We evaluated how magnesium pidolate impacts primary dysmenorrhea in 30 young women. Over six menstrual cycles, we tracked their pain levels using a visual scale. Initially, no treatment was given, and subsequently, magnesium was administered just before menstruation.
The first day of menstrual pain showed a notable decrease with magnesium treatment, especially from the first to the sixth cycle. While there were some improvements on days two and three, those weren't statistically significant. Importantly, no side effects were reported, suggesting magnesium can be a reliable option for managing menstrual pain.

We investigated the impact of magnesium on primary dysmenorrhea through a double-blind study involving 50 participants. Over six months, 21 out of 25 women reported significant symptom relief, while only four felt no improvement.
The treatment notably reduced prostaglandin F2 alpha levels in the menstrual blood, suggesting that magnesium works by inhibiting its production. Additionally, magnesium may provide muscle relaxation and improve blood flow.
This makes it a promising and largely side effect-free alternative for managing pelvic pain.

We explored the impact of intravenous magnesium on chronic pelvic pain through an extensive review of existing literature. Analyzing 33 studies, including 26 randomized controlled trials, we found that while magnesium's effectiveness varies across different pain syndromes, it shows promise specifically for pelvic pain associated with endometriosis.
Conversely, evidence for its efficacy in treating conditions like neuropathic pain or chronic low back pain was found to be poor or unclear. This highlights magnesium's potential yet uncertain role in pain management, urging further research.

Improved pelvic pain

Saved from cramps during pregnancy. At 16 weeks, I was admitted with uterine hypertonicity. The pain continued, and various medications did not help. The doctor advised magnesium, which I took daily. Within three days, my symptoms improved significantly. Now at 23 weeks, I feel great with no more tone or discomfort.

Cramps relief
25 people found this helpful
Magnesium is essential, especially after 30. During my pregnancy, I suffered from a lack of it, leading to constant cramps. Once I started taking magnesium, the cramps ceased. It benefits bone growth, normalises heart rate, lowers blood pressure, regulates blood sugar, and alleviates muscle cramps and pelvic pain.

I started taking magnesium for my back pain. After a few days, I noticed a significant alleviation in pain. It nearly disappeared as long as I continued using it, but the pain returns if I skip a dose!

We explored the impact of magnesium alongside other supplements on pelvic pain and hematoma resorption in pregnant women at risk of miscarriage.
In our study, 56 women received either standard vaginal progesterone or that plus a supplement mix containing magnesium.
The results showed that those who took the supplements experienced faster improvement in symptoms like bleeding and abdominal pain compared to the control group.
This suggests that magnesium may play a beneficial role in easing pelvic pain and promoting tissue health during this stressful time.

Magnesium reduces pelvic pain effectively
We investigated whether oral supplementation with magnesium, alongside other nutrients, could alleviate pelvic pain in pregnant women. Monitoring 200 women receiving a combination of supplements, including magnesium, we found that this approach significantly reduced various adverse pregnancy outcomes, including pelvic pain.
The results suggest that magnesium plays a helpful role in managing discomfort during pregnancy. While the study primarily highlighted the benefits of high molecular weight hyaluronic acid, our findings point toward magnesium’s positive impact on easing pelvic challenges faced by pregnant women.

We explored the role of magnesium in managing pelvic pain and related women's health issues, like premenstrual syndrome and dysmenorrhea. Several studies indicated that magnesium supplementation is effective in reducing symptoms associated with these conditions.
We found positive links between magnesium intake and alleviation of menstrual discomfort. While the exact workings of magnesium in the body are not fully understood, its potential in improving women's health is worth considering.
Overall, magnesium could offer a beneficial option for tackling pelvic pain and other gynecological symptoms.

Mild laxative effect

I recommend Life magnesium for a gentle effect. It started working after two weeks. I took one capsule at night, which helped with belly issues without pain, and improved my sleep without interruptions. However, those without constipation might find this magnesium unsuitable.

I purchased zinc, magnesium, calcium, and vitamin D in concentrated capsules and took one of each before bed. Thankfully, my back pain has diminished, and the crackling in my bones has lessened.

Deep sleep
Excellent quality and quantity; this magnesium ensures comfort and deep sleep while relieving pelvic pain if taken before menstruation.

Cramps not relieved
I experienced leg cramps, especially at night, so I began taking two capsules. However, this led to diarrhoea and stomach pains. Reducing to one capsule didn't alleviate the cramps. I'm disappointed.

Magnesium shows promise for pain relief
We explored the effectiveness of magnesium in treating dysmenorrhoea, which is often characterized by painful menstrual cramps. In our review of several trials, we found that magnesium provided better pain relief than placebo and reduced the need for additional medication.
However, when compared to other treatments, its performance was inconsistent, and we couldn't establish a strong recommendation due to variations in dosages and treatment plans.
Overall, while magnesium shows promise for pelvic pain relief, further research is needed to confirm its efficacy and optimal use.

We examined how magnesium treatment compares to oral contraceptives in alleviating primary dysmenorrhea (PD) symptoms. Our study involved 172 women with PD who received either 200 mg of magnesium citrate or combination oral contraceptive therapy.
While magnesium treatment did help reduce pelvic pain, it was not as effective as the oral contraceptive method. Patients on magnesium experienced some improvements, especially with their pain scores and need for painkillers, but those on the contraceptive reported superior results.
