# Can noofen help with painful periods and anxiety symptoms?

Girls with painful periods and anxiety symptoms who took noofen showed improvement in their symptoms over 30 days. The study found noofen was effective for treating these problems.

 Early or limited evidence

75 women aged 14-17 with painful periods and anxiety symptoms

## What they did

75 women aged 14-17 with painful periods and anxiety symptoms were divided into two groups. One group (45 women) received noofen 500 mg daily. The other group (30 women) received cyclic vitamin therapy (1 tablet on days 1-14 of the cycle, 2 tablets on days 14-28). The study lasted 30 days.

## What they found

Girls with painful periods had various nerve complaints and autonomic disorders. They also had higher anxiety and fatigue. Noofen was shown to work in treating these conditions.

## What it means for you

Noofen may help reduce painful periods and anxiety symptoms in teenage girls. The main limitations are we do not know how well noofen compares to the vitamin therapy the other group received, and this is a short 30-day study.
