    Most women I know (including myself) aren’t in excruciating agony for the entire time they’re bleeding. But admittedly there’s always the occasional one that’s way worse than usual, and sometimes I’ll go through a whole box of 16 ibuprofen during the week.

    In which case we just…add a new box onto the shopping delivery for a few pence? It’s not like it’s some kind of major hassle, it’s just one more click on the weekly shop, and we tend to always keep a spare box around just in case of emergencies.
