What is the cause of low menstrual flow and abdominal distension and pain?

Menstruation is the best time to show whether a woman has gynecological diseases. Once menstruation is abnormal or painful, it means that the body is unwell. Many women have experienced symptoms such as scanty menstruation and lower abdominal distension and pain, which often make many women particularly nervous during each monthly menstrual cycle, and even have a sense of fear. Let's understand what causes scant menstruation and lower abdominal distension and pain.

What is the cause of low menstrual flow and abdominal distension and pain?

1. Many factors such as ovarian hypoplasia, mental factors, systemic diseases or long-term use of hormonal contraceptives inhibit the normal function of the ovaries, causing the level of hormone secretion from the ovaries to decrease or be insufficient, leading to insufficient endometrial hyperplasia and a thin endometrium, resulting in less bleeding during shedding, and less menstrual flow.

2. Certain gynecological diseases: causing severe endometrial damage, destroying part or all of the endometrium and leading to scanty menstruation or even amenorrhea.

3. Repeated rough curettage, artificial abortion, etc., due to mechanical damage, the endometrium cannot be repaired and regenerated, which may cause scanty menstruation or even amenorrhea.

Abdominal pain during menstruation is dysmenorrhea. Dysmenorrhea means that the pain during menstruation affects normal activities and requires drug treatment. Cyclic menstrual pain is common and occurs during most menstrual cycles. The pain is often cramping and may be accompanied by lower back pain, nausea, vomiting, headache, or diarrhea.

The above is an introduction to what causes scanty menstrual flow and lower abdominal distension and pain. When such symptoms occur, you must not blindly take medication just because you are anxious to relieve them. You must go to a regular specialist hospital for examination and treatment in time. In addition, you must pay attention to your personal physiological hygiene and maintain a happy mood. At the same time, you should eat less raw, cold and irritating foods.
