I got my period in middle school and started having menstrual cramps a year or two later. When I was in pain, I couldn't go to class and had to go back to the dormitory to lie down. Then I went to work and had to cover my stomach and ask my boss for time off. In order to cure dysmenorrhea, I tried a lot of medicines, such as Wuji Baifeng Pills, Yue Yue Shu Granules, and Angelica tablets, but some of them were effective at the beginning and then became ineffective, and some of them were not effective at all. The key was that I had to take them on a regular schedule, which was too troublesome. I stopped taking them, so I just let the pain go. The first thing I'd like to say is that I don't know what to say, but I'd like to say that I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do it, and I don't know if I'm going to be able to do it.
These words were also used by my family to urge me to get married and have a baby. I'm not sure how much I'm going to be able to do, but I'm sure I'm going to be able to make it work. Although I didn't have a successful delivery, I did experience a lot of pain for most of the day. The fact is that there are benefits to having menstrual cramps. They say that giving birth to a child has ten levels of pain, so how do I feel that it only hurts a little bit more than the usual menstrual cramps? After the birth of my baby, I was very attentive to the feeling of my belly when I had my period again - "Do you still feel pain?" Although I still feel the coldness of my belly, and need to apply a hot water bag or press a hot water bottle to feel better, but the kind of pain that I still fall asleep late at night in a cold sweat as if floating in mid-air, it seems to be really far away from me.
Is the change from menstrual cramps to less pain really a benefit of having a baby?
Is having a baby the best cure for menstrual cramps? Why is it so amazing?
In the spirit of research, I looked up the information.
It turns out that not all menstrual cramps are cured by having a baby. It depends on what kind of menstrual cramps you have.
If you have primary dysmenorrhea, most of it stops after you have children. This is because the cause of primary dysmenorrhea is a narrow cervical canal or a uterus that is positioned too far back, resulting in poor outflow of shed endometrial debris. During childbirth, the cervix dilates and becomes larger, and the flow of endometrial debris becomes smoother, so naturally the menstrual cramps stop. Recall that my dysmenorrhea was almost a year or two after my first period, which would be considered primary dysmenorrhea.
If the dysmenorrhea is caused by cold uterus, it can be alleviated after giving birth to a child, but the cold in the uterus is carried by the child, which may cause the child's body to be cold or even umbilical hernia. When the uterus is too cold, the menstrual blood clogs up and is not discharged properly, then menstrual cramps will occur. If you think you may have symptoms of uterine cold, usually after taking angelica tablets or moxibustion, you will have less clots and less pain when you come back for your period.
If the dysmenorrhea is caused by a pathology such as endometriosis or adenomyosis, these lesions will resurface after the resumption of menstruation after childbirth, causing dysmenorrhea again. This kind of dysmenorrhea can not be improved by having children.
As you can see, different causes of dysmenorrhea will improve differently after having children, or nothing will change. If you are suffering from dysmenorrhea for many years, don't hope for a "baby" cure, go to the hospital and find out the cause first.
