Why do I have lower abdominal pain before my period?

Many girls will experience lower abdominal pain before menstruation. In fact, there are different types of lower abdominal pain, and the symptoms will also be different, so the treatment methods required are also different. If a woman has lower abdominal pain for a long time before her period, she must not delay in finding out the cause in time. Here are some causes of lower abdominal pain.

1. Severe lower abdominal pain during menstruation every month, and mild pain before menstruation.

Initial diagnosis: Endometriosis. Let me break it down: Cells in the uterus gradually grow to places outside the uterus where they don't belong, such as the fallopian tubes, ovaries, and outside the bladder. At the end of the period, these cells will also bleed a small amount.

They also cause inflammation and damage to the areas they extend to. Our bodies automatically create scar tissue to surround these cells and stop this destructive effect. The production of scar tissue can cause lower abdominal pain and reduce our fertility.

Main symptoms: At first, the patient feels the abdominal fullness that is common before menstruation, followed by lower abdominal pain similar to that before menstruation, but not before menstruation.

2. The lower abdomen is cramping and painful, accompanied by dizziness, abdominal distension, persistent diarrhea or constipation.

Preliminary diagnosis: Acute enteritis. Let me explain: Dysfunction of the large intestine leads to extreme sensitivity of nerves and muscles. 20% of the population suffers from irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), 65% of whom are women.

Main symptoms: Bathing can effectively eliminate pain, dizziness, bloating, persistent diarrhea or constipation.

3. Pain in the middle of the lower abdomen, discomfort during urination, and frequent urination.

Initial diagnosis: Interstitial cystitis (IC) Here's the breakdown: Your urinary tract is in an inflammatory state that causes your bladder to swell.

Main symptoms: Pain near the pubic bone, which worsens when trying to urinate; frequent urination (at least once an hour during the day and multiple times at night), with sharp pain.

Women must pay enough attention to their bodies in life, because their physical health is very important for women. If they have long-term lower abdominal pain, they must go to a regular hospital for timely treatment. Women should also develop good eating habits, especially not eating cold food before menstruation.
