What's wrong with the bloated belly?

The lower abdomen is very important for women because it is where the uterus and other reproductive organs are located. If your lower abdomen is bloated, you need to deal with it in time. Because this may indicate that the patient has health problems such as ectopic pregnancy, gynecological tumors, and gynecological inflammation. Next, I will introduce to you the common causes of lower abdominal pain!

1. Non-inflammatory lower abdominal distension

Common causes include ectopic pregnancy, ovarian cyst pedicle torsion and rupture: intra-abdominal bleeding caused by ectopic pregnancy. The pain symptoms vary depending on the amount and speed of bleeding; ovarian cyst pedicle torsion. When the pedicle of an ovarian cyst twists, pain suddenly occurs on one side of the lower abdomen, which is persistent colic, often accompanied by nausea and vomiting. In addition, ovarian cysts may rupture, and the contents of the ruptured cysts may irritate the peritoneum and cause pain.

2. Tumor pain

When gynecological malignancies progress to the late stage, unbearable and intractable pain may occur. Lower abdominal pain is often accompanied by lumbar pain, and the pain often radiates to the lower limbs.

3. Chronic lower abdominal distension

There are many causes, and it is often accompanied by lumbar pain and increased vaginal discharge. It is common in chronic inflammation of the reproductive organs, endometriosis, adenomyosis, pelvic congestion and psychological pelvic pain.

4. Chronic inflammation of the genitals

Women suffer from long-term lumbar and sacral pain and lower abdominal pain, which worsens after sex and during the menstrual cycle. It is often accompanied by increased leucorrhea, which is mostly caused by chronic cervicitis. If you experience long-term lower abdominal distension, pain, and lumbar pain that worsens after fatigue, sex, or before and after the menstrual cycle, and are often accompanied by menstrual cycle disorders and fatigue, it is mostly caused by chronic pelvic inflammation.

5. Dysmenorrhea

There are two types of dysmenorrhea: primary and secondary. Primary pain often occurs in adolescent girls for unclear reasons. It can usually heal itself as you grow older or after getting married and having children. Secondary pain is often caused by endometriosis and adenomyosis.

6. Other reasons

Acute lower abdominal pain may occur when acute lower abdominal distension is caused by artificial abortion or uterine perforation during IUD. Ovarian endometrial cysts (chocolate cysts) may rupture as they grow larger during the menstrual cycle, and the cyst contents may irritate the peritoneum and cause severe abdominal pain.
