What causes menstrual back pain?

Many women will experience lower back pain during their menstruation. At this time, they should pay attention to whether it is caused by pelvic inflammatory disease, because pelvic inflammatory disease or retroverted uterus can easily cause lower back pain in women during menstruation.

1. Pelvic inflammatory disease.

Lower back pain during menstruation may be caused by menstrual fever, and lower abdominal pain may be caused by pelvic inflammatory disease.

2. Retroverted uterus.

Lower back pain during menstruation may be caused by a retroverted uterus or other diseases. Therefore, if women have this symptom, it is recommended to go to the hospital for examination in time.

3. Endometriosis.

If your period pain becomes more severe and lasts longer, you may have endometriosis. Therefore, women must pay great attention to it.

4. Endometritis.

Normal menstrual blood is dark red. If the color of menstrual blood is light brown, or the odor changes, and the body temperature rises and lower abdominal pain occurs, you may have endometritis.

4. Urinary tract infection.

From the physiological anatomy of the urethra, the female urethra is short and straight, and the external urethral opening is close to the anus. Coupled with some physiological reasons, women are more likely to develop urinary tract infections than men. This type of urinary tract infection often causes swelling and pain in the lower back. In severe cases, the pain will radiate along the ureter to the perineum. In addition, urinary stones, kidney stones, etc. can also cause low back pain. Therefore, women must pay attention to maintaining the hygiene of the vulva.

6. Abnormal IUD.

Abnormalities of the IUD include the IUD model not matching the uterine cavity, the IUD being too elastic, or the IUD being in an abnormal position. An improperly placed IUD gets lodged in the uterine cavity, irritating the uterine wall and causing reflex lower back pain. In this case, the IUD can be removed and replaced.
