Interesting that ibuprofen is an anti-fungal. That could make sense why my Acne seems to calm during my period, cause I usually need to take Advil for the pain. Unfortunately, ibuprofen also does a lot of damage to the gut, so if I were you, I'd definitely take some type of leaky gut supplement (there are a few on Amazon... Look for a supplement with l-glutamine and herbs like marshmallow and slippery elm). Otherwise, you'll be killing candida but then making your leaky gut worse if you continually take the ibuprofen. Just my two cents! Thanks for chiming in.
