What is the reason for the dull pain in the uterus?

The most common type of uterine pain is what we call menstrual pain, but menstrual pain is not the only manifestation and cause of uterine pain. So what are the causes of uterine pain? Let’s take a look together below.

There are four key reasons for uterine pain:

1. Uterine pain caused by certain gynecological diseases

For example, endometriosis usually causes lumps around the uterus, ovaries, uterus, and duodenum, which can aggravate abdominal pain in the early stages of menstruation and during menstruation. Pain during sexual intercourse is also a characteristic of uterine pain.

2. Uterine pain caused by inflammation

It is common in adnexitis and pelvic inflammatory disease, mostly occurs in pregnant women, with pain on one or both sides, and is accompanied by excessive leucorrhea. Chronic cases usually present with dull pain, back pain or a feeling of heaviness; subacute cases usually present with abdominal pain that refuses to be pressed, accompanied by fever.

3. Uterine pain caused by menstruation

Lower abdominal distension and pain and general discomfort that women experience during their menstrual period are mostly physiological phenomena. If the pain is severe, it is menstrual cramps. Most uterine pain during puberty is primary dysmenorrhea, which is curable; while dysmenorrhea that occurs after menstruation is often caused by certain diseases, and should be treated early. Painkillers should not be used to treat the problem.

4. Uterine pain caused by uterine cancer

The cancer compresses the nerves in the pelvis, causing pain in the lower abdomen, when bending over, or in the groin.

Lower abdominal pain may be caused by a cold abdomen or the possibility of an upcoming period. It is recommended not to eat cold food, keep the abdomen warm, and apply heat to the abdomen. If it does not feel well, it is recommended to go to the hospital for an ultrasound to understand the situation.
