1. Homeopathy Treatment for Painful Periods
Dysmenorrhea, also known as painful periods or menstrual cramps,
is pain during menstruation. It occurs around the time when
menstruation begins.
Symptoms of Painful Periods
- You may suffer from the pain in lower abdomen, back and pelvis (the
lower part of the abdomen that is located between the hip bones in a
female).

2. - Pain may radiate to the thighs and lower back.
- Pain may occur 1 or 2 days before onset of period and may subside
once the flow begins or sometimes symptoms may last up to 2 to 3
days.
- Menstrual pain may be cramping, cutting, stitching, spasmodic or
sometimes may be so severe that it may hamper day to day life
activities, forcing you to lie on bed.
- Associated symptoms often co-occurring with menstrual pain include
nausea and vomiting, diarrhea, headache, dizziness, disorientation, fai
nting and fatigue, painful tender breasts, mental irritability, etc.
Symptoms of dysmenorrhea often begin immediately after ovulation
(release of egg) and can last until the end of menstruation. This is
because dysmenorrhea is often associated with changes in hormonal
levels in the body that occur with ovulation.
In particular, prostaglandins induce abdominal contractions that can
cause pain and gastrointestinal symptoms (nausea, vomiting,
diarrhoea), etc.
Causes of Painful Periods
- Primary Dysmenorrhea
It occurs without an associated underlying condition. In young women,
painful periods often occur due to low hemoglobin, internal weakness,
etc.
- Secondary Dysmenorrhea
It has a specific underlying cause, typically a condition that affects the
uterus or other reproductive organs.
In adult and elderly women, it is more often due to an underlying issues
such as uterine fibroids, adenomyosis or endometriosis, ovarian cysts,
pelvic congestion due to PID pelvic inflammatory disease), etc.
It is more common among those with heavy periods, irregular periods,
whose periods started before twelve years of age or who have a low
body weight.

3. Types of Painful Periods
1. Spasmodic Dysmenorrhea
It is the most common dysmenorrhea with cramping pains, mostly on
the first and second day of menstruation.
The pain is of uterine origin, seen in young girls. Causes may be narrow
cervix, uterine abnormalities, hormonal factors, psychogenic causes (
seen in fearful, anxious women with low threshold for pain), etc.
2. Congestive Dysmenorrhea
It is manifested as increasing pelvic discomfort and pelvic pain few
days before the commencement of menses.
It is always relieved by the menstrual flow. Patient is elderly beyond 30
years. The pain is always related to pelvic inflammatory disease or
pelvic endometriosis.
3. Membranous Dysmenorrhea
The cramping pain is usually accompanied by the passage of
membranes which may take the form of casts of the uterine cavity.
It is usually rare, runs in families and recur after pregnancy.
4. Ovarian Dysmenorrhoea
Ovarian dysmenorrhoea is due to ovarian dysfunction and the pain is
felt two to three days before menses in lower abdomen and lower
back.
Mechanism of Painful Periods
During a woman's menstrual cycle, the endometrium (lining of
uterus) thickens in preparation for potential pregnancy. After ovulation
(release of egg) , if the ovum (egg) is not fertilized and there is no
pregnancy, the built-up uterine tissue is not needed and thus shed
(bleeding occurs).

4. The underlying mechanism of primary dysmenorrhea is the contractions
of the muscles of the uterus which induce a local ischemia (lack of
blood supply).
Prostaglandins are released during menstruation, due to the
destruction of the endometrial cells and cause the uterus to contract.
These substances are thought to be a major factor in primary
dysmenorrhea.
When the uterine muscles contract, they constrict the blood supply to
the tissue of the endometrium which in turn breaks down and dies.
These uterine contractions continue as they squeeze the old, dead
endometrial tissue through the cervix and out of the body through
the vagina. These contractions, and the resulting temporary oxygen
deprivation to nearby tissues are responsible for the pain or cramps
experienced during menstruation.
Diagnosis of Painful Periods
The diagnosis of dysmenorrhea is usually made simply on a medical
history of menstrual pain and pelvic examination. Sometimes
ultrasound, laparoscopy may be required.
What can I do to Avoid Painful Periods or Improve my Situation?
1) You can apply heat such as hot water bottle to abdomen.
2) You should take adequate rest during periods.
3) Nourishing diet with fruits and plenty of fluid must be taken.
4) Slight exercise can be done.

body.
What can Homeopathy do?
Homeopathy strengthens the immune power of female and help to
overcome the pain quickly.
It acts on the root cause of pain and provides relief.

5. Homeopathic constitutional medicine is selected after individualization
taking into account your present symptoms, history of dysmenorrhea,
medicinal intake history (painkillers, oral contraceptive pills, etc),
physical and mental symptoms, associated symptoms along with
factors that increase or decrease your pain.
The aim is to prevent you from suffering of painful menses completely
and also save you from long continuous use of harmful painkillers.
In cases where anaemia is the cause, we tend to rectify the cause
which leads to decrease in hemoglobin level. Just giving iron
supplement does not solve the problem.
Same applies for uterine and ovarian dysfunction, pelvic inflammatory
diseases, fibroids, cysts, etc. Unless we treat the underlying cause , we
can't cure the problem completely.
