Patient's question:
Doctor, my menstrual flow this month is less than usual, and I have some lower left abdominal pain, which feels a bit different from the pain of dysmenorrhea. Hello doctor, what is the reason for the reduced menstrual flow and the slight lower left abdominal pain? What should I do? Do I need to take medication?Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on your description, it seems likely that you may have adnexitis, which could be accompanied by thin endometrium, leading to reduced menstrual bleeding. It might be severe. In these days, you should avoid cold and stay hydrated, and also avoid spicy foods. Additionally, it is recommended to check how the abdominal pain is relieved after the period. If it persists for a long time, there may be a risk of adnexitis. In these days, avoid extremely cold foods and actively use medication for treatment and care.
