I can't sleep at night because of menstrual cramps

Insomnia due to dysmenorrhea pain at night may be a change in the condition caused by various pathogenic factors such as primary dysmenorrhea, pelvic inflammatory disease, endometriosis, etc., and needs to be treated according to the specific cause.

1. Primary dysmenorrhea: If a female patient has primary dysmenorrhea, the level of prostaglandins in the body will increase significantly, which may cause dysmenorrhea at night and cause insomnia, and may be accompanied by symptoms such as sexual intercourse pain and back pain. It is necessary to use non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesics such as ibuprofen granules, indomethacin granules, acetaminophen tablets, etc. for symptomatic treatment of pain under the guidance of a doctor.

2. Pelvic inflammatory disease: If a woman has pelvic inflammatory disease during her menstrual period, the local tissue of the lesion will be congested and edematous, which may cause worsening dysmenorrhea at night and insomnia. It is necessary to use antibiotics such as moxifloxacin injection and metronidazole injection for treatment after a clear diagnosis.

3. Endometriosis: Active endometrium grows in the myometrium, which may cause dysmenorrhea and even insomnia at night. It may be necessary to use drugs such as dydrogesterone tablets, gestrinone capsules, and leuprorelin acetate microparticles for injection for treatment. If necessary, minimally invasive surgery or traditional laparotomy may be required.
