Tunisia Examines Ibuprofen's Impact on Fertility

Concerns have spread regarding the potential impact of long-term and frequent use of ibuprofen on hormonal and reproductive functions in both men and women, especially given its increased consumption in Tunisia and other places. Studies indicate that taking high doses of ibuprofen for several weeks may lead to an increase in luteinizing hormone and a decrease in testosterone levels in men, but there is no conclusive evidence that it directly causes infertility. For women, research shows that regular use during ovulation can temporarily disrupt it, which may affect the ability to conceive. It is advised not to overuse the medication, particularly on a daily basis or at high doses, and to avoid its use during pregnancy. Consulting a doctor is important if long-term use is necessary. Overall, ibuprofen is an effective medication, but excessive consumption can pose other health risks, and moderate use remains the safest option.
