Many women experience discomfort during their menstrual period, such as lower back pain and abdominal pain, which are particularly common. I believe many women are deeply troubled by these discomfort symptoms. Some women experience extremely severe symptoms during their menstrual period, even requiring bed rest. So let's find out what causes menstrual cramps, lower back pain, and abdominal pain?
During menstruation, lower back pain and abdominal pain are related to changes in hormones in the body. During this stage, the secretion of prostaglandins in the body is relatively high, which can easily cause discomfort. And during menstruation, the pelvic cavity is in a congested state, which can also cause lower abdominal bloating and pain. As blood circulation weakens, the lumbar muscles become more prone to fatigue, which can also be accompanied by symptoms of lower back pain. These symptoms are physiological phenomena during menstruation and do not belong to pathological manifestations.
Most women's discomfort during menstruation is not severe and can be tolerated, so there is no need for special treatment. At this time, you can relieve the pain by applying hot compress to the abdomen and waist, and do a good job of keeping the waist and abdomen warm. But if the symptoms of abdominal pain and lower back pain are severe, you can also take some painkillers under the guidance of a doctor.
Actually, paying more attention to uterine care during normal times can reduce discomfort during menstruation. The most important thing to do in daily life is to avoid catching a cold. When the temperature is low, it is important to wear thicker clothing, and when the weather is hot, try not to wear crop tops.
