The Effect of Rubus idaeus Polyphenols Extract in Induced Endometriosis in Rats.

Study found that RiDE may reduce endometriosis lesion size and modulate expression of MMP-2, MMP-9, and TGF-β1 in rats. RiDE plus dienogest reduced weight gain and lesion size more effectively than dienogest alone, potentially offering anti-inflammatory effects.
