Many people are not very clear about the causes of menstrual pain, so they need to have a good understanding of this type of problem so that when treating it, they can know where to start and relieve women's menstrual pain.

What causes menstrual pain:

1. Cervical stenosis

The main problem is that menstrual outflow is blocked, causing dysmenorrhea.

2. Uterine hypoplasia

Poor uterine development can easily lead to abnormal blood supply, causing uterine ischemia and hypoxia, leading to dysmenorrhea.

3. Abnormal uterine position

If a woman's uterus is extremely retroflexed or anteflexed, it may affect the smooth flow of menstrual blood and cause dysmenorrhea.

4. Psychological and neurological factors

Some women are overly sensitive to pain.

5. Genetic factors.

6. Endocrine factors

Abdominal pain during menstruation is related to the increase in progesterone in the luteal phase.

7. Increased levels of prostaglandins (PG) in the endometrium and menstrual blood

Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) acts on uterine muscle fibers to cause them to contract and cause dysmenorrhea. The prostaglandin content in the endometrial tissue of patients with dysmenorrhea is significantly higher than that of women with normal endometrium.

8. Excessive contraction of the uterus

Although the uterine contraction pressure of patients with dysmenorrhea is basically the same as that of normal women (normal pressure is about 4.9Kpa), the uterine contraction lasts longer and is often difficult to relax completely, so dysmenorrhea occurs due to excessive uterine contraction.

9. Abnormal uterine contractions

Patients with dysmenorrhea often have abnormal uterine contractions, which often lead to ischemia of uterine smooth muscles. Uterine muscle ischemia can cause spasmodic contractions of the uterine muscles, resulting in pain and dysmenorrhea.

The above is a detailed introduction to the causes of menstrual pain. These are the causes of menstrual pain in women. To improve it, we must start with conditioning the body, which will be of great help in improving menstrual pain. However, when improving menstrual pain in women, it must be done for a long time.
