What to do if you have lower abdominal pain during menstruation

We know that every woman will have menstruation when she is not in menopause. And once there is no menstruation, it is often a symptom of amenorrhea. However, the menstrual period is often affected by a variety of reasons and factors. As a common disease, patients often have symptoms of dysmenorrhea. Lower abdominal pain during menstruation is common. What should I do if I have lower abdominal pain during menstruation?

As the saying goes: "30% medical treatment, 70% care, and 10% prevention", menstrual care should start from the little things in life. I have summarized a few points that I think are useful, and I hope they can help you: First, do not eat raw or cold food, cold drinks, etc., which will slow down blood circulation, thereby affecting the contraction of the uterus and the discharge of menstrual blood, resulting in adverse discharge of menstrual blood. If you keep in touch with the cold for a long time, you will also experience symptoms such as excessive menstruation and dysmenorrhea, which will seriously affect your health.

Second, in a recent interview with the media, I would like to remind all female friends: Be careful when wiping with paper when urinating or defecating, especially when defecating, try not to wipe forward, as this will bring the contents of the rectum to the vaginal opening. Try to wipe backwards. Also, wipe with clean toilet paper after urinating. When choosing a cleanser, it is best to choose one that is less irritating, milder, and more neutral, such as Fuyangjie.

Third, when the menstrual period is heavy, you must change sanitary napkins frequently, and clean the vulva with a wash solution before going to bed every night. You can choose a mild wash solution with a pH value suitable for the weakly acidic environment of the vulva. Go to bed after washing, which is cool and refreshing and helps you sleep.

Fourth, you must not have sexual intercourse during your menstrual period. You should wait until all the menstrual blood is discharged before having sex. Otherwise, during this special period, your resistance will be weakened, and you are likely to be infected with diseases, or harmful bacteria will directly enter your vagina, with very serious consequences.

Fifth, women often feel back pain and leg swelling during menstruation, and they habitually beat their waists thinking that this can relieve the back pain, but doing so is a mistake. The soreness and swelling in the waist during menstruation is caused by pelvic congestion. At this time, beating the waist will cause more congestion in the pelvis, which will in turn aggravate the soreness and swelling.

To sum up, we know that the problem of lower abdominal pain during menstruation actually requires active attention, and the behavior of beating the waist during menstruation needs to be corrected. Otherwise, it will not be conducive to the further repair and healing of the wound after the endometrium is peeled off. It can also lead to increased bleeding and prolonged menstrual periods.
