Menstruation is a normal physiological response in women, but there are also abnormalities in the normal physiological response. Physiological pain is one of them, which is particularly troublesome for many women. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to the methods of alleviating it.
Types of dysmenorrhea
1. Primary dysmenorrhea: Primary dysmenorrhea refers to abdominal pain that occurs after menstruation, which occurs every month during the menstrual period. The causes of primary physiological pain are narrow uterine opening, underdeveloped uterus, or the presence of large endometrium in menstrual blood, which is called membranous physiological pain. Sometimes menstrual blood contains blood clots, which can also cause lower abdominal pain.
2. Secondary dysmenorrhea: Secondary dysmenorrhea refers to menstrual abdominal pain that occurs after several years or more, often caused by diseases. Such as endometriosis, pelvic inflammatory disease, pelvic congestion, etc. In recent years, it has been found that when the synthesis of prostaglandins in the endometrium increases, it can also cause dysmenorrhea.
