Several common misunderstandings in the treatment of dysmenorrhea

Dysmenorrhea is also a common menstrual abnormality. In the long-term treatment of dysmenorrhea, our gynecologists have also found that many patients have some misunderstandings. These misunderstandings not only affect the treatment effect of dysmenorrhea , but also have many adverse effects on the patient's physical and mental health.

Myth 1: Taking medicine to relieve dysmenorrhea

Some women do not know the cause of their dysmenorrhea and simply rely on painkillers to relieve the problem. In fact, this is the most common misunderstanding in the treatment of dysmenorrhea. Because the causes of female dysmenorrhea are divided into primary dysmenorrhea and secondary dysmenorrhea, the solutions to dysmenorrhea are different according to the different causes. Abuse of drugs may aggravate dysmenorrhea or create a kind of dependence.

Myth 2: Dysmenorrhea will heal automatically

If women's dysmenorrhea does not have organic lesions, most people may recover automatically. However, if women have organic lesions, they need to go to the hospital for examination in time to find out the cause of dysmenorrhea to avoid delaying the treatment of dysmenorrhea and causing more serious complications.

Myth 3: Massage can treat dysmenorrhea

Women should never use massage to treat dysmenorrhea. Doctors point out that women should not have intense massage during menstruation, because excessive massage can easily stimulate the endometrium and even aggravate bleeding.

Myth 4: Heat therapy for dysmenorrhea

Many women hold a hot water bottle when they have dysmenorrhea. In fact, warm therapy for dysmenorrhea is not suitable for everyone, because our normal physical constitution is divided into deficiency, excess, cold and heat. Warm therapy is effective for deficiency and cold constitution, but it is not suitable for women with other constitutions to use this method to treat dysmenorrhea.

The above are all the common misunderstandings of patients in the treatment of dysmenorrhea discovered by our gynecological experts, which have brought great difficulties to the treatment. Here we hope that female friends can understand the treatment methods of dysmenorrhea and reduce the pain brought to women by dysmenorrhea.
