ROSEMARY oil is as effective as widely used medication in reducing period pain, according to research by Mashhad University of Medical Sciences in Iran. Eighty-two women took a daily capsule of either rosemary or mefenamic acid, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug used to treat menstrual pain. It was found rosemary may reduce production of prostaglandin – the chemical that triggers the contractions of the womb behind menstrual cramps.
