Functional dysmenorrhea treatment?

summary

Primary dysmenorrhea is functional dysmenorrhea. Dysmenorrhea refers to menstrual pain, often spasmodic, concentrated in the lower abdomen. Other symptoms include headache, fatigue, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, low back and leg pain. It is a very common disease in young women. Primary dysmenorrhea is not accompanied by obvious pelvic organic diseases. Let's share my experience with you.

Functional dysmenorrhea treatment?

First of all, it is necessary to explain dysmenorrhea, especially for adolescent girls. Explain the basic physiological knowledge, clarify that "menstruation" is a normal physiological phenomenon, help patients dispel worries and build confidence. Dysmenorrhea can rest in bed or hot compress the lower abdomen. Pay attention to menstrual hygiene. Can also take general nonspecific analgesics, such as: salicylate, antipyretic analgesic effect.

Oral contraceptives are suitable for dysmenorrhea patients who need to take contraceptive measures. Since the 1960s, a large number of studies and observations have confirmed that oral contraceptives can effectively treat primary dysmenorrhea, making 50% of patients' pain completely relieved and 40% significantly relieved. Oral contraceptives can inhibit endometrial growth, reduce blood levels of prostaglandin, vasopressin and oxytocin (oxytocin), and inhibit uterine activity.

In women with primary dysmenorrhea, the increase of uterine activity is partly due to the imbalance of ovarian hormones, which may be caused by the increase of estrogen levels in luteal phase and premenstrual phase. Estrogen can stimulate the synthesis and release of PGF2a and vasopressin. Oral contraceptives may inhibit uterine activity by changing the imbalance of ovarian hormones. It was once thought that the activity of progesterone is an important factor in the treatment of dysmenorrhea. However, recent studies have confirmed that a variety of Estrogen Progesterone compound contraceptives can reduce the incidence of dysmenorrhea, reduce the degree of dysmenorrhea, the effect has no significant difference.
