Periods, also known as menstruation, are regular vaginal bleeding that take place as part of a woman’s monthly cycle. Dysmenorrhea, another name for painful periods, affects a lot of women. Menstrual cramps, which cause throbbing, cramping pain in your lower abdomen, are the most common cause of the pain. Dysmenorrhea comes in two forms: primary and secondary. Every type has a unique set of reasons. Period pain caused by primary dysmenorrhea is the most prevalent type. Period pain that is not brought on by another illness. Secondary dysmenorrhea frequently develops in later life. It is brought on by disorders like endometriosis and uterine fibroids that affect your uterus or other reproductive organs.
Hence, in the upcoming PinkTalk session, we will discuss about this and how the the pain during periods can be slightly made a little bearable!
