What causes dysmenorrhea?

Women often experience dysmenorrhea during their menstrual period, which can cause women to suffer from diseases during their menstrual period. There are many factors that lead to dysmenorrhea in our lives. Let's take a look at the main causes of dysmenorrhea.

Endometriosis: It is common in middle-aged women aged 30 to 45. It is caused by the endometrium going outside the uterus and "setting up camp". It thickens and bleeds under the influence of ovarian hormones. Since it does not flow out of the body, it stimulates the surrounding tissues, causing uterine muscle contraction or tissue fibrosis, which induces dysmenorrhea.

Uterine adenomyoma: This cause of dysmenorrhea is more common in women over 40 years old, multiparous women, and women who have had multiple abortions and curettage.

Adhesions of the cervix or uterine cavity are also a cause of dysmenorrhea: they are more common in patients with repeated abortions, endometrial tuberculosis, etc.

Reproductive tract malformations: Mechanical obstructions such as excessive anteversion of the uterus and vaginal septum make it difficult for menstrual blood to flow out, causing blood accumulation and inducing dysmenorrhea.

Pelvic inflammation is also related to the cause of dysmenorrhea: persistent pain in the lower abdomen, which may radiate to the waist, sometimes accompanied by a feeling of heaviness in the anus.

The occurrence of dysmenorrhea is closely related to the above-mentioned inducing factors. I think after the brief introduction in the above article, women should know the main inducing factors of dysmenorrhea. I hope that the introduction of the above knowledge can help women better understand the phenomenon of dysmenorrhea.
