Secondary dysmenorrhoea - what does this mean

Secondary dysmenorrhoea is a form of painful menstrual cramps that is caused by an underlying medical condition, such as endometriosis, fibroids, pelvic inflammatory disease, uterine polyps, or an intrauterine device. these conditions cause inflammation and irritation of the uterus, leading to painful menstrual cramps.

What happens during the disease - secondary dysmenorrhoea

Отделение клеток эндометрия сопровождается раздражением большого количества нервных волокон в стенке матки, брюшине, других органах и тканях и вызывает резкое увеличение уровня простагландинов. Простагландины увеличивают сократимость мышечного слоя матки, вызывают спазм артериол, что влечет за собой ухудшение кровоснабжения миометрия, и воздействуют на нервные волокна в стенке матки, повышая их чувствительность к боли. Длительный спазм сосудов, усиление сокращений матки и повышение болевой чувствительности провоцируют болевой синдром. С повышением уровня простагландинов связывают и другие симптомы альгодисменореи: тошноту, диарею, учащение сердцебиения, ознобы, гипергидроз, головокружение и пр.

 

Альгодисменорея также нередко появляется при воспалительных заболеваниях, особенно – хронических, длительно текущих. Это связано с тем, что воспаление провоцирует образование спаек, а спаечный процесс влечет за собой нарушение расположения матки и появление механических препятствий нормальному оттоку менструальной крови. Кроме того, воспаление сопровождается отеком тканей и сдавлением нервных волокон и само по себе вызывает боль, усугубляемую сокращениями матки.

 

Иногда при вторичной альгодисменорее наблюдается отделение «слепка матки» - состояние, при котором функциональный слой эндометрия не подвергается расплавлению в полости матки, а выходит из нее в виде цельной пленки. Выделение такой пленки сопровождается очень интенсивными схваткообразными болями.
