kidney stones?

how long do kidney stones take to exit the body - for a female.

Update:

It's not me that has them (thank you) it's my BF's ex-wife and she's had them since Friday. I'm thinking...really? comon...I've never heard of them taking so long!! But, maybe... so I asked in here.

    Every individual is different, if you are referring to the difference between the anatomy of a female and a male I don't believe it matters you just keep flushing the system with water and pray that will do the trick otherwise it requires surgery! Good Luck if this is for you!

    it depends where the stone is upper kidney or in the bladder, also depends on size, it too large u may not be able to pass it. however if it is small enough drink tons of water no soda. and walk

    If you have them they must be very small. Drink lots of water and they should pass, but be aware of the pain that you will have to endure while passing them, it hurts like H__L.
