A member asked:

My doctor gave me vitamin e supplement for my amenorrhea. does that mean i have vitamin e deficiency? is it dangerous?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Low Vit E: I dont know of any data showing a connection between vitamin e deficiency and amenorrha. Vitamin e is fat soluble and therefore is more prone to toxicity. This would all depend on the dose of vit e, and your height, wt, etc. I would ask your doctor to reevaluate the plan or get a second opinion.
