2. Causes of dysmenorrhea

1. Some women have congenital cervical stenosis. During menstruation, the outflow of menstrual blood will be obstructed and stagnant due to the narrow path, which will cause discomfort and lead to dysmenorrhea.

2. There are also congenital uterine hypoplasia and lack of uterine function, which will cause the uterus to be deprived of oxygen during menstruation, and insufficient blood volume will also cause dysmenorrhea.

3. Abnormal position of the uterus can also hinder the outflow of menstrual blood, which is also one of the causes of dysmenorrhea.

4. During menstruation, some people's nerves are overly tense and they will react strongly to pain.

5. Studies have not shown that dysmenorrhea can be inherited, but the degree of dysmenorrhea a daughter experiences is still related to genetics.

6. Dysmenorrhea occurs when a woman's endocrine system is out of balance, mainly because the level of progesterone in the body increases during menstruation.
