreases sexual activities. Nowadays, the medical treatment of
conventional medicine does not improve the rate of pregnancy in patients with endometriosis-associated infertility. Chaophya
Abhaibhubejhr Hospital has experiences in usingThai integrative medicine in endometriosis-associated infertility patients. Our
experiences include the use of the following: Curcumin capsules for post laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy, Plasaplai formula
for endometriosis-associated pain, massage therapies for uterine repositioning and herbal diets for lifestyle modification.
