9. Home Remedies

Most home remedies have little to no scientific evidence that it helps. However, many women think that it is worth a try if it may help with the alleviation of symptoms. For those with mittelschmerz, the consumption of papaya may help with the cramps or discomfort associated with ovulation as it contains the enzyme papain.

Taking vitamin D supplements may also help as some have reported that it reduces the severity of cramps associated with ovulation. Omega-3 fatty acids have anti-inflammatory properties that may help with pain. Drinking a cup of chamomile tea may also be beneficial as it boosts the levels of glycine, a type of amino acid that helps to relax contracting muscles. This would work best for those who experience cramps during ovulation.
