Heavy periods

Vitamin E really helped my breast tenderness. Raspberry leaf tea is also great for cramps. I use 2 tea bags, boiling water, steep for 7 minutes. My cramps are considerably less or nonexistent about 30 minutes later. Not a root-cause answer but it helps.

Is vitamin E safe to take once the period starts ? Can take Vitamin E always ? Whereas progesterone you’d want to stop ?

I like this idea. Maybe vitamin e before trying progest-e.

Can you take vitamin E at any time throughout the period ?

Is vitamin E safe even once the period has started ? Or only before

She hasn’t used it during her period. Not for any particular reason though. Just not compelled to I guess.

Can you take vitamin E at any time throughout the period ?

Yes you can. I’d personally cycle it, up to 3 months on and then a break. Many like to use vitamin e in the follicular phase and progesterone in the luteal phase. Or if not using progesterone, just the vitamin e every day.
