What are the symptoms of uterine cold dysmenorrhea?

The fragility of the human body is very intuitive. For example, when the daily living habits are bad or the diet is not appropriate, it will bury a lot of health risks. Over time, various discomforts or abnormal reactions will follow. For women, if they do not pay attention to the maintenance of the uterus and let the uterus get cold, they will also have uterine cold problems. This will have a great impact on their own health. So what are the symptoms of uterine cold dysmenorrhea?

Gonghan, as the name suggests, means cold uterus. There is a saying that "nine out of ten women suffer from cold". Among women who suffer from dysmenorrhea, most of them are related to cold. The main manifestations of dysmenorrhea due to uterine cold are obvious or severe dysmenorrhea, cold and painful abdomen, which is relieved by pressing and heating; many or large blood clots, and the pain is relieved after the blood clots are discharged; sore waist and cold waist, and a feeling of emptiness in the lower back; delayed or amenorrhea, dark color, small amount of menstruation or poor menstruation; fear of cold limbs and wind, and cold limbs; thirst without desire to drink or wanting to urinate soon after drinking water, frequent urination at night, etc.

Everyone can understand what uterine cold means. In fact, it means that the uterus is very cold, like there is air conditioning. Let’s make a more in-depth metaphor and compare the uterus to a refrigerator, the blood to water, and the endometrium to ice. When water encounters cold air in the refrigerator, it forms ice cubes. When the blood in the endometrium encounters cold air, it will flow slowly and form blood stasis.

The blood stasis in the endometrium accumulates more and more and forms blood clots. In severe cases, the blood clots will cause the endometrium to thicken, or the thickened endometrium will develop into the uterus, turning into endometriosis. This is why many women experience blood clots during their menstrual period. This is also what Chinese medicine calls qi stagnation and blood stasis. In addition, qi stagnation and blood stasis can also delay menstruation or cause amenorrhea.

If the circulation is blocked, there will be pain; if the circulation is unobstructed, there will be no pain. When the uterus is exposed to cold, the cold air acts on the blood vessels to make them contract and narrow, and the cold air acts on the blood to slow down the blood flow. Under the dual effects, the circulation of Qi and blood is blocked, which will cause pain. This is just as mentioned above, when Qi and blood do not flow smoothly (Qi stagnation and blood stasis), there will be pain. After the blood clots are discharged, dysmenorrhea will be relieved, or when you have dysmenorrhea, you can apply a hot water bag to your abdomen (heat can make Qi and blood flow better), which will also relieve dysmenorrhea. This is called no pain if the circulation is unobstructed.

The above introduction about the symptoms of uterine cold and dysmenorrhea is very clear. Every female friend needs to be responsible for her own health, and when she feels unwell, she should take some corresponding measures to regulate and nourish her body. If the body is healthy, the uterus will not be easily harmed, and naturally it will not affect fertility.
