Pain with menstrual causes

Regular and painless menstruation is the first sign of excellent female health. Unfortunately, only a very small part of the fair sex can boast of the absence of pain and discomfort sensations during menstruation.

Some girls, on the other hand, fear with fear the onset of another menstruation, since it is necessarily accompanied by intense pains that significantly darken life and do not let you calmly practice your usual affairs. Such a condition has a special medical name - algomenorea, and can be both congenital and acquired pathology. In this article, we will tell you what causes the pain in the case of menstruation, and when it is necessary to consult a doctor.

Why there are pains with menstruation?

Causes that cause pain during menstruation, as well as after them, there is quite a lot. Depending on the age of the representative of the fair sex and the state of her reproductive system, they can vary significantly. In particular, the painful sensations in adolescent girls are a sign of primary algomenorrhea, which in most cases proves to be caused by innate causes, for example, such as:

• congenital anomalies of connective tissue development;
• certain diseases of the central nervous system, neurological disorders, in which the girls have a decrease in the pain threshold and an increase in sensitivity;
• congenital features of the development of the uterus and its anomalies, for example, kinks to the back or front, the bend of the main female organ, the bicornylum, the two-lobed and so on.

In addition, most girls who have only met with menstruation, there are pains of average intensity associated with changes in the hormonal background. Normally, after 2-3 years the situation is normalized, the menstrual cycle becomes regular, and the pains pass independently. Nevertheless, some girls continue to suffer during menstruation and a few years after their onset.

Women of reproductive age often experience unusually severe pain on the first day of menstruation, the reasons for which usually lie in the following:

• various diseases of the pelvic organs of an infectious-inflammatory woman;
• Adhesive process associated with various ailments in the small pelvis;
• endometriosis or adenomyosis;
• pelvic neuritis;
• malignant and benign neoplasms on the uterus or appendages, including myoma and all kinds of polyps;
• varicose veins in the pelvic organs, as well as the abdominal cavity;
• use of unsuitable means of intrauterine contraception;
• cicatrical narrowing of the uterus, caused by repeated surgical interventions, for example, after numerous abortions;
• complications after natural delivery or cesarean section;
• constant psycho-emotional stress, nervous stress, excessive mental and physical fatigue, lack of the necessary length of rest.

In the case of active development of the inflammatory process of the female reproductive system, pain usually continues after the menstrual system, however, its intensity may decrease somewhat.

Certainly, for some girls and women, painful feelings with menstruation are a variant of the norm, which you just have to accept. At the same time, often such pain is a signal of the female body about serious unhappiness. Consult a doctor immediately if:

• Painful sensations are too intense and do not last for 2-3 days;
• monthly discharges are very abundant and resemble bleeding, and also if they have a large number of clots;
• In addition, you have symptoms such as prolonged diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, as well as severe headache and dizziness.
