What is the cause of menstrual cramps in women?

What’s wrong with women who have less menstruation and dysmenorrhea?

Most of the symptoms of scanty menstruation and dysmenorrhea are caused by endocrine disorders, qi stagnation and blood stasis, uterine adhesions, etc. Menstruation is a physiological cycle unique to women, but many women may experience irregular menstruation due to various reasons, such as abnormal menstrual volume and unstable menstrual cycle, and some women may even experience painful symptoms.

First, endocrine disorders: In fact, for most women, symptoms such as scanty menstruation and dysmenorrhea are mostly caused by endocrine disorders. Many women may suffer from endocrine disorders because of excessive work pressure and mental tension. In addition, staying up late and eating too much spicy food may also cause dysmenorrhea and scanty menstruation due to endocrine disorders.

Second, Qi stagnation and blood stasis: Symptoms of scanty menstruation and dysmenorrhea should also be considered to be caused by Qi stagnation and blood stasis. Qi stagnation and blood stasis is actually a common phenomenon in traditional Chinese medicine, mostly caused by long-term emotional discomfort, usually with a variety of symptoms such as chest and flank distension, irritability, etc. Female friends may also experience abnormal menstruation, manifested as dysmenorrhea, reduced menstrual volume, and blood clots in menstruation. For this, under the guidance of a doctor, targeted treatment can be carried out with drugs that promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis and soothe the liver and regulate qi, such as Chaihu Shugan San, Xuefu Zhuyu Tang, etc.

Third, intrauterine adhesion: If you have scanty menstruation and dysmenorrhea, you can go to the hospital for a gynecological ultrasound to understand the condition of the uterus. It is very likely that there is intrauterine adhesion. This is a pathological change caused by endometrial damage due to various reasons, which leads to uterine cavity occlusion. It will then cause women to have a variety of symptoms such as reduced menstrual volume, amenorrhea, and cyclical abdominal pain.
