Can I Take The Medicine For The Pain On The First Day Of Menstruation?
I always have pain on first day of menstruation. I am told not to take medicine unless it can t be tolerated. So, every month I try to bear the pain for as long as possible but always end up taking one tablet of Meftalspas. I just want to know why should I not take single dose when the pain starts and not wait till it become unbearable ?..
