Effect of Yoga on Pelvic Pain and Quality of Life in Endometriosis

The Effect of Yoga on Pelvic Pain and Quality of Life in Women With Endometriosis

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 27 Aug 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Women may experience loss of work/education and disruption in family relationships due to endometriosis-related symptoms. While surgical and medical treatments provide effective results in the management of endometriosis-related pain, the rate of recurrence is high. There is a need for nurse-led studies to identify supportive practices and interventions that can improve the quality of life and comfort of women with endometriosis, as well as to assess the effectiveness of these interventions. Nurses, with their holistic and patient-centered approach, play a crucial role. Therapeutic communication between nurses and patients during the diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of endometriosis will contribute to disease management. While there are limited studies worldwide examining the effects of yoga on pain and quality of life in women with endometriosis, no studies have been found in our country on the effectiveness of yoga on endometriosis. Therefore, this study was designed to contribute to the literature and evaluate the effects of yoga on pelvic pain and quality of life in women with endometriosis.
