What is the cause of dysmenorrhea and vomiting?

Increased levels of prostaglandins in the endometrium and blood are the main mechanism causing dysmenorrhea. A large amount of prostaglandins have an excitatory effect on the uterus, which can cause strong muscle contractions, leading to uterine ischemia and hypoxia and causing severe pain. Similarly, a large amount of prostaglandins entering the blood circulation can cause gastrointestinal muscle contraction, so women with dysmenorrhea may also experience gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain.

What should I pay attention to when I have dysmenorrhea and vomiting?

1. When you have dysmenorrhea and vomiting, you should be careful not to eat foods that are too fresh or too salty. These foods can cause flatulence and slow gastrointestinal motility, which can increase nausea and vomiting. You should eat more vegetables, fruits, chicken, fish, etc., and try to eat small meals frequently.

2. Do not eat foods containing caffeine when you have dysmenorrhea and vomiting. The caffeine contained in coffee, tea, and chocolate will make your nerves tense, and the oil in coffee will stimulate the gastrointestinal tract and make nausea and vomiting worse.
