Why does a woman have pain in the lower left abdomen?

I believe that many female friends will experience pain in the lower left abdomen in life, but it is only fleeting, so many people will not pay attention to it. But in fact, this is a very bad habit, because such a reaction will only occur when there is a problem in certain parts of the body. So in daily life, once there is a minor problem with your body, you must pay attention to it. Let’s talk about what is the situation when women have pain in the lower left abdomen.

1. Menstrual pain is a common physiological phenomenon in women. When menstruation comes, there will be varying degrees of lower abdominal pain, sometimes even accompanied by symptoms such as bloating, chills, diarrhea, back pain, etc.

When women experience this kind of physiological menstrual pain, it is recommended that they go to the obstetrics and gynecology department for examination first. If the possibility of gynecological diseases is ruled out, there is no need to worry. You can apply hot compresses or take painkillers to relieve the pain.

It is worth noting that if you experience menstrual cramps that are different from the past, you should not take it lightly. You should see a doctor for examination and record when the menstrual cramps started, where the cramps were, how long they lasted, etc.

2. Dull pain in the left lower abdomen caused by acute inflammation: including acute endometritis, acute salpingo-oophoritis, pelvic peritonitis and acute pelvic cellulitis. It is also seen in sexually transmitted diseases such as gonorrhea. This type of sexually transmitted disease includes gonococcal infection and chlamydia infection, which often recur and can cause fallopian tube pyosalpinx in severe cases.

3. Non-inflammatory dull pain in the left lower abdomen: Common causes include ectopic pregnancy, ovarian tumor pedicle torsion and rupture.

4. Acute dull pain in the left lower abdomen caused by other reasons: Acute dull pain in the left lower abdomen may occur when uterine perforation occurs during artificial abortion or IUD insertion. Ovarian endometrial cysts (chocolate cysts) may grow larger and rupture during menstruation, and the cyst contents may irritate the peritoneum and cause severe abdominal pain.

I believe that now you have a certain understanding of the knowledge about lower left abdominal pain in women. If you encounter these problems again in the future, you must pay attention to them so that your body can get better. If you don’t care about your body, no one will care about you. Only when you take good care of yourself can you love others.
