Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? What medicine should I take for stomach pain during my period?Doctor's answer:
For women with severe menstrual pain, atropine 0.5 mg can be administered via intramuscular injection, or pain-relieving medications such as aspirin can be taken. Alternatively, both drugs can be used in combination. Additionally, treatment should be targeted at the underlying cause of the menstrual pain. For example, if pelvic inflammatory disease or tumors are the causes of menstrual pain, treating these primary conditions can lead to the resolution of the pain.Hormonal therapy can also be used, such as taking ethinyl estradiol at a dose of 2.5 to 5.0 mg orally, or megestrol at a dose of 4 to 8 mg, once daily, starting on the 5th day of the menstrual cycle and continuing for 22 days, followed by a break. This regimen should be repeated for three cycles. Alternatively, progesterone can be administered at a dose of 10 to 20 mg via intramuscular injection, once daily, starting seven days before the onset of menstruation and continuing for five days.
Starting from the 6th day of the menstrual cycle, diethylstilbestrol can be taken orally at a dose of 0.5 to 1.0 mg per day, for a total of 20 days.
