Many women experience menstrual cramps during their periods. Some women will choose to take medicine when the pain is severe. Most people choose ibuprofen tablets. So are there any side effects for women taking ibuprofen? How to relieve menstrual pain? Menstrual pain is divided into primary menstrual pain and secondary menstrual pain. Primary dysmenorrhea is "functional dysmenorrhea", which can be simply understood as "intrauterine" dysmenorrhea that does not affect physical and mental health. This kind of dysmenorrhea has normal uterus and B-ultrasound examinations, but it is pain without cause, which is relieved by brown sugar ginger water, painkillers and sleeping. Secondary dysmenorrhea means that there may be no dysmenorrhea at the beginning, but with the development of some diseases, the symptoms of dysmenorrhea become more and more severe. For example, endometriosis, pelvic inflammatory disease, uterine malformations, etc., all begin to cause menstrual pain as you age. In this case, relying solely on painkillers to relieve dysmenorrhea is not only useless, but may also delay the disease. Are there any side effects of taking ibuprofen for women with menstrual pain? Primary dysmenorrhea may be caused by excessive mental stress, habitual long-term sitting, which leads to poor blood circulation in the body, and a preference for eating cold food, which aggravates the symptoms of dysmenorrhea. You can take ibuprofen painkillers appropriately to relieve the pain. Secondary dysmenorrhea is mostly caused by diseases, the most common of which are endometriosis, pelvic inflammatory disease, uterine fibroids, etc. If you blindly take painkillers, it will cover up the disease and even aggravate the existing symptoms and delay treatment. It is best to take less painkillers, go to the hospital for relevant examinations, and treat the symptoms after determining the cause of the disease. It should be noted that ibuprofen tablets can relieve pain. But it is likely to cause gastrointestinal reactions. Long-term consumption is not recommended. Long-term use of ibuprofen painkillers can easily lead to drug dependence and even drug resistance, causing confusion of the autonomic nervous system, polarization, memory loss, insomnia and other adverse effects.
