The causes of abdominal distension in women

I believe many women have faced the problem of abnormal belly. The causes of abnormal lower abdomen are also quite complicated, so the symptoms of abnormal lower abdomen may be different for each woman. Some women feel the symptom of lower abdomen for the longest time, while some women feel the symptom of lower abdomen being bloated. So what are the causes of women's bloating?

Cause of lower abdominal pain: Acute pelvic inflammatory disease

Surface symptoms: abdominal distension and pain, fever, increased vaginal discharge, and even chills, high fever, headache, and loss of appetite.

Measurement criteria: The main symptoms are lower abdominal distension and pain. If an abscess is formed, there may be a lower abdominal mass and local compression and irritation symptoms, such as bladder irritation symptoms and rectal irritation symptoms, which are persistent.

Lower abdominal pain reason 2: dysmenorrhea

Surface symptoms: lower abdominal pain, mental tension, depression, fear, and emotional instability.

Measurement criteria: whether there is vomiting or fainting during menstruation, whether the woman can continue to work, and whether she needs to rest in bed. When the lower abdominal distension and pain are severe, the patient will turn pale, sweat, have cold hands and feet, feel nauseous, vomit, and even faint and collapse. Therefore, long-term dysmenorrhea cannot be ignored, especially for women of childbearing age, even a little dysmenorrhea may affect fertility and cause infertility.

Lower abdominal pain reason three: ectopic pregnancy

Surface symptoms: tearing pain on one side of the lower abdomen accompanied by nausea, urge to defecate, and a feeling of falling;

Criteria: Sudden lower abdominal pain, 6-8 weeks of amenorrhea and history of irregular vaginal bleeding. Ectopic pregnancy refers to pregnancy outside the uterus, especially fallopian tube pregnancy which accounts for more than 95%. Ectopic pregnancy is one of the common acute abdominal diseases in obstetrics and gynecology, which causes great pain to women of childbearing age. If not diagnosed in time and actively rescued, it can be life-threatening.

It is mainly caused by chronic salpingitis which can lead to partial adhesion or stenosis of the tubal lumen; hypoplastic or dysfunctional fallopian tubes; contraceptive failure due to downward movement or position change of the intrauterine contraceptive device; and tumor compression around the fallopian tubes. Ectopic pregnancy can be prevented. The most important thing to do for lower abdominal distension and pain is to pay attention to personal hygiene (sexual hygiene) and reduce gynecological inflammation. If you have fallopian tube inflammation, you must treat it thoroughly. Those who have an intrauterine contraceptive device should have regular check-ups; if they have a history of amenorrhea or lower abdominal pain, they should not take hemostatic drugs indiscriminately and should seek medical attention promptly.
