Patient's question:
I am a college student, female, and only 20 years old. I'm always worried about irregular menstruation affecting my future fertility, and I feel embarrassed going to the hospital. Could you please advise on what to do about headaches during menstruation?Doctor's answer:
Menstrual cramps can be relieved by drinking ginger and brown sugar water and taking corresponding medication capsules, which can warm the meridians, promote blood circulation, and resolve blood stasis. Alternatively, soaking feet in warm water can help. Pay attention to preventing colds, eating less cold and refrigerated foods, and actively exercising to significantly improve your immunity. Extremely cold, cold, and refrigerated foods should not be consumed. Consuming fried foods can cause severe headaches. If symptoms persist, it is necessary to go to the hospital for a thorough examination to understand the underlying cause and receive targeted treatment. Patients should seek systematic and standardized examinations at reputable tertiary hospitals as soon as possible based on their specific conditions to ensure timely and effective treatment for a quick recovery.
