Caffeine-based remedy and cataflam can cut off menstruation?

Expert answer:

No, caffeine-based medicine and cataflam do not cut menstruation. Cataflam can, yes, impair the woman's fertility and should therefore be avoided by women who are trying to become pregnant or who are having difficulty conceiving.

However, it is very unlikely that cataphlam or any other caffeine-based medicine will cut off menstruation.

  • Benzodiazepine tranquilizers;
  • Antidepressants;
  • Antipsychotics;
  • Corticoids;

  • Immunossupressores;

In case of delayed menstruation, speak with the gynecologist so that the origin of the delay is properly identified.
