Patient's question:
Before my period comes, my throat is always dry and hoarse, and I cough. Before, I never coughed, but I've been coughing a lot since having my child. The last time I coughed for over 20 days, I was almost better, but now my period is coming again, and I'm coughing a bit. It's said that chronic coughing can lead to cancer. I want to ask what's going on and if there's a connection.Doctor's answer:
Lung cancer is a common malignant tumor in the respiratory tract. Early symptoms are often not obvious, and as the condition progresses, symptoms such as coughing with phlegm and blood, chest tightness, and shortness of breath may reappear. Your cough is mainly due to a weakened immune system, leading to upper respiratory infections during your menstrual period. It is recommended to pay attention to regular exercise.The above suggestions are for the question "My throat is always dry and hoarse before my period." I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
