What’s wrong with back pain during menstruation?

Back pain during menstruation can be caused by a variety of reasons, including hormone secretion disorders, pelvic congestion and involving pain, and low back diseases.
1. Hormone secretion disorders: the level of estrogen and progesterone secretion decreases during menstruation, leading to autonomic nerve disorders and endocrine disorders in some women, resulting in a series of symptoms of menstrual discomfort, such as low back pain, abdominal pain, headache and so on.
2. Pelvic congestion and referred pain: During menstruation, the increase in pelvic blood flow leads to pelvic congestion, which may lead to abdominal pain, and a small number of women with obvious symptoms may also experience referred pain in the lower back area.
3. Lumbar back disease: some women suffer from lumbar back muscle strain, thoracic spine joint disorder, lumbar intervertebral disc herniation and other diseases, when in the menstrual period, the body function may have a certain decline, which will make the original disease caused by the lumbar back discomfort aggravated.
There may be other reasons for women to experience back pain during menstruation. If the pain persists or worsens, it is recommended to consult a doctor in a timely manner, complete the relevant examinations, identify the cause of the disease under the guidance of a professional doctor, and target the treatment.
