Nursing Diagnosis for DysmenorrheaDysmenorrhea is defined as a condition of severe uterine pain during menstruation. All women experience an irregular period once in awhile during their child bearing years. Some women may experience periodic pains during or prior to, or after menstrual periods in the lower abdomen as resulting of over production of certain hormones in the prostaglandins family.
Primary dysmenorrhea is due to disordered or too much prostaglandin production through the secretory endometrium of the uterus within the absence of a structural lesion.
Dysmenorrhea (painful menstruation) can also include symptoms such as headache, fatigue, bloating, and even nausea, vomiting, and/or diarrhea.
Dysmenorrhea can be treated with a variety of drugs, including pain relievers, sedatives, antispasmodics, prostaglandin inhibitors, and oral contraceptives.
