Clinical Trial Summary

Quercetin is a polyphenol compound that possesses anti-inflammatory properties and can be found in various food sources like apples, berries, cabbage, and onions. In Park et al.'s study, it was discovered that quercetin led to a significant decrease in the proliferation of endometriosis cells. Furthermore, quercetin also triggered apoptosis in endometriosis cells in vitro and reduced the size of endometriosis lesions in vivo. Nevertheless, as of now, there have been no studies conducted in Iran or worldwide that explore the effects of quercetin supplementation on individuals with endometriosis. Hence, the aim of this study is to investigate the impact of quercetin supplementation on factors such as glycemic status, lipid profile, oxidative stress, inflammation, growth factors, adiponectin, sex hormones, and anthropometric indicators in women suffering from endometriosis.


Clinical Trial Description

The participants in the study were randomly assigned to two groups: the intervention group and the control group. The intervention group will receive two 500 mg quercetin tablets daily, after breakfast and lunch, for twelve weeks. On the other hand, the control group will be given a placebo. Blood samples will be collected before and after the intervention to measure changes in blood lipid profile, fasting blood sugar, sex hormones (testosterone, estrogen, progesterone), TNFα, IL-6, adiponectin, IGF1, HbA1C, SHBG, FSH, LH, and plasma total antioxidant capacity. ;
