Women's menstrual cycle is formed due to the periodic shedding of the endometrium. Before menopause, the endometrium of women shows periodic thickening, and the thickness of the endometrium varies at different times. Generally speaking, the thickness of the endometrium is thickest before menstruation and thinnest after menstruation. Can thick endometrium cause dysmenorrhea?
There is no necessary connection between endometrial thickness and dysmenorrhea. The thickness of the endometrium shows periodic changes, which are normal physiological changes and generally do not cause dysmenorrhea. But sometimes there may be certain problems with the endometrium, such as if endometriosis occurs, women may experience severe dysmenorrhea, which is pathological and secondary.
Dysmenorrhea can be divided into secondary and primary types. Secondary dysmenorrhea is generally closely related to diseases, and endometrial thickening may be caused by diseases or physiological factors. If it is caused by a disease, it may bring a certain degree of pain. For example, if endometrial adenomyosis occurs, there may be thickening of the endometrium, which may lead to pelvic pain and appear as if dysmenorrhea has occurred.
There are many women who suffer from dysmenorrhea, and once it occurs, they need to endure a lot of pain. Women need to identify the causes of dysmenorrhea and actively respond to them.
