How long should it take to pass a 6mm kidney stone once it feels like it's near my clitorous and tearing me? is flomax (tamsulosin) okay for females?

Hopefully pass soon: However, 6mm stone is at the cusp for passing spontaneously. Might need some help from your urologist. Flomax (tamsulosin) is OK for females & well worth taking to try & dilate ureter to facilitate passage of kidney stones.

Varies: How long it takes to pass will vary. Most stones that are 6mm will eventually pass. If the pain is not well managed it can be removed endosopically(by working through a cystoscope). It is fine for a female to take flomax (tamsulosin) to help relax the ureter for the stone to pass. Best wishes.
