Patient's question:
I had an ovarian cyst removal surgery in early October. After the surgery, as recommended by the doctor, I received monthly injections. My October menstrual cycle (in terms of both volume and timing) was normal.Doctor's answer:
Hello: Based on your description of symptoms, it is unlikely to be related to Norethisterone. Currently, you need to pay attention to the following:1. Always maintain a positive mental state, avoid mental stress and emotional shocks. Some individuals may experience lower abdominal bloating, lower back pain, breast tenderness, mild nausea and vomiting, fatigue, poor appetite, emotional instability, irritability, or tendency to depression during menstruation, which are all normal and there is no need to be overly anxious.
2. Pay attention to hygiene and prevent occupational infections. Maintain cleanliness of the external genitalia. Sexual intercourse is absolutely prohibited during menstruation. Be mindful of preventing cold exposure to avoid cold-induced irritation. Avoid overexertion. Those with heavy menstrual flow should avoid consuming brown sugar.
