How Effective are NSAIDs in Gynecological Pain Management?
NSAIDs (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs) such as ibuprofen and naproxen are highly effective in managing menstrual pain and inflammation. They work by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins, which are chemicals in the body that promote inflammation and pain. For many women, NSAIDs provide significant relief from dysmenorrhea and endometriosis-related pain.
