It will usually make your menstrual cycle lighter by changing the prostanglandin synthesis. The effect on thinning blood is negligible in this case.
No, the opposite is true - non-steroidal anti-inflamatories such as ibuprofen actually can help reduce menstrual bleeding, just the same as drugs like Tranexamic Acid.
No u can not
Nurofen contains ibuprofen. Nurofen Plus also contains Codeine and is suitable for period pains.
Yes it can last longer
Worse than what? Your period shouldn't be bad to begin with, if it is then talk to your doctor about the menstrual problems that you suffer from and do something about them. Ibuprofen is a painkiller so can be used to deal with menstrual related headaches and menstrual cramps. Ibuprofen is also an NSAID so will help to reduce menstrual flow too, it's often used to treat heavy periods.
Actually if you exercise more the heavier it is. Because I was at volleyball camp and on my period it made it heavier. 2.14.11 Exactly! Even though it made your period heavier, more blood left your body and ultimatley shortened your period.
AnswerWell, I think it does. I haven't tried it, so, I wouldn't know.Many articles i have read online have have 2 different theories. Some women say that it does, some say that it just makes it heavier because it "thins your blood." I guess that it just depends on your body; it may for some people, may not for others. I would try it though; just make sure to not take over 1000 mg because ibuprofen can tear up the lining of your stomach.AnswerI always take ibuprofen whenever I have period cramps, and I've never noticed any difference in the amount of blood.
I doubt it, when you have your period it comes out of your vagina, a completely different hole to your uretha which the kidneys are attached to. Kidneys and the uterus are completely seperate.
