Endometriosis has a strong association with chronic pelvic pain. Which can disturb sleep, cause reluctance to do day-to-day activities, and make life feel unbearable on a day-to-day basis. The pathophysiology of chronic pelvic pain is still unknow, but there is evidence to suggest that estrogen increases brain-derived neurotrophic factor during the estrous cycle. Many people have turned to different pain management medication, but if the pain is extreme this can mean the regular use of pain management such as opioids or regular consumption of Tylenol which for prolonged periods of time causes other damages within the body. Melatonin may provide an alternative to pain medications.
