Hi,

Pregnancy has to be ruled out first for this condition by doing a urine pregnancy test. If urine pregnancy test comes negative then I would suggest you to have a course of Medroxyprogesterone tablet for 5 days and antispasmodic Drotaverine tablets for 5 days. Also, thyroid profile test is required for this condition as thyroid abnormality can lead to these symptoms.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
