Mackenzie answered Wednesday August 24 2005, 9:23 pm: Hmm. Ya know.. I've never thought about that. Maybe??? I guess it's worth a shot? Just try it once, and see how it turns out.
Really, many women start taking pills around the clock from the time their cycle starts, until it ends. Any pain killer will do, but I reccommend Ibuprofen, Extra Strength Advil or Midol -- it's also best to take medication with a meal, that way the risk of stomach discomfort is slimmed.
