What to do if a woman has dull pain on the left side of her lower abdomen

Because women do not pay attention to their bodies, many situations often occur. The most common one is various situations caused by gynecological diseases. Some women do not pay attention to their living habits and often experience lower abdominal pain. Let's take a look at what women should do if they have a dull pain on the left side of their lower abdomen?

1) Women experience pain on the left side of their lower abdomen during their monthly menstrual period, and also experience mild pain before their periods.

Endometriosis - cells in the uterus grow outside the uterus where they don't belong, such as on the outside of the fallopian tubes, ovaries, or bladder. At the end of the period, these cells also bleed lightly, causing 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. 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 at the time of premenstrual pain.

If you feel that your lower abdomen is soft and thin, please go to the hospital to check whether you have endometriosis and then have an intrauterine or ultrasound examination of your lower abdomen. If endometriosis is mild, it can be cured by taking medicine. If the situation is more serious or the patient is preparing to have a child, an endoscopic surgery (i.e. laparotomy) may be required. The doctor will use an endoscope with a laser to remove scar tissue and endometrial hyperplasia. The sooner the treatment is received, the faster the recovery will be.

2) Pain on the left side of the lower abdomen during activity in women Ovarian cyst - An ovarian cyst is a lump filled with fluid in the uterus. Less than 5% of people with ovarian cysts will develop cancer. All ovarian cysts are functional cysts, which means that the developing egg may be surrounded by fluid in the cyst, causing the ovary to swell and become painful. Ovarian cysts can grow over time to the point where they become painful when you exercise or stand up after sitting still. At this time, the condition has become more serious. Because the accumulated fluid in the cyst causes the ovary to sag due to gravity, you will feel a sense of heaviness and pain when you exercise.

Gynecologists can understand the condition and determine whether there is an ovarian cyst by palpating the lower abdomen. If an ultrasound examination reveals an ovarian cyst and it appears to be cancerous or is too large, your doctor will recommend surgery to remove it.

What should a woman do if she has a dull pain on the left side of her lower abdomen? The above is some introduction to this situation. I wonder if you know about it. If such a situation occurs, you must go to the hospital for examination in time to see if it is caused by ovarian cysts, and then actively take treatment.
