What are the causes of dysmenorrhea?

Many female friends have experienced dysmenorrhea , but many patients do not know the causes of dysmenorrhea, which leads to the recurrence of dysmenorrhea. So what are the causes of dysmenorrhea? In response to this issue, we invite experts to introduce several common causes of dysmenorrhea.

Dysmenorrhea refers to pain in the lower abdomen or waist, or even pain in the lumbar region, during and before and after menstruation. It occurs every time during the menstrual cycle. In severe cases, it may be accompanied by nausea and vomiting, cold sweats, cold hands and feet, and even fainting, which affects work and life. At present, it is often divided into primary and secondary types in clinical practice. Primary dysmenorrhea refers to those with no obvious lesions in the reproductive organs, so it is also called functional dysmenorrhea. It is more common in adolescent girls, unmarried people, and married people without children.

The common causes of dysmenorrhea are as follows:

1. Gynecological diseases such as endometriosis, uterine fibroids, pelvic inflammatory disease, adenomyosis, etc. Placing an intrauterine device in the uterus can also easily cause dysmenorrhea.

2. When a girl has her first menstruation, she may suffer from dysmenorrhea due to great psychological pressure, long periods of sitting, poor blood circulation, poor menstrual blood flow, and a preference for cold foods.

3. Uterine hypoplasia Poor uterine development is prone to abnormal blood supply, causing uterine ischemia and hypoxia, which can cause dysmenorrhea

4. Abnormal position of the uterus. If a woman's uterus is extremely retroflexed or anteflexed, it may affect the smooth flow of menstrual blood and cause dysmenorrhea.

5. The content of prostaglandins (PG) in the endometrium and menstrual blood increases. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) acts on the uterine muscle fibers to contract and cause dysmenorrhea. The content of prostaglandins in the endometrial tissue of menstrual patients is significantly higher than that of normal women.

That’s all the knowledge about the causes of dysmenorrhea. Experts recommend going to a regular professional hospital for relevant examinations and treatments to achieve the purpose of treating the disease and relieving dysmenorrhea. Female friends must not be careless so as not to affect future fertility.
