This is a rather common condition, affecting up to 50% of females, and is one of the main reasons for visiting the gynecologist's office. Girls with early age are menarche and positive family history are more predisposed to suffer from dysmenorrhea.
Treatment is with anti-inflammatory drugs and birth control pills.
Regarding acne, it's not uncommon for girls to have flare ups around the time of the menstrual cycle due to changes in hormone levels. Treatment starts with topical applications of clindamycin or erythromycin creams/solutions. If poor results or no response are seen, we usually give a try of local tretinoin cream plus a topical antibiotic containing cream. The 3rd step is oral doxycycline. Finally we resort to retinoic acid by mouth.
