What should I do if I often have urinary urgency and unbearable pain in the lower abdomen during menstruation?

What should I do if I have dysmenorrhea and often have the urge to urinate?

Dysmenorrhea and frequent urinary urgency in the lower abdomen are normal physiological reactions, but may also be due to pathological reasons, such as improper diet, urinary tract infection, etc., which can generally be treated with hot compresses, enhanced diet, oral medications, etc.

1. Normal physiological reaction:

It may be that during menstruation, the level of prostaglandins in women's bodies increases, stimulating uterine contraction and stomach, causing dysmenorrhea discomfort. During menstruation, pelvic congestion worsens, stimulating the bladder and causing frequent urination. This phenomenon is normal and does not require special treatment. Just pay attention to rest.

2. Improper diet:

If you often eat spicy, greasy, or cold foods during menstruation, such as chili peppers, fried chicken, ice cream, etc., which leads to excessive bleeding, aggravated dysmenorrhea, and is accompanied by increased urine, you can use a hot water bottle or hot towel to relieve abdominal discomfort.

3. Urinary tract infection:

Urinary tract infection is a disease caused by certain factors that lead to the rise of pathogens and the breakthrough of the body's defenses. Usually, failure to pay attention to local hygiene of the urethra will aggravate the inflammation and cause patients to have symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and pain when urinating. It can be treated with drugs such as levofloxacin hydrochloride capsules, norfloxacin capsules, and ciprofloxacin hydrochloride tablets.

In addition to the common causes mentioned above, it may also be caused by pelvic inflammatory disease, bladder stones, endometriosis, etc. If you have other discomforts, you should go to the hospital in time.
