Do NSAIDS make your period lighter?

by anonymous

in NSAIDs

I’ve been taking 500 mg naproxen for my cramps & it seems like everytime I take it I don’t bleed as heavily & my cramps are almost completely gone. Does this happen to anyone else? Just curious :)

It might relax the muscle but in reality NSAIDS thin the blood and make you bleed more. You can have the flow often times when it comes out in clot is it perceived as being heavier. And it can be just as much blood when it flows freely.I am glad it helps.

Yes they do. I take Mefenamic acid 250 mg. Its does reduce menstrual flow. Ppl take them for different reasons, some for cramps or some because fibroids cause a heavier flow…etc
