Can I Get Botox Injection During Period?
Question: I'm supposed to get botox in my bladder Thursday. My period.came tonight. Can I still have this procedure done?
Hello,
Thanks for your query.
From what i understand that you have planned for Botox Injection for over active bladder. Since you have your menstruation from yesterday it is advisable to differ it for 5 more days, as all the pelvic organs are congested during menstrual period.
Sometimes there is possibility of 9rinary retention afterr taking Botox - that necessitate catheterisation for some days .
In view of all these facts I would advise you to postpone it for a week.
Hope I have answered your query.
Please feel free to ask if you have any more questions I shall be happy to help you.
With Regards.
