The term “great aunt” generally refers to a woman’s menstrual period. The pain in the stomach before menstruation may be related to elevated prostaglandins, adenomyosis, chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, etc., which need to be analyzed specifically.
1. Elevated prostaglandins: Elevated prostaglandins in the endometrium of the uterus before the onset of menstruation will increase the contraction of the uterine smooth muscle and vascular spasms, which will cause the uterus to become ischemic and hypoxic, resulting in stomach pain.
2. Adenomyosis: Adenomyosis refers to the invasion of endometrial glands and mesenchyme into the myometrium and the maintenance of functional changes such as cyclic hyperplasia, exfoliation and hemorrhage, which cause corresponding symptoms, and women may experience chronic pelvic pain.
3. Chronic pelvic inflammatory disease: If there is inflammation in the pelvic cavity of a woman, the inflammation will be aggravated when she comes to menstruation, which will lead to a very painful stomach.
There may be other reasons for the stomach pain before menstruation, so it is recommended to go to the hospital in time for examination, to clarify the cause under the guidance of professional doctors, and to actively target treatment.
