Dysmenorrhea is a familiar and unfamiliar term that many female friends have experienced, and it is one of the most common gynecological symptoms. Before and after menstruation or during menstruation, lower abdominal pain, bloating, accompanied by low back pain or other discomfort, seriously affects the quality of life of female friends.
What is the cause of dysmenorrhea?
1. Cold factors
Due to cold or insufficient weather, colds occur, blood stagnation occurs, menstrual blood cannot be discharged, and dysmenorrhea worsens.
2. Physiological factors
Excessive menstrual bleeding leads to blood calcium loss, but the demand for calcium in adolescent women is increasing, resulting in severe calcium deficiency, decreased blood calcium, and pain caused by muscle spasms and contractions of the uterine wall.
3. Dietary factors
Some girls like to eat snacks, and they also eat cold drinks and raw and cold foods such as pears on physiological days, which can easily cause blood stagnation and pain if traditional Chinese medicine cannot explain it. Dysmenorrhea naturally worsens.
4. Fatigue factors
During physiological days, women's physical fitness is not as good as usual, and they need to supplement nutrition and rest. Excessive physical labor can exacerbate bleeding and physical pain.
What to do with dysmenorrhea?
1. Rub your stomach with your hands: Warm both hands and gently rub them in the area where your stomach hurts. Do not use too much force, gently rub them, otherwise the pain will worsen.
2. Using a hot water bottle or hot water bag: Fill the hot water bottle with hot water and heat it in a painful area to relieve symptoms of physical pain. Hot water is effective. Warm water won't do. Additionally, drinking hot water can also alleviate pain.
3. Sugar water: Sugar should be in moderation, not too little. Soak in hot water and drink while it's hot. Don't wait until it's cold before drinking. Sugar has no effect. It can replenish blood and relieve menstrual cramps.
4. Pain relievers: If the above three methods are effective, try not to choose pain relievers. As the saying goes, drugs are three times more toxic, and taking them can lead to drug dependence. It is still possible to take them at least a few times. However, if the above three methods are effective, try not to choose pain relievers.
How to regulate dysmenorrhea?
1. In daily life, it is important to pay attention to a regular lifestyle, avoid staying up late, drinking alcohol, exercising moderately, maintaining balanced nutrition, ensuring sufficient sleep time, improving sleep quality, and maintaining a happy mood. A regular and healthy lifestyle can effectively reduce the probability of physical pain.
2. Eating high calcium foods and chocolate candies can effectively alleviate pain. When the tide is about to come, the body needs a large amount of calcium to alleviate uterine spasms, thereby avoiding menstrual cramps. Chocolate candies can increase blood sugar in the body, thereby relieving the tense nervous system.
