Acetaminophen (paracetamol) relieves menstrual cramps in women who take it.

the verdict
INSUFFICIENT LEANING
Recorded sources
3 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that acetaminophen (paracetamol) relieves menstrual cramps in women who take it?

Unclear. A small 4-month trial of 90 women found acetaminophen reduced cramp pain more than placebo, and a reference article says simple analgesics such as acetaminophen may reduce short-term dysmenorrhea pain. A real-world study of a hyoscine-plus-paracetamol combination also reported reduced menstrual pain, but it did not isolate paracetamol's effect.
