We investigated the potential of vitamin E, when combined with pentoxifylline, in treating symptomatic epidural fibrosis, a common cause of persistent back pain after surgery.
A case study involving a patient suffering from chronic leg and back pain showed remarkable improvement after three months of this combined treatment over a period of 3.5 years.
By April 2001, he experienced total symptom regression, although residual fibrosis remained. This finding suggests that vitamin E could offer hope for individuals struggling with similar conditions, but more studies are necessary to validate these results.

Eased menstrual pain

I was worried about the painful cramps during my period, but since I started taking vitamin E, the pain has lessened significantly and I feel better. The smaller grain size makes it easy to take.

No more stiff shoulders

Holding my baby all the time caused me to have stiff shoulders and lower back pain. After I started taking vitamin E, the stiffness has vanished and I no longer experience back pain.

Reduced back pain
7 people found this helpful
I read Fujikawa's book and take it along with vitamin C, vitamin B50, iron supplements, and niacin. I've noticed a decrease in my lower back pain and muscle pain in my legs due to ageing. I previously took glucosamine chondroitin, but no longer need them. Vitamin E seems to improve blood circulation, which likely contributed to the relief from my back pain.

Relieved menstrual pain

I mistakenly bought synthetic vitamin E instead of natural, which is more expensive but still reasonable. After starting this, my terrible period pains have transformed. The constant pain in my lower abdomen has nearly disappeared.

I take vitamin E daily along with vitamin C, and I've noticed that the pain has lessened significantly.

Reduced menstrual pain
I increased my intake from one to five tablets daily over two months, and the most notable effect has been the reduction of menstrual pain and pre-menstrual symptoms. Despite having a large bottle of 250 tablets, the benefits are worth it, and I'm considering natural options next.

Supports women’s health
2 people found this helpful
I consistently take vitamin courses for AIT and hypothyroidism. Vitamin E is legendary for benefiting women’s health, normalising cycles, and improving hair, nails, and skin. It’s an antioxidant that inhibits oxidative processes, thus helping with overall health, including alleviating back pain. Consult a specialist before using it to avoid overdose symptoms.
