Women will experience dysmenorrhea, which is lower abdominal pain and discomfort during menstruation. Dysmenorrhea that occurs in unmarried girls is primary pain, which is related to their physical constitution. It will be relieved after getting married and having children.

Endometriosis is a gynecological disease and is a type of secondary dysmenorrhea, which is characterized by increasingly severe pain without any relief.

2. Swollen bladder and lower abdominal pain

Bladder swelling is a phenomenon of our urethra abnormality. The lower abdominal pain it causes includes pain when urinating, frequent urination, and a compressive pain in the middle of the lower abdomen when urinating.

Swollen bladder and lower abdominal pain are indirect cystitis. Its main symptoms are pain, increased pain when trying to urinate, inability to urinate, frequent urination, feeling like you still want to urinate when you go to the toilet, and sharp pain during sex that affects the normal life of the couple. When these symptoms appear, we must seek timely treatment and carry out anti-inflammatory treatment for a period of time.

3. Lower abdominal pain caused by the digestive tract

Lower abdominal pain caused by the digestive tract is related to indigestion, and indigestion is related to our daily eating habits. Indigestion can cause symptoms such as abdominal pain and bloating. Hepatitis, gastric dysfunction, irritable bowel syndrome with abdominal pain, etc. can cause abnormalities in the digestive tract and cause lower abdominal pain. Lower abdominal pain is caused by eating too much food, overeating, and being stimulated by spicy food, greasy food, and too raw and cold food, which leads to abnormal intestinal motility and symptoms of abdominal distension and pain. If you can't get the symptoms while taking medicine at home, it is recommended to go to the hospital for examination to avoid more serious consequences.
