What to do about endometriosis pain

In daily life, many female friends cannot avoid the troubles of gynecological diseases. Gynecological diseases often cause us to have symptoms such as abnormal leucorrhea or irregular menstruation, but there are also many gynecological diseases that can cause us to have symptoms such as abdominal pain, especially endometriosis, which is particularly easy to cause many female friends to have symptoms such as abdominal pain. Such symptoms have a relatively large impact on our normal life. Let us understand what to do with the pain of endometriosis?

Endometriosis is a common gynecological disease in women caused by the implantation of endometrial cells in abnormal locations. Endometrial cells should grow in the uterine cavity, but because the uterine cavity is connected to the pelvic cavity through the fallopian tube, endometrial cells can enter the pelvic cavity through the fallopian tube and grow ectopically. There are many theories about the pathogenesis of this disease, among which the endometrial implantation theory is widely accepted. In addition, the occurrence of endometriosis is also related to the body's immune function, genetic factors, and environmental factors.

Clinical manifestations

1. Dysmenorrhea

Dysmenorrhea is the most typical symptom of endometriosis. It can occur before, during, or after your period. In severe stages, the pain is unbearable and increasing the dosage of analgesics may not even be effective. The pain is caused by internal bleeding from endometriosis stimulating local tissue inflammatory response. Endometriosis lesions secrete more prostaglandins, which causes uterine muscle contractions and makes dysmenorrhea more pronounced. After menstruation, bleeding stops and pain is relieved.

2. Abnormal menstruation

It may present as heavy menstruation or irregular menstrual cycles. Most of the menstrual abnormalities are related to the impact of endometriosis on ovarian function. Patients with endometriosis may experience ovarian dysfunction, such as abnormal ovulation.

3. Infertility

Infertility is common in women with endometriosis. Cause: Endometriosis can often cause adhesions around the fallopian tubes, affecting the pickup of oocytes; or ovarian lesions can affect ovulation.

4. Pain during sexual intercourse

Endometriosis in the rectouterine fossa and vaginal rectal septum may cause dyspareunia (deep tenderness) and frequent, painful bowel movements (tenesmus) during menstruation.

5. Others

Bladder irritation symptoms: When endometriosis spreads to the bladder, there will be periodic frequent urination, painful urination, and hematuria. Endometriosis in abdominal wall scars and umbilicus causes periodic local lumps and pain.

What to do about endometriosis pain

Patients with endometriosis should eat more hot foods before menstruation, such as various warm tonic soups, such as brown sugar ginger water, which are essential foods for patients with endometriosis. In addition, various types of beans are very helpful for patients with endometriosis. Beans are rich in estradiol.

2 For people with endometriosis, it is best not to eat raw or cold food, especially ice, and do not eat food directly out of the refrigerator. Eat more foods that replenish qi and blood, such as red dates. People with endometriosis can eat more of them. Whether they are soaked in water or eaten raw, the effect is very good. Red dates can help endometriosis quickly promote qi and blood circulation, which is very helpful in relieving the pain of the endometrium during menstruation.

Note:

Patients with endometriosis should avoid always washing their feet and hair with cold water, because cold water cannot promote blood circulation and will aggravate the pain.

As long as the treatment is timely, the symptoms can be well relieved. Especially women must observe their leucorrhea and menstruation more often.
