As someone who developed endometrial cancer at an "age much younger than expected", 50 rather than 70+! health professionals said, Please anyone who has 7 day heavy painful periods, please get them checked out properly. Problem is getting past the, "what do you expect, you are a woman", ignorance first.
Wishing everyone, good health.3 -
Yup it’s great to reduce the bleeding. I am meant to be on it as part of pain management and it messed it right up!0

No, but a comma is like a (meno)pause.0

OP Here and I agree. A few days after I stopped my prescription my period returned in full force. 😵rickswifey83 wrote: »caco_ethes wrote: »This would’ve been helpful to know 2 weeks ago :grumble:
Or even 23 years ago for me...that would have been useful in many circumstances

I have never heard of ibuprofen effectively stopping or reducing your flow!
Pregnancy can do that , pcos or if you’re underweight , not eating enough or sick in some way. If your body is in repair if some sort due to trauma be it physically or mentally?
I'm convinced it stopped mine. I think it has to be a very high dose and still only has that effect on some of us.1 -

It does stop periods. Speak to your doctor. Something to do with the inflamation. Obviously it depends on the dose your taking too. I have used it many times to reduce it when iv needed to. I was on NSAIDS for 2 years before deciding to go drug free for AS because they were really hard on my stomach.0 -

Do you have to start taking it before your period starts?
God mine are miserable. And BC makes me miserable.1 -

I was always on the pill anyway and I was taking it everyday for pain management but before then I would take it a couple days before hand at the highest dose and during until it was over. If I stopped or dropped the dose part way through my period it would stop working.0 -

I was taking them before my period, my period started, barely, then stopped until after I finished my RX. It started at a normal glow like 2 days later. ;(
