Ibuprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) commonly used to reduce pain, fever, or inflammation. It is true that for some people, certain types of NSAIDs, including ibuprofen, can temporarily cause changes in menstrual bleeding or even delay your period. However, ibuprofen is not intended to be used as a method for inducing periods. If you are hoping to regulate your periods, please consult with a healthcare provider.
