What to do if you have abdominal pain during menstruation

I believe every female friend has experienced dysmenorrhea. Lower abdominal pain and distension during menstruation are the most common manifestations of dysmenorrhea. Because women's hormones change rapidly during menstruation and their immunity is relatively reduced, they should pay special attention to their daily diet and lifestyle. So what should you do if you have abdominal pain during menstruation? Let’s take a look at the introduction below.

1. Physiological factors: Excessive menstrual bleeding leads to loss of blood calcium. However, the demand for calcium for women during puberty increases, resulting in severe calcium deficiency. The blood calcium drops even lower, which often causes spasms and contractions of the uterine wall muscles and causes pain.

2. Cold factors: Catching cold due to cold weather or too little clothing causes stagnation of Qi and blood, making it impossible for menstrual blood to be discharged smoothly and aggravating dysmenorrhea.

3. Fatigue factors: The physical condition of women during menstruation is not as good as usual. They need to supplement nutrition and get more rest. Excessive physical labor will aggravate bleeding and dysmenorrhea.

4. Dietary factors: Some girls love to eat snacks, and they also eat cold drinks and raw and cold foods such as pears during menstruation, which can easily lead to stagnation of Qi and blood. As Chinese medicine says: if there is no blood circulation, there will be pain, which will naturally aggravate dysmenorrhea.

Mitigation methods:

First, make yourself a cup of ginger and brown sugar tea. If you are afraid of trouble, you can buy the bagged ones in the supermarket. Be sure to drink it while it is hot to be effective.

Eat a piece of extremely sweet chocolate. Although people on the Internet say that eating chocolate during menstruation is bad for your health, but when you are in extreme pain and no one can help you share the pain, eating a piece of extremely sweet chocolate will make you feel much more comfortable!

If you have a boyfriend, you might as well ask him to put his broad and warm palm on your lower abdomen. You will then feel a warm current driving away the cold, and with full love, your body will of course feel much more comfortable.

The above introduces in great detail the causes of abdominal pain during menstruation in women, as well as some methods to relieve abdominal pain during menstruation. Female friends who suffer from dysmenorrhea may try to improve the abdominal pain during menstruation by following the above instructions. Severe dysmenorrhea will affect daily wages and life, so it is recommended to seek medical treatment in time.
