Can alcohol swabs in the ears relieve menstrual cramps?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Can putting alcohol swabs in my ears relieve menstrual cramps?

Doctor's answer:

Currently, there is no conclusive research proving the effectiveness of this method. Differentiating treatment based on the type of dysmenorrhea is most important. Regularly massaging meridians and acupoints in daily life can also unblock Qi and blood. The occurrence of menstrual disorders not only affects the patient's health but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo a vaginal examination in the gynecology department of a hospital to identify the cause and then receive targeted treatment. It is also important to drink more water and pay attention to personal hygiene.
