Married women with dysmenorrhea should be alert to reproductive system diseases

Many female friends are not very concerned about the cause of dysmenorrhea, and most of them just endure it. Married women often suffer from secondary dysmenorrhea. Gynecologists remind married women to be careful of reproductive system diseases when they suffer from dysmenorrhea. Let's talk about the factors that cause secondary dysmenorrhea .

The main factors causing secondary dysmenorrhea are:

1. Dysmenorrhea caused by endometriosis and adenomyosis. Dysmenorrhea is a common and prominent symptom of endometriosis and adenomyosis. Patients used to have no pain during menstruation, but dysmenorrhea began to occur at a certain period, which can occur before, during and after menstruation. The pain often worsens with the menstrual cycle, and severe cases are unbearable and require bed rest or pain medication.

The peak incidence of endometriosis is between 30 and 40 years old, while adenomyosis occurs around 40 to 50 years old. Before menstruation, due to the continuous increase in estrogen levels, the ectopic endometrium proliferates and swells. If it is affected by progesterone, it will bleed, stimulate local tissues, and cause pain. If it is adenomyosis (intrinsic endometriosis), it can also cause uterine muscle contraction, and dysmenorrhea is bound to be more significant. If there is no bleeding in the ectopic tissue, the dysmenorrhea may be caused by vascular congestion. After menstruation, the ectopic endometrium gradually shrinks and dysmenorrhea disappears. In addition, many inflammatory processes can be found in pelvic endometriosis. It may be due to the local inflammatory process accompanied by active peritoneal lesions, which may produce prostaglandins, kinins and other peptide substances that cause pain or tenderness. Clinically, there are also people with significant endometriosis but no dysmenorrhea, accounting for about 25%.

2. Pelvic infection causes dysmenorrhea. Pelvic infection is also one of the common factors causing secondary dysmenorrhea. Infection after childbirth or abortion, infection after gynecological surgery, and unclean menstrual hygiene can cause pathogens to invade and lead to inflammation of the internal reproductive organs and surrounding connective tissues and pelvic peritoneum. Once a pelvic infection occurs, scar adhesions formed by chronic inflammation and pelvic congestion can cause lower abdominal distension, pain, and lumbar pain, which often worsens after fatigue, sexual intercourse, and before and after menstruation.

The above is an introduction to the factors that cause secondary dysmenorrhea. I hope it can attract the attention of married women. If you suffer from dysmenorrhea, it is best to go to a regular hospital for diagnosis and treatment to find out the cause and recover as soon as possible.
