When you experience dysmenorrhea, do you know what to do to relieve the pain? Do you know that dysmenorrhea may also be a sign of certain diseases? Then let’s learn about the types of dysmenorrhea and ways to relieve it with the editor. Dysmenorrhea is cyclical lower abdominal pain that occurs during and before and after menstruation. It often occurs before and during menstruation, and occasionally occurs within a few days after menstruation. The lower abdominal pain is cramping and bloating, and may radiate to the lumbar region, inner thighs, and around the anus. It may be accompanied by pale complexion, nausea, vomiting, chills in the whole body or lower abdomen, frequent bowel movements, and collapse may occur when the pain is severe. Dysmenorrhea is divided into primary and secondary. A complete medical history, age of onset, disease progression, nature of the disease, and associated symptoms are helpful in differential diagnosis. The absence of positive signs in gynecological examination is the key to diagnosing primary dysmenorrhea, but there may be no positive signs in the early stages of secondary dysmenorrhea. Ultrasound, hysterosalpingography, and hysteroscopy can help understand the condition of the uterus and its appendages; laparoscopy can directly visualize pelvic lesions and perform biopsies. 1. Primary dysmenorrhea Dysmenorrhea without organic pelvic lesions, also known as functional dysmenorrhea, has three characteristics that are important for diagnosis: 2. Secondary dysmenorrhea Refers to dysmenorrhea caused by organic pelvic lesions. Due to different types of diseases, different manifestations may occur, and adenomyosis or adenomyoma may be present.

Common secondary dysmenorrhea includes: endometriosis, adenomyosis, uterine fibroids, endometrial polyps, uterine cavity adhesions, residual horn of uterus, pelvic inflammation, (acute, chronic), cervical stenosis, imperforate hymen, transverse vaginal septum.
