A member asked:
I'm trying to conceive but i get really bad headaches everyday so i take 3 advils or ibuprofen everyday , will that stop me from conceiving ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not likely but...: Ibuprofen is generally safe in women trying to get pregnant and up until the 3rd trimester. But taking pain pills every day will often lead to worse headaches over time. Your body will get withdrawal from the meds and headache will flare. Best to stop the cycle and use them only occasionally. See a doctor about what might be causing the headaches and how to prevent them.
