Can I have sclertherapy injections during my period? Thank you!

You can safely have sclerotherapy during your menstrual period. There is no contraindication and should not be any side effects.

Thank you for posting this important clinical question about having sclerotherapy during menses.This is a commonly asked question in our practice.I perform a lot of sclerotherapy procedures and find that there is no absolute or relative contraindication or added risk of having sclerotherapy done during menses. Such hormonal alterations during this phase of your cycle confer no added risk of superficial or deep vein thrombophlebitis or thrombosis. Read my book about venous disease and watch Dr. Raffy's video about sclerotherapy from the Doctor's TV Show on my website.My books are free access on the ebook section of my website.
