Dysmenorrhea
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Dysmenorrhea is menstrual pain that appears before or during the period, generally in the lower abdomen. It is a common discomfort that can range from mild to intense from one person to another.
Common symptoms:
- Cramps or pain in the lower belly
- Discomfort that extends to the back or the legs
- Sometimes nausea, tiredness, or headache
When to consult? When the pain is very intense, interferes with daily activities, or changes from what is usual.
Which specialist treats it? The general practitioner can guide the first evaluation and, if the person prefers, a homeopath can also assess it within their approach. If menstrual pain limits your day-to-day life, it is worth discussing it with a health professional.
