Hi.

Tylenol should be okay, but it will only help to suppress the symptoms temporarily, and will not really do much on a long term basis. As I am not her gynaecologist I would only recommend to contact her gynaecologist and ask the doctor what would be best for your wife at this moment.

Best wishes.
