How to treat dysmenorrhea in a 16-year-old girl

There is no such thing as an effective treatment for dysmenorrhea in a 16-year-old girl. Dysmenorrhea in a 16-year-old girl is considered to be caused by improper diet, cold abdomen, uterine hypoplasia, pelvic inflammatory disease, endometriosis and other reasons. It can be improved by strengthening daily care, using drugs, surgery and other methods. If you have any discomfort, it is recommended to seek medical attention in time.

1. Improper diet:

If a 16-year-old girl eats a lot of cold foods such as ice cream and iced watermelon during menstruation, it is easy to irritate the body and cause dysmenorrhea. At this time, the diet structure should be adjusted in time, and the principle of light and low digestion diet should be followed.

2. Cold abdomen:

If a 16-year-old girl does not pay attention to keeping her abdomen warm, it may cause the abdomen to catch cold, which may affect blood circulation and cause dysmenorrhea. At this time, you can wrap a hot water bottle with a towel and apply heat to the lower abdomen for 3 to 5 minutes each time, and apply heat every 30 to 40 minutes. This can improve the condition.

3. Uterine hypoplasia:

If a 16-year-old girl has this disease, it will lead to an imbalance in the proportion of uterine muscle and fibrous tissue, and will also produce uncoordinated contractions, causing dysmenorrhea. Generally, it can be treated by surgical methods such as hysterectomy and endometrial transplantation under the operation of a doctor. You need to stay in bed and rest for two days after the operation. You must not be overactive to avoid traction on the wound and prolong the recovery period.

4. Pelvic inflammatory disease:

If pelvic inflammatory disease occurs, the constant stimulation of inflammation will lead to pelvic congestion, which will cause lower abdominal distension and pain during menstruation. You can follow the doctor's advice to take antibiotics such as amoxicillin capsules, cefixime granules, and cefuroxime axetil granules with warm water at 35-38℃.

5. Endometriosis

This disease causes the endometrium to grow outside the uterine cavity and myometrium, usually causing secondary dysmenorrhea, which gradually worsens. You can follow the doctor's advice to use drugs such as dexamethasone acetate tablets, progesterone capsules, and medroxyprogesterone acetate tablets to improve the condition. During the medication period, you need to follow the principle of a light and easily digestible diet to avoid reducing the efficacy of the drug.

A 16-year-old girl who experiences dysmenorrhea should exercise and maintain a good mood. She should also maintain a regular schedule and avoid staying up late or overworking.
