Patient's question:
Due to an ovarian cyst, I have been taking oral medication since the fifth day of my period. However, this month, after the fifth day of my period, I ran out of medication, so I bought it on the seventh day. Can I still take it? How to follow up at the hospital: Have not visited. Proof of current medication: No medication taken. Medical history and surgery history: None.Doctor's answer:
Hello, I have carefully reviewed your medical condition. Taking medication on the 7th day of your menstrual cycle is also acceptable and will not cause any side effects. It is important to complete the course of treatment without missing any doses.Guidelines and suggestions:
It is recommended that patients use contraception during sexual activity for the first 7 days after starting medication. After 7 days, breastfeeding will be effective. From then on, it is best to start taking the medication on the 5th day of your menstrual cycle and take it at the same time every day.
The recurrence of ovarian cysts poses a serious threat to women's health. Patients should avoid sexual activity during treatment and pay attention to personal hygiene.
Finally, we hope that the female patient can receive effective treatment.
