The term “vacation” is generally used to refer to a woman’s menstrual period. Menstrual pain can be relieved by rest, medication or surgery.
Depending on the cause, dysmenorrhea can be categorized into primary and secondary, mainly manifested as lower abdominal swelling and pain during menstruation, and relief methods mainly include the following.
1. Rest: Good habits such as avoiding late nights, regular work and rest, eating a balanced diet, and exercising moderately can alleviate menstrual cramps to a certain extent.
2. Drugs: Dysmenorrhea can be relieved by taking medications, including antispasmodics, analgesics, prostaglandin synthase inhibitors, contraceptives, such as ibuprofen, diclofenac, medroxyprogesterone acetate, and so on.
3. Surgery: If secondary dysmenorrhea is difficult to be relieved by conservative treatment, appropriate surgical treatment can be chosen for the cause of dysmenorrhea.
If the symptoms of dysmenorrhea are severe, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital to find out the cause of dysmenorrhea, under the guidance of the doctor, targeted treatment, so as to avoid the adverse consequences of treatment alone. The use of the above medications should be in accordance with medical advice.
