Does Ibuprofen Or Tylenol Help?
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

At work and in so much pain!!!!!!

Does anyone feel that ibuprofen or Tylenol help??? My doctor keeps telling me to take both at the same time and it doesn't help whatsoever!!!!!!!!! I don't know what to do!!! If you ask for anything stronger they think you're just a drug seeker 😡😡😡 this is so upsetting to me!

It's extra strength midol! Stuff girls use specifically for period cramps and the like. I didn't know about it either until my roommate presented them to me!!

Maxidol seems to be my best over the counter bet. Tylenol or Advil don't seem to work; T3s don't work great for me either. Marijuana works the best --with maxidol for best results, I find.

I find ibuprofen helps when i have pain. My Dr. gives me an 800 mg Rx for it. If you don't have a Rx for such dosage try the otc 200mg ibuprofen, take 3 or 4 depending how bad your pain is. Tylenol doesn't help me with that pain.

Use a heating pad on your lower back... I find it helps along with the Motrin, I find Tylenol don't do anything but hurt my stomach then I have two different pains..
