Dysmenorrhea refers to lower abdominal pain, bloating, backache or other discomfort before and after menstruation, which is one of the most common gynecological symptoms. People with severe symptoms may even have their quality of life affected. Dysmenorrhea is divided into primary dysmenorrhea and secondary dysmenorrhea. Primary dysmenorrhea accounts for more than 90% of dysmenorrhea and is caused by excessive prostaglandins in the body, while secondary dysmenorrhea mainly refers to dysmenorrhea caused by organic diseases of the pelvic cavity.
1. Diet: Women who are planning to get pregnant should eat less cold foods, such as crabs, watermelons, pears, grapefruits, mushrooms, fungi, kelp, etc., and eat more warm foods, such as lean meat, longan, red dates, etc. Usually, paying more attention to calcium supplementation can alleviate the symptoms of dysmenorrhea.
2. Life: Pay attention to psychological counseling. Dysmenorrhea is a physiological reaction. Eliminating tension and worry can relieve dysmenorrhea.
3. Drug treatment: Some female friends think that they cannot take medicine before pregnancy, which is actually a misunderstanding. Taking medicine before pregnancy will not affect pregnancy or the quality of the fetus. Prostaglandin synthase inhibitors can be used to reduce or eliminate dysmenorrhea. Drugs approved by the US FDA for the treatment of dysmenorrhea include ibuprofen, 200-400mg, 3-4 times a day, or ketotifen 50mg, three times a day.
4. Exercise conditioning: Strengthen physical exercise: Especially for people with weak constitution, while improving nutrition through diet, they can also do some light exercise, such as walking and practicing yoga. Regular yoga can relieve dysmenorrhea. Some yoga movements are very effective, such as kneeling, sitting on the heels, forehead on the ground, arms stretched to both sides of the body, and you can also try different postures.
5. Hot compress: When female friends suffer from dysmenorrhea, they can use a hot water bottle to apply it to the lower abdomen, which can accelerate blood circulation in the lower abdomen and pelvis and relieve the symptoms of dysmenorrhea.
