In daily life, many women have experienced sudden and severe pain in the lower abdomen, which not only causes great harm to their physical health, but also seriously affects their normal life and work. Therefore, it is particularly important to understand the different causes and prescribe the right medicine. This disease may be abdominal pain during ovulation, abdominal pain during menstruation, abdominal pain caused by ovarian corpus luteum rupture, and many other types.

1. Abdominal pain during ovulation

Abdominal pain caused by ovulation is a physiological pain in women, which usually causes dull pain and bloating. It occurs between two menstrual periods. It won't last too long, maybe half a day to a day. This is normal labor pain.

2. Abdominal pain during menstruation

Dysmenorrhea is a common and frequently occurring gynecological disease. It is an unspeakable suffering for many girls. The pain is simply indescribable! It usually occurs during women's menstrual period or before and after menstruation, with symptoms such as bloating, tingling, and dull pain in the lower abdomen. If the situation is serious, it is best to seek medical attention in time, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.

3. Abdominal pain caused by ovarian corpus luteum rupture

Ovarian corpus luteum rupture is one of the common "acute abdomen" in women. It usually occurs between the 10th and 18th day of the menstrual cycle, and is mainly manifested by sudden pain in the lower abdomen, with varying degrees of pain.

How do I know if I have an ovarian corpus luteum rupture? While you are experiencing abdominal pain, check if you also have a feeling of heaviness and distension in your anus. You may even be bleeding heavily, which can lead to shock and be life-threatening in severe cases.

Abnormal abdominal pain during pregnancy

Abdominal pain in women is also related to pregnancy. When a tubal pregnancy ruptures, it causes pain throughout the abdomen, usually on one side of the lower abdomen. In addition, when a pregnant woman suffers miscarriage or ruptures her abdomen, intra-abdominal bleeding can also cause abdominal pain, which manifests as dull pain or bloating in the lower abdomen. The degree of pain is related to the amount and speed of bleeding.

5. Abdominal pain caused by mental illness

Many people will experience this situation. When they know they are going to face something worrying or scary, they will experience unbearable abdominal pain. This is what we often call "wanting to go to the toilet when I'm nervous." This is a psychological illness that indirectly causes physical discomfort and can be solved through psychotherapy.

6. Abdominal pain caused by acute gastroenteritis

Acute gastroenteritis is a common disease with abdominal pain. Improper diet and eating unclean food can cause gastrointestinal discomfort, which is usually manifested as sudden tenderness around the upper abdomen, gurgling stomach and intestines, and accompanied by vomiting and diarrhea. Therefore, it is important to develop healthy eating habits in daily life.

7. Abdominal pain of acute appendicitis

The symptoms of acute appendicitis are similar to those of acute gastroenteritis, both of which include dull pain in the upper abdomen, nausea, and vomiting.

The pain of acute appendicitis is usually located in the right lower abdomen, the position is uncertain, and there is no diarrhea. The pain of acute gastroenteritis is fixed around the navel and is accompanied by severe diarrhea.
