Why do I feel pain in my lower abdomen on the right side?

Many women experience some physical discomfort before their period, the most common of which are lower abdominal distension, dizziness, weakness, etc. However, if in addition to lower abdominal soreness during menstruation, you also experience lower abdominal soreness on the right side in daily life, then this is an abnormal phenomenon. Therefore, we must first find out the cause of lower abdominal acid before treating it. Let’s briefly describe the causes of lower abdominal acid.

Lower abdominal acid before and after menstruation may be a physiological reaction, which may be caused by uterine muscle contraction or dysmenorrhea. It usually occurs with the menstrual cycle and the symptoms will gradually disappear after the menstruation ends. It may also be caused by gynecological inflammation.

1. Chronic inflammation of genitals

Lower abdominal distension caused by genital inflammation is more common in married women. Patients often experience lumbar pain, lower abdominal pain, etc., which are especially aggravated after sexual intercourse and during menstruation, and are also accompanied by increased leucorrhea. This situation is generally caused by chronic cervicitis, but if lower abdominal distension, pain, menstrual disorders, and fatigue occur for a long time, it is most likely caused by chronic pelvic inflammatory disease.

2. Acute inflammation

Some acute attacks of inflammation can also cause lower abdominal distension, such as acute endometritis, acute salpingo-oophoritis, pelvic peritonitis and acute pelvic cellulitis. There are also some sexually transmitted diseases that can cause lower abdominal distension, such as gonococcal infection and chlamydia infection.

3. Other reasons

Frequent induced abortions and uterine perforation during IUD insertion can also cause lower abdominal distension, usually manifesting as acute dull pain in the left lower abdomen. Ovarian endometrial cysts (chocolate cysts) can also cause bloating.

The above three reasons can cause lower abdominal acid on the right side, all of which are caused by some diseases. It is recommended that patients should go to the hospital for detailed examinations as much as possible, and then receive symptomatic treatment as much as possible. Women are very susceptible to some gynecological diseases, so in daily life, especially during sexual life, they must pay attention to personal hygiene and the hygiene of their partner.
