This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This is a small pilot study designed to test whether acetaminophen or ibuprofen works better for treating period cramps in women who have Crohn's disease. You would take each medication during different menstrual cycles and report how well it works for your pain. The study helps researchers prepare for a larger trial in the future.
Women with Crohn's disease often struggle with period cramps, but doctors don't have clear guidance on which common pain reliever is safest and most effective for this group. This study aims to gather that information before conducting a larger, more definitive trial.

You would start with one in-person screening visit that includes blood work, a physical exam, pregnancy test, and stool sample. After that, everything happens at home over four menstrual cycles. Before each cycle, you'll submit a stool sample and answer a quick survey. When period cramps start, you'll take the assigned medication for three days and report how your cramps feel through short surveys. After finishing the medication, you'll submit another stool sample and complete two more brief surveys. At the end, you'll have a phone call with a researcher to share your feedback about the study.
