Does caffeine really speed up the menstrual cycle?
Question:
Answers:
Caffeine is also a pain reliever If you look at some brands for migraine headaches, caffeine is one of them. Caffeine is also is a diuretic and stimulant. This is what makes you pee more. Caffeine should be avoided if you have menstrual problems because it tends to make it worse. Personally, it makes my cycle worse esp. if I eat and drink fast food and soda (coke or pepsi or mountain dew have lots of caffeine).
This is why naproxen is a better pain reliever than Midol during your period.
I've never heard of that. I think it is incorrect.
I doubt it. I've gone from a completely caffeine free diet to drinking a pot of coffee per day and everything in between, and my period never changes.
