How to treat kidney stones in women?

My friend recently got kidney stones, and she's heard that treatments might be different for women. Is there anything specific to consider when trying to treat kidney stones in women?

Haan na, women often confuse kidney stone pain with menstrual cramps or backache. Always better to drink lots of water and get an ultrasound done to be clear.

The pain was so unbearable that I was crying in the doctor's office. Don't let anyone tell you to just bear it, please get proper pain relief medicines from a gynecologist or urologist.

As someone who has had stones twice, the treatment is the same for men and women. Focus on high hydration, get the stone size checked via ultrasound, and avoid self-medicating with random remedies.

Aap bilkul chinta mat kariye. Roz subah gunguna paani peena shuru karein aur khane me namak kam rakhein, aaram milega.

Keep your mind peaceful and don't worry. Drinking coconut water and fresh lime juice naturally helps cool the body and slowly flush the stones.

My sister had this last month and she was in absolute agony. The doctor told her to cut down on spinach and salt, and gave some syrup that helped pass the stone in a week.
