Lower abdominal pain before and after menstruation

Abdominal pain before and after menstruation refers to abdominal pain before menstruation, which is one of the symptoms of dysmenorrhea. Dysmenorrhea refers to the occurrence of lower abdomen or lower back pain, and even pain in the lumbosacral region, during and after menstruation. Each time it occurs with the menstrual cycle, severe cases can be accompanied by nausea and vomiting, cold sweats, cold hands and feet, and even fainting, which affects work and life. At present, it is often divided into two types: primary and secondary. Primary dysmenorrhea refers to those who have no obvious lesions in the reproductive organs, so it is also called functional dysmenorrhea. It is more common in adolescent girls, unmarried and married unfertile. Such dysmenorrhea can be relieved or disappeared after normal delivery. Secondary dysmenorrhea is mostly caused by organic lesions in the reproductive organs. The disease is a common gynecological disease. According to relevant investigations, the incidence of dysmenorrhea is 33.19%.
