Patient's question:
Female, 21 years old, experiencing mild abdominal pain during menstruation. What kind of medication should be used?Doctor's answer:
Menstrual pain, also known as dysmenorrhea, is one of the most common symptoms among gynecological patients. Many women experience mild discomfort during their period, but menstrual pain refers to the pain during the period that affects normal activities and requires medication. Periodic menstrual pain is common and occurs in most menstrual cycles, with symptoms being relatively severe. It is recommended to visit a hospital for a check-up, pay attention to your health regularly, avoid excessive cold exposure, and drink more hot brown sugar water during your period. Using a heating pad on your abdomen can also help alleviate symptoms.
