How can I relieve dysmenorrhea?

Nowadays, gynecological diseases have become a medical problem that cannot be underestimated. There are not many serious gynecological diseases. They are often minor problems caused by many female friends' lack of attention in their daily lives. Today, I will analyze the most common symptom of dysmenorrhea. I hope it can help female friends who have similar symptoms and remember some things to pay attention to during menstruation.

Causes

1. The occurrence of primary dysmenorrhea is mainly related to the increase in endometrial prostaglandin content during menstruation. Elevated PGF2α levels are the main cause of dysmenorrhea. High levels of PGF2α can cause excessive contraction of uterine smooth muscle and vascular spasm, resulting in uterine ischemia and hypoxia and dysmenorrhea.

2. Increase in substances such as vasopressin, endogenous oxytocin and β-endorphin.

3. Mental and neurological factors.

Dysmenorrhea is a common symptom among women. Dysmenorrhea before marriage will disappear naturally as you grow up, especially after marriage and childbirth, and there is no need for treatment. Except in individual cases. However, dysmenorrhea pain that lasts for up to 3 days should be treated. The treatment of primary dysmenorrhea is mainly symptomatic treatment, with analgesia and sedation as the main therapies. In recent years, comprehensive treatments have been adopted, including spiritual counseling, Chinese medicine, Western medicine and acupuncture.

1. General treatment

(1) Pay attention to psychological treatment and eliminate tension and worries.

(2) Get enough rest and sleep, exercise regularly and moderately, and quit smoking.

(3) When the pain is unbearable, supplement with medication.

2. Medication

(1) Commonly used prostaglandin synthase inhibitors include ibuprofen, ketoprofen, meclofenamic acid, diclofenac, etc.

(2) Oral contraceptives are suitable for women with dysmenorrhea who require contraception, with an effectiveness rate of over 90%.

Through the above understanding, I believe that most female friends have already understood some precautions during menstruation. In life, some female friends suffer from pain in the later period due to irregular diet and rest during menstruation when they were young, while others suffer from congenital pain. No matter which one it is, they need to be patient and take care of themselves now. Relieving dysmenorrhea can improve women's quality of life.
