How We Treat Endometriosis at The Clara Clinic

Chances are if you’re here, you’ve been struggling with endometriosis for far too long.

Our team is here to help you take the guesswork out of navigating endometriosis, and provide you with a customized and realistic treatment plan.

While many treatments focus on surface-level symptom relief, our approach combines thorough assessments, lab testing, lifestyle guidance, and consistent follow-up and monitoring. This integrated method ensures you feel supported at each stage of the journey. By looking deeper than the symptoms alone, we can craft a personalized plan to help you feel empowered, improve your quality of life, and get back to the things that matter. Read on to learn about our 5-step Conquering Endometriosis Program and how we support you every step of the way.

What Is Endometriosis Anyway?

Endometriosis is a chronic and debilitating condition which presents as extremely painful, and often unbearable periods. We don’t fully understand why endometriosis occurs, or how it develops. At this time, likely causes include immune dysfunction, pelvic inflammation, abnormal hormone production, hormone resistance, imbalanced microbiome, and genetics. Endometriosis affects 1 in 10 women of reproductive age. It’s diagnosed in 5 in 10 women experiencing infertility, and 5 in 10 women experiencing chronic pelvic pain. In North America, it takes an average of 15 years for a woman to receive a proper diagnosis of endometriosis, which delays treatment and significantly reduces quality of life!

Common Symptoms of Endometriosis We Treat

• Extremely painful periods

• Chronic pelvic pain

• Chronic abdominal pain, low back pain, or hip pain

• Painful intercourse

• Painful urination or bowel movements

• Digestive symptoms including nausea, vomiting, bloating, diarrhea, or constipation

• Excessive menstrual bleeding and clots

• Infertility or difficulty getting pregnant

• Depression & anxiety

• Sexual dysfunction & relationship impacts

When left untreated, not only do the symptoms of endometriosis leave you feeling completely helpless, but you also become at risk for a number of complications including infertility, adhesion development, SIBO, and sexual dysfunction.

Conquering Endometriosis: Our 5 Step Program

It’s time to reclaim your endometriosis and feel great in your body again! This is exactly why we created the Conquering Endometriosis Program. This 5-step program will help you reduce your symptoms, prevent long-term risks, and take the guesswork out of managing your endometriosis, so you can get back to feeling like yourself!

Our 5-step program

1. Identify Barriers  - We complete extremely comprehensive intakes and lab testing to understand your general health status, your immune status, your hormone status, and identify where things are going wrong. We also send you home to complete symptom monitoring so we can start to pick up on your unique symptom patterns.

2. Support Foundations – This is where your treatment begins. We ensure the foundations of health are in place so your symptoms resolve faster and we’re maintaining these results long-term. This includes correcting things like immune function, digestive function, microbiome balance, and environmental exposures. Often just supporting these and putting them into place is all you need! We teach you how to implement foundational supports in a balanced way so you never feel restricted.

3. Customized + Targeted Supplementation – Once we receive all of your lab results and symptom diary we start targeting treatment specifically to you. This often takes the form of highly concentrated supplementation and is completely based on your unique physiology and barriers. In some cases of endometriosis, bioidentical hormones, and specifically progesterone, is recommended.

4. Ongoing Coaching + Monitoring – Once we’ve set you up with a customized and targeted approach, we don’t just leave it at that—we actively track your progress to ensure you're seeing real results. This is achieved through continuous coaching and ongoing monitoring. With coaching, we ensure that our plan integrates smoothly into your daily routine, because without that, the outcomes you want simply won’t happen. Our monitoring includes regular blood work and in-depth reassessment of your key concerns, so there’s no uncertainty. You’ll have a clear, concrete understanding of how our treatment is specifically working for your endometriosis.

5. Maintenance – Once your initial concerns have been addressed, we create a new plan for you to carry forward to help sustain your results and prevent long-term risks such as infertility that often accompany endometriosis. Our goal at this point is that you’ve become such an expert in understanding your own body that you only need us for maintenance support quarterly or bi-annually!
