How to treat labial swelling and pain during menstruation

Patient's question:

I got married last year, and recently I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain. It's especially severe during my period, and I'm very worried it might affect fertility. I also feel extremely cold and fear the cold. How can I treat swollen labia during my period?

Doctor's answer:

Swelling of the labia could be caused by a bacterial infection leading to inflammation. You can try cleaning with a feminine wash first, drink more water, eat more fruits and vegetables, and reduce the intake of spicy and irritating foods while maintaining hygiene in the vaginal area.
For the sake of the baby, I suggest you try not to get angry so easily now that you’re going to be a mother. You need to learn to control yourself, especially during the first three months, which is a critical period for the baby’s development. I hope you stay happy and joyful, as this will help the baby grow healthily. Don’t overthink things—just wait a little longer, and you’ll soon be able to see the baby’s shape.
