Primary dysmenorrhea is painful menstrual cramps without any evident pathology to account for them, and causes significant disruption in quality of life. Lactoferrin is a glycoprotein often occurred in mammalian grand such as cow's milk. Bovine lactoferrin shows analgestic effect via central nerve system in rodents and a few pilot studies in human.
