"When I'm suffering from dysmenorrhea, I take Advil as my pain reliever, and it works for me, and I feel well after I take this medicine. I started to use Advil as my pain reliever when I was 18 years old, and until now I'm 45 years. I take Advil every time my dysmenorrhea attacks. I also recommend it to my daughter, she said, 'Mama, it is very effective for me also.'"
