Vitamin E reduces menstrual pain
We investigated whether vitamin E could help with primary dysmenorrhea, a common cause of pelvic pain for young women. In our study, 278 girls aged 15-17 took either vitamin E or a placebo before and during their menstrual periods.

Results showed that those taking vitamin E experienced significantly less pain and shorter pain duration compared to the placebo group. There was also a notable reduction in menstrual blood loss. This suggests that vitamin E may be a beneficial option for managing menstrual discomfort.

Vitamin E may reduce dysmenorrhea pain
In a double-blind clinical trial, we examined the impact of vitamin E on pelvic pain for 120 women suffering from primary dysmenorrhea. Participants were divided into two groups, with one receiving daily doses of 400 IU of vitamin E, while the other group received a placebo.

Our findings showed that both groups reported reduced pain; however, those taking vitamin E experienced a more significant drop in pain severity. This indicates that vitamin E could be a safe and effective option for treating menstrual pain in women.

Vitamin E offers menstrual pain relief
We explored how effective vitamin E is in treating primary dysmenorrhoea through a randomized placebo-controlled trial. In this study, 100 girls aged 16-18 were divided into two groups; one received 500 units of vitamin E daily, while the other took a placebo.

Treatment started two days before menstruation and continued for three days. Both groups experienced relief from pain, but those taking vitamin E reported more significant improvements.

This suggests that while both treatments help, vitamin E may offer an added benefit in managing menstrual pain.

PMS pain relief
6 people found this helpful
Gorgeous butter! I’m delighted with this purchase, which I made on the advice of a nutritionist. I had a severe deficiency and took vitamin E capsules without noticeable effects. So I tried wheat germ oil. Within a couple of days, my skin rashes started to fade, and most importantly, after a week, my periods began without any pelvic pain, which is a huge victory for me. Usually, I experience strong abdominal cramps, but this time, I didn't need any pills. I wholeheartedly recommend this for anyone suffering from PMS pain. Additionally, I've found it effective for minor cuts due to its healing properties. My health is improving!

Not bad! I researched the use of vitamin E for keloid scars, which helped reduce the itchiness and pain, though it didn’t significantly flatten them. The strong smell didn't bother me as much because it effectively eased my pain and discomfort. I haven't tried consuming it yet since I've only used it topically. I might look into consuming it for other health benefits!

Vitamin C and E reduce pelvic pain
We examined the effects of vitamin C and E on pelvic pain in women with endometriosis through a triple-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Sixty women aged 15-45 participated, receiving either the vitamin combination or a placebo daily for eight weeks.

Our results revealed noteworthy decreases in pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea, and dyspareunia for those who took vitamins, supporting their potential in managing endometriosis symptoms. While oxidative stress markers showed changes, total antioxidant capacity did not significantly decline.

Vitamin E supports pelvic pain relief
We explored the impact of antioxidants, specifically vitamins C and E, on pelvic pain associated with endometriosis. Analyzing data from five randomized controlled trials, we found that patients receiving vitamin supplementation reported significant reductions in chronic pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea, and dyspareunia compared to those on placebo.

This suggests that these vitamins may play a beneficial role in alleviating symptoms for those suffering from endometriosis-related pain. Overall, antioxidant supplementation presents a promising avenue for management of this challenging condition.

Vitamin E shows limited effectiveness
We examined how antioxidant vitamins, including vitamin E, may help reduce pelvic pain related to endometriosis. Our systematic review analyzed studies that used randomized controlled trials, focusing on pain scores assessed by the Visual Analogue Scale.

While the findings suggest that vitamin E supplementation might lower pain severity and improve overall well-being, the evidence does not conclusively support significant benefits for all individuals.

However, these antioxidants could still be considered as part of a comprehensive approach to manage pelvic pain associated with endometriosis.

We conducted a randomized, placebo-controlled trial to see if antioxidant vitamins, specifically vitamin E and C, could reduce pelvic pain in women suffering from endometriosis.

In our study with 59 women, we found significant improvements in chronic pain for 43% of those taking the antioxidants, compared to minimal changes in the placebo group.

Other symptoms like menstrual pain and pain during sex also showed reductions in the treatment group. Overall, our findings suggest that vitamin E can be a beneficial addition for managing endometriosis-related pelvic pain.

We examined the effects of vitamin E on primary dysmenorrhea, which causes painful menstrual cramps. In a systematic review, we analyzed randomized controlled trials comparing vitamin E supplementation to placebo in healthy women.

Although vitamin E may help reduce pain intensity for some women, the evidence is not strong enough yet. We recommend more robust clinical trials to provide clearer insights on its effectiveness.
