Is waist pain caused by pregnancy or menstruation?

Lower back pain is a very common lumbar symptom, and its most obvious manifestation is soreness and heaviness in the lower back. Many women want to know whether back pain is due to pregnancy or menstruation. In fact, both of these situations may lead to the occurrence of back pain.

1. Is the back pain caused by pregnancy or menstruation?

Both pregnancy and menstruation may cause lower back pain and fatigue, so this is not the main difference between pregnancy and menstruation. The main difference between pregnancy and menstruation is the presence of (+) human chorionic gonadotropin in the blood or urine pregnancy test. If the blood chorionic gonadotropin is greater than 25u/l, it indicates pregnancy. In addition, pregnancy may be accompanied by nausea, vomiting, fatigue, drowsiness, etc., while menstruation may be accompanied by distension and pain in the lower abdomen and even the waist. Nausea may occur when dysmenorrhea is severe.

2. Causes of waist pain

1. Caused by diseases of the spinal bones and joints and surrounding soft tissues. Such as local injuries, bleeding, edema, adhesions and muscle spasms caused by contusions and sprains.

2. Caused by diseases of the spinal cord and spinal nerves. Such as low back pain caused by spinal cord tumors, myelitis, etc.

3. Caused by diseases of internal organs. For example, infection or tumor of the uterus and its appendages can cause lumbar pain, and such patients often have corresponding gynecological symptoms at the same time.

For example, patients with hysteria may also complain of low back pain as their main complaint, but without objective physical signs, or objective examinations and subjective descriptions of the disease cannot be explained by knowledge of physiology, anatomy, and pathology. This low back pain is often a manifestation of hysteria.
