    Feeling uterine pain may be related to dysmenorrhea, pelvic inflammatory disease, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, threatened abortion and other factors. It is recommended to seek medical treatment promptly and provide targeted treatment after the cause is identified.

    1. Dysmenorrhea

    Dysmenorrhea is a common cause of uterine pain and may be related to excessive secretion of prostaglandins. Patients will experience symptoms such as lower abdominal pain and lumbosacral soreness. You can use ibuprofen sustained-release capsules, acetaminophen tablets, Yuanhu analgesic tablets and other drugs as directed by your doctor to relieve pain. At the same time, keep your abdomen warm and avoid strenuous exercise.

    2. Pelvic inflammatory disease

    Pelvic inflammatory disease is mostly caused by bacterial infection and presents with symptoms such as persistent pain in the lower abdomen and increased vaginal discharge. It may be related to factors such as unclean sex life and uterine cavity operation. Medications such as metronidazole tablets, levofloxacin hydrochloride capsules, and Gynecological Qianjin Tablets can be used as directed by the doctor. Sexual intercourse should be avoided during treatment.

    3. Endometriosis

    Endometriosis can cause increased abdominal pain during menstruation, which may be accompanied by symptoms such as abnormal menstruation and painful sexual intercourse. The disease may be related to reflux of menstrual blood and immune factors. You can use dienogest tablets, leuprolide acetate microspheres, Sanjie analgesic capsules and other drugs as directed by your doctor to control the progression of the disease.

    4. Uterine fibroids

    When uterine fibroids enlarge, they may compress surrounding tissues and cause pain. They are often accompanied by symptoms such as increased menstrual flow and prolonged menstruation. Fibroid growth may be related to high estrogen levels. You can use mifepristone tablets, Guizhi Fuling capsules, Hongjin Xiaojie tablets and other drugs as directed by your doctor to control the growth of fibroids.

    5. Threatened abortion

    Women who experience uterine pain during pregnancy should be alert to threatened abortion, which may be accompanied by symptoms such as vaginal bleeding and backache. It may be related to factors such as abnormal embryonic development and insufficient luteal function. You should seek medical treatment promptly and use progesterone capsules, dydrogesterone tablets, Baotai Ling capsules and other drugs for miscarriage treatment as directed by the doctor.

    Pay attention to rest every day to avoid overexertion. Keep the perineum clean and change underwear frequently. Eat a light diet and avoid spicy and irritating foods. Perform appropriate pelvic floor muscle exercises to enhance pelvic floor muscle strength. If the pain persists or worsens, you should seek medical examination in time and follow the doctor's instructions for standardized treatment after a clear diagnosis. Women during menstruation can use hot water bottles to apply heat to their abdomen to relieve pain, but they should pay attention to the temperature to avoid burns.
