Is vitamin E useful for dysmenorrhea?

Menstrual pain is something that many women experience during their menstrual period, but because it is so common, it is often ignored. I think menstrual cramps are a normal condition and it will be fine as long as I endure the pain. In fact, menstrual pain is also one of the main manifestations of many gynecological diseases, and it is necessary to find the cause of the disease and treat it in multiple aspects in time. If the menstrual pain is severe, you can also take some measures to relieve it, such as supplementing with vitamin E.

A new overseas study shows that vitamin E is beneficial in treating dysmenorrhea. The onset of female dysmenorrhea is related to the high level of prostacyclin, a substance similar to growth hormone, while vitamin E can help block the production of prostacyclin. Previous studies have shown that compound vitamin E has a therapeutic effect on dysmenorrhea, but now natural vitamin E has gradually replaced compound vitamin E, so it is more effective to take natural vitamin E capsules to relieve and treat dysmenorrhea.

Gynecologists also introduced that after menstrual pain occurs, the pain can be relieved by supplementing foods rich in vitamin E, drinking alcohol in moderation, and symptomatic food conditioning. Vitamin E has the function of maintaining the normal function of male reproductive organs and muscle metabolism. Foods with high content of vitamin E include grain germ, wheat germ, egg yolk, bean products, nuts, leafy vegetables, cooking oil, sesame oil, etc. Patients with dysmenorrhea should eat more of this kind of food.

Vitamin E is mainly found in various cooking oils that we consume daily. If the diet is too bland and low in oil, it may lead to vitamin E deficiency, which can affect the normal menstrual cycle, cause menstrual pain, early menstrual syndrome and other related problems. Therefore, to prevent menstrual cramps caused by lack of vitamin E, avoiding an overly bland diet is one aspect, and on the other hand, you can supplement vitamin E by taking Ziyi natural vitamin E capsules to play a protective role.
