Abdominal pain during menstruation is clinically referred to as dysmenorrhea, which is categorized into primary and secondary conditions. There is no quick fix for relieving dysmenorrhea due to large individual differences. Usually, symptoms can be relieved by general treatment, medication and surgery.
1. Primary dysmenorrhea: It is mostly caused by cold, nervousness and stress during menstruation. The pain can be relieved by drinking more hot water, using local hot water bags or infrared radiation to warm up the abdomen, and at the same time keeping a relaxed mood and exercising appropriately. If the dysmenorrhea is serious, you can take ibuprofen, compound levonorgestrel and other drugs to relieve pain.
2. Secondary dysmenorrhea: pelvic infection, endometriosis, fibroids, adenomyosis, etc., are all causes of secondary dysmenorrhea in women. For bacterial infections, anti-infective treatments such as amoxicillin and roxithromycin can be taken as prescribed by the doctor; for diseases such as uterine adenomyosis or uterine fibroids, they can be treated by surgical removal of the lesions if necessary.
In addition, pay attention to menstrual care, strengthen the warmth of the abdomen and feet, pay attention to personal hygiene during menstruation. If the pain is severe and symptoms such as pallor, nausea and vomiting, fainting, etc. occur, it is recommended to consult a doctor in time, complete the relevant examinations, and actively deal with it under the guidance of a specialist. The use of the above medications should be in accordance with medical advice.
