Angela's comments:

There have been several promising studies investigating the potential of bee propolis and royal jelly for treating endometriosis, both in terms of managing symptoms and improving fertility.
Here are some notable examples:

1. Bee propolis vs. placebo in the treatment of infertility associated with endometriosis:

Study: A pilot randomized controlled trial published in the journal "Fertility and Sterility".

Results: This study found that bee propolis was effective in treating infertility associated with mild or minimal endometriosis. 60% of women with endometriosis-related infertility who took bee propolis for 9 months became pregnant, compared to 20% in the placebo group.

Conclusion: The study suggests that bee propolis is a promising treatment option for women with endometriosis-related infertility.

2. Sulawesi propolis induces higher apoptotic activity and lower inflammatory activity in a rat endometriosis model:

Study: In vitro and in vivo study published in the journal "Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy".

Results: This study showed that Sulawesi propolis, a specific type of bee propolis, significantly reduced the size and proliferation of endometriosis lesions in rats. It also reduced inflammation and pain associated with the condition.

Conclusion: The study suggests that Sulawesi propolis may be a potential therapeutic agent for the treatment of endometriosis.

3. IN-SILICO dynamic analysis of Sulawesi propolis as an anti-endometriosis drug:

Study: In silico study published in the journal "Biointerface Research in Applied Chemistry".

Results: This study used computer modeling to investigate the potential of Sulawesi propolis as a treatment for endometriosis. The study found that Sulawesi propolis binds strongly to several receptors involved in the development and progression of endometriosis.

Conclusion: The study supports the potential of Sulawesi propolis as a therapeutic agent for endometriosis and suggests further research is needed.

4. Possible therapeutic effect of royal jelly on endometriotic lesion size, pain sensitivity, and neurotrophic factors in a rat model of endometriosis:

Study: In vivo study published in the journal "Life Sciences".

Results: This study investigated the effects of royal jelly, another bee product, on endometriosis in rats. The study found that royal jelly significantly reduced the size of endometriosis lesions and pain sensitivity in the animals.

Conclusion: The study suggests that royal jelly may be a potential therapeutic option for the treatment of endometriosis pain.
