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.

Reduces pelvic pain
1 people found this helpful
The daily dosage of one tablet lasts more than three months. I learned about magnesium at my gynaecologist's visit due to severe pelvic pain. They recommended a dosage of 500-800 mg daily, and I felt wonderful—the pain decreased significantly. I previously relied heavily on painkillers but feel great now after two months. Additionally, I am less anxious and wake easily in the mornings.

Eases muscle spasms
1 people found this helpful
As autumn brings stress, I found my sleep deteriorating, waking frequently through the night. Stress triggered bizarre sensations under my right rib. After beginning to take one tablet daily after meals, I noticed improvement within a few days—the spasms subsided, and headaches persisted but my sleep improved slightly. Two weeks on, the spasms under the ribs were gone, and I felt less irritable, although sleep remained restless. I plan to keep using it!

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.

My beloved magnesium! This is not my first time purchasing this magnesium from Nature's Bounty; it's very well absorbed by the body. It has helped me recover my menstrual cycle; it's now regular, and menstrual pains have significantly decreased. I highly recommend it, and it's reasonably priced.

Alleviates PMS symptoms
Magnesium alleviates PMS symptoms! Among its many benefits, it has been scientifically noted that magnesium deficiency can lead to lower abdominal pain during the menstrual cycle. It aids in relaxing muscles, thus relieving low mood, irritability, anxiety, and stress, but to see a significant effect, one should take it for at least three months in the latter half of the cycle.

Excellent! This is my favourite magnesium! After using it for almost six months, my migraine attacks have reduced significantly. My headaches often dissipate on their own without the need for pain relief. I have experienced a restoration in my sleep post-COVID, and my leg pains have vanished too. I've become calmer as well.

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.

Magnesium not superior for pelvic pain
We set out to see if a new magnesium-based injection could relieve chronic pelvic myofascial pain better than traditional lidocaine. In our randomized, double-blind trial, women received either magnesium injections, lidocaine, or were placed on a waiting list for treatment.
Over 12 weeks, we monitored pain levels and quality of life through detailed questionnaires. Ultimately, the findings showed no significant benefits for magnesium over lidocaine. However, both treatments appeared to provide pain relief and improvements in quality of life, supporting common management practices.

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.
