I have to remove my wisdom teeth tomorrow, but I’ve got my period today and I think I ma not suppose to. I am not sure whether I should cancel the appointment. I have terrible stomach cramps, but my teeth hurt too. What I should do please help me!

I know that they usually say that women who have to have their wisdom teeth removed should try to schedule the surgery for the end of their menstrual cycle. It is usually days 23 through 28. This because the possible risk of dry socket can occur during this time. I understand that you are in pain, but I would cancel if I were you.
