Dysmenorrhea may arise from primary dysmenorrhea or secondary dysmenorrhea. Relief of dysmenorrhea can be achieved by paying attention to warmth, rest, local hot compresses and pain relieving medications. 1. Primary dysmenorrhea: the cause of pain is usually due to poor discharge of menstrual blood, spasm of uterine smooth muscle and small blood vessels, and excessive release of prostaglandins, etc. It can be relieved by paying attention to warmth, taking sufficient rest, and applying localized hot compresses. 2. Secondary dysmenorrhea: the causes include endometriosis, adenomyosis, etc. When dysmenorrhea occurs, it lasts for a longer period of time and tends to aggravate progressively, and it is usually relieved by taking painkillers such as ibuprofen on the basis of lifestyle intervention. If dysmenorrhea lasts for a long time, it is recommended to consult a doctor and take standardized methods of intervention under the guidance of the doctor to promote the relief of discomfort and avoid unauthorized use of medication.
