My friend said to take a ibuprofen pill to stop your period from coming for a few days. I want to go swimming today and I took one because my period is coming up due. I got to thinking and this is a really cool medicine then but how will I know if I'm pregnant if it has delayed my period, right? Will ibuprophen affect a pregnancy test then?

I've used it before on my periods for pain and rather than make it go away, it made me bleed even more! I do not recommend using pain pills in this way. That could become a habit and make you really sick!!!! [ VannaTheStrange's advice column | Ask VannaTheStrange A Question ]
