Causes of Dysmenorrhea:

Dysmenorrhea is caused by a variety of complex factors. Dysmenorrhea caused by non-organic diseases does not have a clear cause that can be solved in a targeted manner.

The main reasons can be seen in the following:

1. 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.

2. Psychological and neurological factors: Some women are overly sensitive to pain.

3. Cervical stenosis mainly causes obstruction of menstrual outflow, causing dysmenorrhea.

4. Uterine hypoplasia. Poor uterine development is prone to abnormal blood supply, causing uterine ischemia and hypoxia, leading to dysmenorrhea.

5. Genetic factors: A daughter's dysmenorrhea is related to her mother's dysmenorrhea.

6. Endocrine factors: Abdominal pain during menstruation is related to the increase of progesterone in the luteal phase.

Diet and daily life suggestions:

1. Keep warm during menstruation, avoid spicy and cold foods, and avoid abdominal pain.

2. Avoid caffeine intake, reduce tension and keep a good mood.

3. If you have severe dysmenorrhea, it is recommended to go to the hospital for treatment.
