Suggest Treatment For Meningitis
I just had a spinal tab to diagnose meningitis. Within 15 minutes had horrible abdominal and uteran cramping. Shortly after followed by large clots as if my period had started but it is not due for 3 weeks and I am extremely regular. Can lumbar punctures induce menstruation.? It was not a smooth nor successful procedure.

Hello
Thank you for trusting HCM
Dear lumbar puncture won't cause early cycle induction, may be stress or hormonal changes can cause this problem. Treatment for meningitis depend on the cause. Is it bacterial or fungal etc. Please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly. I think I answered to your question if you have more questions please feel free to ask me.
