During the last stage of the menstrual cycle, normally a layer of endometriosis lining on the inside of the uterus is expelled, known as menstruation blood, instead some of the endometriosis tissues grow somewhere in the body to cause endometriosis. Endometriosis also react to hormone signals of the monthly menstrual cycle, by building and breaking up tissues and eliminating them through menstrual period.
 Vitamin E, best known for its powerful antioxidant property is a fat soluble vitamin and can be stored in our body. We don't require to take it regularly.

1. Immune system(1)(2)
Since vitamin E is an antioxidant, it helps to increase liver function in fighting the forming of free radicals(4), abnormal cells and cancers(3). In endometriosis, it prevents the growth of abnormal endometrial cells to form implants and adhesion in other parts of the body excluding the endometrium.

2.  Cell protection(5)(6)
Since vitamin E protects the fatty acid against degradation in the human body(2) that helps to prevent against the oxidation in cell membranes and cellular regions resulting in protecting against the breaking off of the capillary wall causing heavy blood flow(7) during menstruation.

3. Red blood cells(9)
Deficiency of vitamin E in women with endometriosis were also found to have anemia(10). It is caused by the faster than normal aging of red blood cells because of oxidative destruction of red blood cells(8).

4.  Nervous system(11)
Since we already known that vitamin E is essential for increasing the ability of red blood cells to carry oxygen in the circulation system, it helps to nourish the brain cells fighting against symptoms of endometriosis such as mood swings, anxiety, and depression.

5.  Hormone imbalance
Deficiency of vitamin E also interferes with normal functions of thyroid(12)(13) and pituitary(14) glands causing the decrease of levels of fatty acids resulting in endometrial menstrual cramps(15) which in turn result in the over-production of certain prostaglandins hormones.

Endometriosis: The Effects of Vitamin C(revised edition with references)

By Kyle J. Norton

During the last stage of the menstrual cycle, normally a layer of endometriosis lining on the inside of the uterus is expelled, known as menstruation blood. Instead some of the endometriosis tissues grow somewhere in the body to cause endometriosis. Endometriosis also react to hormone signals of the monthly menstrual cycle, by building and breaking up tissues and eliminating them through menstrual period.
Vitamin C, also known as L-ascorbate is a water soluble vitamin with a chemical structure formula of C6H6O6 and cannot be stored in the body for more than 24 hours. We are required to take it regularly. It is also best known for it's antioxidant property in strengthening the immune system.

1. Immune system(1)
Vitamin C plays an important role in strengthening the immune system because of it's powerful antioxidant property(2). It helps to guard our body against the forming of free radicals(3) and abnormal growth of endometrial cells in other parts of the body.

2. Increase absorption of digestive system
Most women with endometriosis are found to have deficiency of some kinds of vitamins and minerals such as vitamin B complex, folic acid, zinc, and magnesium. Increasing intake of vitamin C not only helps to improve digestive absorption(6)(7), but also increases the body's function in fighting against all kinds of diseases(8) including endometriosis.

3. Endometrial related pain
Besides helping strengthen the liver function to balance the estrogen level(5) during menstrual cycle, vitamin C also balances the level of prostaglandins hormones in the prostaglandins family resulting in the calming of over-active uterine muscles(4).

4. Reduce heavy blood flow and blood clotting(10)
Vitamin C not only helps to protect the breaking off of the capillaries that cause heavy blood flow(11) for women with endometriosis during menstruation but also prevents blood clotting(9) caused by reduction of prothrombin, thrombin, and thrombokinase concentrations in the body.

5. Decrease infection and inflammation
Vitamin C helps in protein metabolism. It not only provides our body with certain necessary proteins but also blocks the synthesis of vital proteins that cause infection(14)(15) and inflammation(8)(12)(13).

During the last stage of the menstrual cycle, normally a layer of endometriosis lining on the inside of the uterus is expelled, known as menstruation blood. Instead some of the endometriosis tissues grow somewhere in the body to cause endometriosis. Endometriosis also react to hormone signals of the monthly menstrual cycle, by building and breaking up tissues and eliminating them through menstrual period.

The Pill normally is prescribed by your doctor to reduce the heavy period blood for woman with or with out endometriosis as well as in treating of period pain, or contraceptive purpose ( 21 days on and 7 days off).

A. The Good(Effectiveness)
1. Reduce the period blood flow(1) as resulting in lowering the risk of more developing of endometriosis(2).
2. Reduce the bleeding(1) by thinning the endometrial lining.
3. Reduce the period pain(3) by inhibiting the hormone prostaglandins hormones that cause the uterine muscles spasm(2).
4. Shrink the endometriosis and reduce the bleeding of into cysts and pelvic cavity(3) because the Pill creates the pregnant-like state.
5. Suppress the estrogen that is needed to start a menstrual cycle(5)(6).

B. The Bad(The Risks)
1. Blood clots
All hormonal methods of birth control pose a threat to normal blood flow. The oral contraceptive combination pill is no exception, it increases the risk of blood clots in your legs or on the lung caused by estrogen in the pill that makes your blood thicker in the veins(7)(8).

2. Stroke(9)(10)
Woman who takes the oral contraceptive combination pill increases the risk of stroke caused by blockage of blood flow to the brain as resulting of high level of estrogen in the pill that reduces the oxygen transportation as the blood getting thicker.

3. Heart disease(11)
Similar to the stroke, as our blood get thicker, our heart has to pump harder to provide oxygen for our body cells need causing hypertension. If our heart has to work that hard for a prolong period of time because of long term use of birth control pill, it will be damaged causing heart disease.

4. Skin pigment(12)(13)
Some woman may experience increasing of pigmentation of skin that shows up in patchy and light brown area caused by estrogen in the pill.

5. Mood swing(14)
Some women may experience mood swing while taking the pill, it is caused by significant changes in your hormone levels affecting the chemicals that regulate mood such as level of estrogen and progesterone in the pill.

6. Infertility(15)(16)
Some women after coming off the birth control pill and hope to get pregnant, they may be disappointed. Not only the effects of birth control pill maybe needed sometime to wire off, our body may never be able to adjust causing lost of period permanently and induced risk ovarian cancer.

7. Increase the risk of fibroids but decreased with duration of oral contraceptive use(17)
Oral contraceptive combination pill contains estrogen that promote the growth of fibroids. If you have fibroids and you want take the oral contraceptive pill, you should talk to your doctor first.

C. The  Side effects
1. Bleeding and spotting(18)
Bleeding and spotting is normal for the first six months for women starting any oral contraceptive combination pill because our body needs time to adjust to the new medication.

2. Lost interest in sex
Women who take the contraceptive pill are in danger of permanently lost their interest in sex because the oral contraceptive pill inhibits testosterone, the hormone that drives sexual desire even after if they stop the pill(19).

3. Chloasma or melisma(12)(13)
It caused by hormonal changes, as in pregnancy and intake of estrogen in the oral contraceptive pill.

4. Nutritional deficiency(20)(21)
Oral contraceptive pill causes vitamin and mineral imbalances or deficiencies. It depletes magnesium for healthy heart, coenzyme Q10 for healthy heart muscles, folic acid for preventing cervical abnormalities, vitamin B6, B2, B3, zinc, etc.

5. Alternation of emotion in facial expression
The pill may alter the detection of emotions in facial expressions, according to the study by 1Institute of Psychology, Clinical Psychology Department, Leiden University(4).
