Vitamin E alleviates menstrual migraines
We investigated whether vitamin E could help women suffering from menstrual migraines. In a placebo-controlled trial, 72 participants received either a placebo or vitamin E for two cycles, with symptoms recorded monthly.
The results were noteworthy—vitamin E significantly reduced headache severity and related symptoms compared to the placebo. Women reported improvements in pain intensity and functional disability, showing vitamin E's potential as an effective treatment for menstrual migraines.

We explored how menopause affects headaches and the potential role of vitamin E in managing these symptoms. Among various treatment options, vitamin E emerged as one non-medication strategy that might help alleviate headaches related to hormonal changes during menopause. However, while some non-drug approaches like acupuncture and exercise show promise, there is limited evidence supporting the effectiveness of vitamin E specifically. We found that headaches can vary in frequency and severity during menopause, with many women experiencing little change in their headache status.

Vitamin E's mixed effects on headaches
We aimed to understand how vitamin E influences headaches in relation to oxidative stress and calcium levels. Our exploration involved the use of glyceryl trinitrate to induce migraine-like symptoms in experimental models.
We found that both riboflavin and vitamin E helped reduce oxidative stress and supported brain health. While vitamin E showed a significant protective effect against headache mechanisms, it did not provide a clear, standout benefit over riboflavin.
Overall, our findings suggest that vitamin E can play a role in tackling the challenges associated with headaches, but it may not be the sole solution.

After suffering from menorrhagia and headaches, I started taking high doses of vitamins C, E, D3, and K2 together. After a month, my bleeding normalised, and my headaches have greatly lessened. I believe niacin could be helping as well.

Vitamin E shows potential for migraines
We conducted a randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled pilot study to explore the effects of a combined antioxidant treatment—N-acetylcysteine, vitamin E, and vitamin C—on headaches in adults suffering from migraines.
After three months of treatment, we observed a significant reduction in monthly headaches for the antioxidant group compared to those receiving a sham treatment. Notably, there was a drop in average migraine days, headache intensity, and medication use among those on the antioxidant regimen.
However, while results are promising, further research with more participants is needed to confirm these findings.

We explored the effectiveness of a supplement combining pine bark extract and antioxidants, including vitamin E, for patients suffering from migraines that didn't respond to traditional medications.
In a small group of twelve participants, we saw potential improvements in headache frequency and severity after a three-month treatment period. Patients took capsules containing this antioxidant formulation while continuing their usual medications.
While the results are promising, further studies are required to fully assess the benefits of these antioxidants in migraine management.

Eliminated headache medication

No need for headache medicine! Since taking vitamin E for headaches, my family hardly uses painkillers. My high school-aged children no longer complain about headaches, and I feel their health has improved. When I sense a headache coming on, taking 2-3 pills helps significantly within an hour. I ensure to consume some oily food beforehand and prefer d-α-tocopherol for its efficacy.

I am uncertain how to express this, but I feel unwell after taking this product. Despite using it with Omega 3 and Vitamin D+K, I experienced headaches and a general sense of discomfort. I've stopped taking it.

Gradually increasing my intake to 2000 IU daily, I find that vitamin E has alleviated my menstrual pain, headaches, and stomach issues, making them considerably lighter.

Reduced PMS headaches
I take 800 mg of vitamin E every morning to alleviate my severe PMS symptoms, such as headaches and dizziness. While one of my periods is still painful, my other periods have become so manageable that I often forget about them. If pregnant, I recommend proceeding with caution.
