What’s wrong with feeling your uterus sagging when your period comes?

Feeling uterine prolapse during menstruation is not an organic uterine prolapse, but a physiologic feeling of lower abdominal cramping that may be related to the action of prostaglandins. Do not be overly anxious about feeling uterine prolapse during menstruation. It is actually a subjective sensation of lower abdominal distension, a common symptom during menstruation, rather than organic uterine prolapse, which may be related to pelvic congestion and elevated endometrial prostaglandin levels. Prostaglandins can cause excessive contraction of uterine smooth muscle and vasospasm, resulting in discomfort due to uterine ischemia and hypoxia. In addition to discomfort in the lower abdomen, there may be lumbosacral discomfort, diarrhea and other gastrointestinal disorders, headache, emotional instability and other manifestations during menstruation. Mild discomfort during menstruation is often a physiological phenomenon, and should be eliminated by eliminating tension, ensuring adequate rest and sleep, and regular exercise. If severe abdominal pain or other strong discomfort occurs, you should seek medical attention.
