Medication for menstrual pain okay while breastfeeding?

Over-the-counter medications such as Advil are usually good choices for menstrual pain relief. If the maximum dose is not sufficient, you can try Naproxen, another over-the-counter medication that may be more effective. Remember to take Naproxen with food to avoid stomach irritation. Acetaminophen (Tylenol) can also be used in combination with Advil or Naproxen as needed. Hot baths or using a heating pad can also help with pain relief.
