Several common gynecological diseases that can cause dysmenorrhea

The occurrence of dysmenorrhea often brings a lot of inconvenience to women's lives and work. Generally speaking, the causes of dysmenorrhea are related to some bad habits in women's daily life, especially during menstruation, but the possibility of some gynecological diseases as the cause of dysmenorrhea cannot be ignored.

1. Uterine fibroids

If you have uterine fibroids, it may also be the cause of dysmenorrhea, but it is not the main symptom. Submucosal fibroids can cause spasmodic pain during menstruation due to stimulation of uterine contraction. Patients often have menorrhagia, prolonged menstruation or irregular vaginal bleeding. Pelvic examination can reveal that the uterus is enlarged to varying degrees, with a smooth surface or nodular protrusions. In this case, it can be judged as uterine fibroids.

2. Chronic pelvic inflammatory disease

If you have chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, lower abdominal pain is the main symptom, which is similar to dysmenorrhea. During menstruation, due to pelvic congestion or acute inflammation induced by menstruation, abdominal pain may be aggravated. Most patients have a history of infertility and acute pelvic inflammatory disease. Pelvic examination shows that the uterus is mostly posterior, with poor mobility or even completely fixed.

3. Adenomyosis

Dysmenorrhea is one of the typical symptoms of this disease, which is caused by a benign lesion caused by the invasion of the endometrium into the myometrium. There may also be an increase in menstrual volume or a prolonged menstrual period. Gynecological examination shows that the uterus is uniformly enlarged and spherical, with a hard texture, generally about the size of a 2-month pregnancy. Mild tenderness is also one of the common causes of dysmenorrhea.

If these are the causes of dysmenorrhea, then ordinary treatments cannot solve the problem of dysmenorrhea. Therefore, female friends should also regard dysmenorrhea as a sign of some gynecological diseases, carefully analyze the causes of dysmenorrhea, and actively cooperate with treatment.
