What causes right abdominal pain in women?

Because women are responsible for taking care of the family and reproducing offspring, they cannot neglect their physical and reproductive health. Once there is any problem with the body, you must check it in time to know the cause. In life, we always encounter some women who have right abdominal pain. At this time, many women want to ask what is going on when women have right abdominal pain?

1. Pain caused by inflammation: It is more common in adnexitis and pelvic inflammatory disease, and often occurs in women of childbearing age. The pain is on one or both sides, accompanied by increased vaginal discharge. Chronic cases often present with dull pain, back pain or a feeling of heaviness; acute cases often present with abdominal pain that refuses to be pressed, accompanied by fever.

2. Pain caused by the menstrual cycle: Lower abdominal pain and general discomfort experienced by women during menstruation are mostly physiological phenomena. If the pain is severe, it is dysmenorrhea. Most cases of dysmenorrhea during adolescence are primary dysmenorrhea, which can heal itself; however, dysmenorrhea that occurs after menstruation is mostly caused by certain diseases, so you should seek medical attention early and do not use painkillers to solve the problem.

3. Abdominal pain caused by certain gynecological diseases: For example, endometriosis often forms lumps on the ovaries, uterus, and rectum, which can aggravate abdominal pain before and during menstruation. Pain is also one of its characteristics. For example, pelvic bleeding or blood stasis can lead to pelvic pain, which often manifests itself in the base of one thigh.

4. Abdominal pain caused by ovulation: During the ovulation period, there is a feeling of distension and pain in the lower abdomen, which is caused by the rupture of the follicle. Generally speaking, this pain does not affect health and has no adverse consequences. However, in a very small number of people, due to large rupture of the ovarian follicle during ovulation, small blood vessels are damaged, causing ovarian rupture and intra-abdominal bleeding, forming a gynecological emergency that requires medical treatment.

5. Abdominal pain caused by physiological deformities: Common ones include hymen occlusion and vaginal diaphragm. Symptoms include abdominal pain during the menstrual cycle and obstruction of menstrual blood discharge during adolescence. The pain is closely related to the menstrual cycle and occurs cyclically, requiring surgical correction.

6. Abdominal pain caused by tumors: Abdominal pain, bloating, back pain and a feeling of falling caused by tumors are generally persistent. If the tumor twists, ruptures, or bleeds, sudden abdominal pain often occurs. This is the "self-exposure" of the tumor and usually requires immediate surgical treatment.

The above article introduces the causes of right abdominal pain in some women. I hope it can be really helpful to everyone. No matter what disease it is, we need to understand the cause, so that we can find a treatment method in time according to the cause. In order to reduce the occurrence of diseases in our lives, we must study hard.
