Why do I have severe back pain before my period?

It is normal to experience breast tenderness, lack of energy, lower back pain, etc. before your period, so don't worry too much. If the lower back pain is severe, it may be due to catching a cold because you didn't pay attention to keeping warm. Although menstruation comes every month, girls still need to pay more attention, because girls during their menstrual period are very weak, and they need to pay more attention to their lifestyle and diet.

[Dietary adjustments can effectively relieve women’s menstrual back pain symptoms]

1. Keep bowel movements smooth: Because constipation can induce dysmenorrhea and increase pain, you should eat more honey, bananas, celery, sweet potatoes, etc.

2. Avoid severe cold stimulation: such as swimming, cold water baths, going into paddy fields, etc. If you are exposed to sudden and excessive cold stimulation during menstruation, it may cause insufficient menstrual blood or dysmenorrhea.

3. Maintain a happy spirit: avoid mental stimulation and mood swings. During menstruation, pay attention to arranging your work and rest time reasonably, avoid strenuous exercise and physical labor, and combine work and rest.

4. Avoid all raw and cold foods: they will stimulate the contraction of the uterus and fallopian tubes, thereby inducing or aggravating dysmenorrhea. Avoid indigestible and irritating foods, such as chili peppers, raw onions, raw garlic, pepper, strong liquor, etc.

Warm reminder: Women should undergo regular gynecological examinations to detect some gynecological diseases in time. Some reproductive organ diseases may have no symptoms or mild symptoms in the early stages. For example, about 30% of adenomyosis has no clinical symptoms; some congenital reproductive organ malformations may also have no symptoms in the early stages. In addition, some people may have some symptoms but are embarrassed to go for a check-up, which may delay treatment and lead to serious consequences.
