About the trial

What the trial wants to find out

ProMetrioS is a randomised blinded placebo-controlled cross-over trial investigating the effect of specific multistrain probiotics in patients with endometriosis. The aim of this clinical trial is to determine whether probiotic treatment can significantly modulate gut microbiome composition and functionality in endometriosis patients, specifically parameters associated with the estrobolome.

The 2 groups in the trial

  • patient group 1Treatment being tested

    Arm 1: Probiotic-Placebo Sequence Description: Participants will consume Omni Biotic Stress (multistrain probiotic formulation) once daily for 8 weeks during the first phase, followed by an 8-week washout period, and then placebo once daily for 8 weeks during the second phase. Interventions: Dietary Supplement: Omni Biotic Stress; Other: Placebo

    Treatment: Omni Biotic Stress and Placebo

  • patient group 2Treatment being tested

    Arm 2: Placebo-Probiotic Sequence Description: Participants will consume placebo once daily for 8 weeks during the first phase, followed by an 8-week washout period, and then Omni Biotic Stress once daily for 8 weeks during the second phase. Interventions: Other: Placebo; Dietary Supplement: Omni Biotic Stress Participants will record adherence and any potential side effects in an online form. Researchers will check the number of used sachets to ensure accuracy of adherence data.

    Treatment: Omni Biotic Stress and Placebo
