I have a 14 year old black female who is experiencing swelling of the
face (certainly the mouth) during her first day of menstruation . This
began a couple of months ago - one can also see some kind of oedema of
the extremities and . the patient is known to be allergic ,and at the
onset of those symptoms respond to phenergan (promethazine) . Inever
had a case like that in 15 years and would like to have advice about it.
what could be the explaination: hystamines released at menstruation? I
would be happy to learn more about it.
