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.

My Miracle is here! Before taking this Coral Calcium Plus, I had constant, nearly crippling pain in all my joints, bones, and muscles. After one week of taking this and Vitamin D3, I feel like an 18-year-old. The deep, aching pain is gone! I have more energy than I ever had in my life—I'm 48 but felt like 88 before iHerb. Believe me, this really helps!

Perfect! A very effective form of calcium. My feet hurt for a long time, and the doctors couldn’t find the cause. I heard that coffee can wash out calcium, so I tried this without consulting a doctor. After a week, I no longer had pain when getting up, and now I jump from my seat like a child. After finishing the package, I noticed improvements in my back pain as well. I want to order it again and highly recommend it, but do consult your doctor first.

This was bought for my mother. Due to hip surgery, she often complains of pain two to three years post-operation and struggles with walking. The doctor suggested coral calcium combined with UC2. After a few days, she no longer complains of pain and can walk or even ride a motorcycle now, thanks to the calcium improving her bone density.

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.

Heel pain relief

Perfect! After researching a natural remedy for heel spurs, I bought this product with hope. I’d endured severe heel pain for over a year, but at around the two-month mark, I began to notice significant improvement. Now, three months in, my foot feels healed. I can walk barefoot without pain and have removed the orthotics from my shoes. I’m incredibly happy with this purchase!

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.
