What causes pain in the right lower abdomen during menstruation?

Women have their menstrual period every month, and this is also the time when women's bodies are most likely to have problems. Among them, the most typical phenomenon is the pain in the right lower abdomen of women during menstruation, which causes considerable harm to women's health. Women really want to know the cause of the disease. So, what causes pain in the right lower abdomen during menstruation? Let’s take a closer look at it below.

1. Chronic genital inflammation: The reason why women experience long-term pain in the right lower abdomen during menstruation is mostly caused by chronic genital inflammation. If the patient experiences increased vaginal discharge, it can be judged that it is caused by chronic cervicitis. If you have long-term lumbar and sacral pain that worsens when you are tired or have sexual intercourse, it is usually caused by chronic pelvic inflammation. (Note: Irregular menstruation is also one of the important factors affecting dysmenorrhea)

2. Dysmenorrhea: Primary dysmenorrhea heals itself as adolescent girls grow older and get married or have children. Secondary dysmenorrhea is caused by endometriosis and adenomyosis. When the disease occurs, the patient experiences periodic pain, with dull pain in the lower abdomen being the main symptom. (Note: Bleeding during sexual intercourse is also a manifestation of dysmenorrhea) Adenomyosis, like endometriosis, causes secondary dysmenorrhea, often accompanied by menorrhagia.

The above is an introduction to what causes pain in the right lower abdomen during menstruation. I hope it will be helpful for women. The main causes of pain in the right lower abdomen during menstruation in women are genital inflammation and dysmenorrhea. When it occurs, we should actively look for the cause and then take effective measures to treat it to avoid causing more serious harm to women's health.
