Patient's question:
Is it effective to get an anti-inflammatory shot during menstruation?Doctor's answer:
You can receive anti-inflammatory injections during your menstrual period, and this will have no effect on your period. Avoid taking blood-activating medications during your period to prevent an increase in menstrual flow. A woman's menstrual cycle is regulated by the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis. Factors such as mental stress, emotional fluctuations, environmental changes, pregnancy, age, illness, medication, and nutritional status can all disrupt the function of this axis, leading to menstrual irregularities. A delay or advancement of about one week in the menstrual cycle is considered normal. If the menstrual period is delayed by more than 10 days, it is necessary to visit a gynecological department in the hospital for appropriate examinations to confirm the diagnosis.
