Patient's question:
Menstruation came on the 9th, and it didn't end until the 16th. On the 18th, I had a fever, and the blood test showed low white blood cells, only 3.39. The doctor prescribed some medication that would never cause low white blood cells, but my period still hasn't come by the 14th of this month. The early pregnancy test strips showed negative. The medications are extended-release acetaminophen tablets (acetaminophen extended-release tablets), Qingkailing capsules, and Xiao Chaihu granules.Past Treatment and Effectiveness:
I took these medications for 3 days before I felt better.
Kind of Help Needed:
Hello, will these medications cause menstrual irregularity? Besides, why did the test strips show negative on the 11th, and still negative on the 13th (I bought two different types of test strips) when I tested.
Doctor's answer:
Hello! The reasons for menstrual irregularities include: 1. Neuroendocrine dysfunction; 2. Organic inflammation such as anemia, or medication; 3. Due to excessive mental stress, malnutrition, etc.; 4. Unhealthy lifestyle, excessive dieting, and habits like smoking and drinking, abnormal emotions, high pressure, and medication. It is recommended that patients pay more attention to their diet in daily life and avoid stimulating foods. Rest more!
