The lack of prostaglandins is what causes the lining to shed and the uterus to contract. Ibuprofen (motrin, advil) block the prostaglandin pathway - great for cramps, not great for getting the bleeding over with. Also something to keep in mind.

Actually, OB/GYNs are using ibuprofen in DUB(Dysfunctional Uterine Bleeding), it is found that in high doses it can slow if not stop the bleeding for some patients. They generally resort to recommending this to women who have unusual reaction of BCPs causing an increase in bleeding/spotting issues. It may not be used that commonly, but I know for a fact that it has been.
