Lower Abdominal Pain

女性性生理问题

下腹部疼痛

有时,许多妇女感到在下腹部疼痛,尤其在月经之前或月经期间疼痛更加明显。这有非常充分的理由与经前期综合征[Premenstrual syndrome” (PMS)]有关。但是,有其他的可能原因,诸如性传播疾病、膀胱有炎症(cystitis,膀胱炎)或肾脏、子宫、输卵管或卵巢有毛病,都可能是下腹部疼痛的原因。下腹部疼痛起源于消化道(胃、肠)也是可能的原因。在某些病例,下腹部疼痛剧烈,因而容易识别,在另一些病例,疼痛隐隐约约,因而难以定位。不过,忽然发生下腹部剧烈的疼痛,应该立即寻求医学帮助,为的是排除可能严重的危险病症。
无论如何,对每一个妇女来说,熟悉自己的性器官和月经周期模式只会是有用的。她们也应该了解性传播疾病的可能症状。依据这样的知识基础,她们更有主见决定什么时候去看医生并怎样协助医生作出正确的诊断。

Physical Problems in Females

Lower Abdominal Pain

Many women feel some pain in the lower abdomen from time to time, especially before or during their menstrual periods. This may very well be related to the premenstrual syndrome (PMS). However, there are other possible causes, such as a sexually transmitted infection, an inflammation of the bladder (cystitis) or a problem with the kidneys, the uterus, the Fallopian tubes, or the ovaries. It is also possible that the pain originates from the digestive tract (stomach, bowels). In some cases, the pain is sharp and easy to identify, in other cases it is unspecific and hard to locate. However, a sudden, severe lower abdominal pain should prompt any woman to seek medical help, if only to rule out a serious, possibly dangerous condition.
In any case, it is useful for all women to be familiar with their own sex organs and menstruation pattern. They should also know the possible symptoms of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). On this basis, they can more easily decide when to see a doctor and how to assist in a correct diagnosis.
