A member asked:
Should i try magnesium citrate supplement powder for menstrual cramps/pain? are side effects too risky if i don't know if i'm deficient?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Magnesium Citrate is excellent if you are constipated. However taking it for menstrual cramps would not ease your discomfort.
