What is the reason for menstrual pain?

The most confusing thing for girls is probably menstruation. Apart from being very inconvenient every time it comes, pain all over the body every time it comes is a very headache problem. However, this situation only occurs in some girls. Some girls do not have such signs in their bodies every time they have menstruation. What is the reason? We all know that every girl's physical fitness is different, but what exactly causes pain all over the body during menstruation? I believe that many girls are often confused by this problem, but they don’t know what causes the pain all over the body during menstruation. We also know that menstruation is very important to us. Let’s learn about it together today.

Gynecological inflammation is a common disease among women, mainly refers to inflammation of the female reproductive organs (vulvitis, vaginitis, cervicitis, metritis, pelvic inflammatory disease, adnexitis, genital tract infection, etc.). Women's reproductive organs generally produce different acute and inflammatory diseases, which are inflammations caused by various pathogens. If inflammation is not treated promptly, it may cause the inflammation to spread and cross-infect various physiological parts, and will cause many complications, which will have a negative impact on the immune function, metabolism and endocrine system, and even cause malignant diseases in some parts. If it is a pregnant woman, it may cause intrauterine infection, birth canal infection and other effects on the newborn baby, leading to miscarriage, premature birth, congenital maldevelopment, intellectual disability and other serious hazards.

Although it is easy to have back pain and other symptoms during menstruation, you should not press it casually, as this will further swell the pelvis and cause excessive menstruation or prolonged menstruation. Precautions during menstrual period

1. It is not suitable to have sexual intercourse: During menstruation, the endometrium of the uterus is shed and the surface is injured. If sexual intercourse occurs, it is easy to introduce bacteria, causing them to go back up and enter the uterus, causing intrauterine infection.

2. Don’t eat too much salt: Too salty food will increase the salt and water retention in the body. Before menstruation, it is easy to have symptoms such as headache, emotional excitement and irritability.

3. Do not drink strong tea or coffee: these drinks contain high levels of caffeine, which can easily stimulate nerves and cardiovascular system, leading to uncomfortable symptoms such as menstrual pain, prolonged menstruation and menorrhagia.

4. It is not suitable to eat cold fruits and vegetables and drink cold drinks: Eating cold foods will reduce the speed of blood circulation, thereby affecting the contraction of the uterus and the discharge of menstruation, resulting in poor menstruation and causing menstrual pain.

5. It is not suitable to take a tub bath or a sitz bath: During menstruation, the cervix is ​​slightly open, and a tub bath or a sitz bath can easily cause waste water to enter the uterine wall and cause inflammation.

6. It is not suitable to wear tight underwear: tight pants with a small waistline will put pressure on some blood vessels, thereby affecting the blood circulation system and causing private part hematoma and edema.

7. Not suitable for singing loudly: During menstruation, there is hematoma in the respiratory mucosa and throat, and singing or speaking loudly can easily cause fatigue of the throat muscles and cause hoarseness.

8. Don’t hit your waist too much: Although it is easy to have back pain during menstruation, you should not hit your waist casually, as this will further swell the pelvis and cause excessive menstruation or prolonged menstruation.

9. It is not suitable to engage in strenuous exercise, such as long jump, high jump, 100-meter race, and football, which will cause or aggravate the general discomfort during menstruation, and even cause menstrual pain and menstrual disorders. Some energy exercises that increase abdominal pressure, such as snatch and barbell, should also be minimized, otherwise it will cause excessive menstruation or prolonged menstruation. In addition, because the cervix is ​​slightly open during menstruation, bacteria can easily invade the uterine cavity, increasing the chance of infection and causing various gynecological inflammations. Therefore, swimming is not suitable during menstruation. It is also not suitable to participate in competitions during the menstrual period to prevent endocrine imbalance and menstrual disorders due to mental stress and anxiety.

10. Not suitable for tooth extraction. Maybe very few dentists will know whether you are menstruating before pulling out your teeth, but you must be aware that you cannot pull out your teeth during your menstrual period! Otherwise, not only will the bleeding increase during tooth extraction, but a fishy smell will also remain in the mouth for a while after tooth extraction, affecting the appetite and causing malnutrition during menstruation. This is because during menstruation, the uterine wall releases more tissue-activating substances, which activate the plasminogen in the blood into free fatty acid lysing enzymes with anti-coagulant effects. At the same time, the number of platelets in the body also decreases, so the body's coagulation ability decreases and the blood circulation time increases.
