Any periodic lower abdominal pain, pain in the lumbar region, or even severe pain and fainting during or before and after menstruation is called "dysmenorrhea." Also known as "menstrual abdominal pain". Western medicine divides dysmenorrhea into primary dysmenorrhea and secondary dysmenorrhea. The former is also called functional dysmenorrhea, which refers to those with no obvious organic lesions in the genitals; the latter is mostly secondary to certain organic lesions of the reproductive organs, such as pelvic endometriosis, adenomyosis, chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, gynecological tumors, cervical adhesion stenosis, etc. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the occurrence of this disease is closely related to the periodic physiological changes of Chong, Ren and Baogong. The main pathogenesis is the internal lurking of evil qi or the deficiency of essence and blood. Moreover, the physiological changes of qi and blood in the Chong and Ren meridians before and after menstruation are rapid, which leads to poor circulation of qi and blood in the uterus, "pain if it is blocked"; or the uterus is not nourished, "pain if it is not nourished", thus causing dysmenorrhea.
