What causes menstrual cramps?

Period pain (also known as menstrual cramps) are common and a normal part of the menstrual cycle. They usually feel like painful muscle cramps in the tummy and can also be felt in you back and thighs. The type of pain caused by menstrual cramps differ from person to person, some people experience intense spasms, while at other times it may be dull but more constant.

This pain is caused when the muscular wall of your womb tightens (contracts). During your period your womb wall contracts more vigorously to help the womb lining shed as part of your period. During these contractions, the blood vessels lining your room are compressed which temporarily cuts off the blood and oxygen supply to your womb. Without oxygen the tissues in your womb release chemicals that trigger pain.

Period pain caused by medical conditions 

Period pain can occasionally be caused by underlying medical conditions such as:

• Endometriosis – Where cells that normally line the womb grow in other places, such as in the fallopian tubes and ovaries, which cause intense pain when they shed
• Fibroids – Non-cancerous tumours that can grow in or around the womb and can make your periods heavy and painful
• Pelvic inflammatory disease – This is when your womb, fallopian tubes and ovaries become infected with bacteria, causing them to become severely inflamed
• Adenomyosis – where the tissue that normally lines the womb starts to grow within the muscular womb wall, making your periods particularly painful

How does Nurofen help to ease menstrual cramps?

The active ingredient in Nurofen Period Pain is ibuprofen which belongs to a group of medicines known as Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs). Ibuprofen changes how our bodies respond to pain by reducing the hormones that cause pain and swelling in the body. One 400mg dose (2 capsules) can relieve pain for up to 8 hours.
