Extractions: What Is Homeopathy? Belladonna: Symptoms that are very intense and come and go suddenly, accompanied by a feeling of heat, often indicate a need for this remedy. The menstrual flow is typically bright red, profuse, and may have begun too early. Pain and cramping are worse from jarring and from touch, yet applying steady pressure often brings relief. Walking or bending over can make things worse, and sitting may be the most tolerable position. A woman who needs this remedy may feel restless and flushed, with pulsing or pounding sensations, and eyes that are sensitive to light. Bovista: Women needing this remedy tend to have problems with puffiness and edema during times of menstrual stress, and can feel very awkward and clumsy. Pain may be felt in the pelvic region, often with soreness near the pubic bone. Menstrual flow increases at night (and may even be absent during the day). Diarrhea occurring at the time of the menstrual period is a strong indication for this remedy. Caulophyllum: Women with a history of weak uterine tone and irregular periods may find some relief in this remedy. Intense discomfort during periods, with drawing pains in the thighs and legs as well as the pelvic area, are strong indications. The woman may experience a heavy flow of blood or other discharge. Stiffness or arthritis, especially in the finger-joints, may be seen in a person who needs this remedy.

The pain can spread over the whole abdomen, the lumbo-sacral region, or there is dragging pain in the vulva and anus. It varies in degrees and can be relieved when the menstrual blood flows smoothly. Pain beginning before or during the period suggests excess. Pain beginning at the end or after the period suggests deficiency. Pressure making the pain worse suggests excess. Pressure making the pain better suggests deficiency.

http://healthcenter.ucdavis.edu/htdysmenorrhea.html

Extractions: Dysmenorrhea is the medical name for the pain of severe and disabling menstrual cramps. Approximately 52% of women are affected by dysmenorrhea and about 10% of these are incapacitated each month for up to three days. The pain usually starts as menstruation starts, but mild cramping or lower abdominal pain may begin 24 to 48 hours before the flow begins. It may last only a few hours until the flow is well-established, but some women are troubled for several days. What causes Dysmenorrhea? The exact cause of dysmenorrhea is still unknown, but a group of substances called prostaglandins have been the focus of recent attention. Prostaglandins are produced by the lining of the uterus and cause the muscle wall of the uterus to contract, producing the type of pain most women with dysmenorrhea have. Women with severe cramps appear to produce more of these chemicals than women with mild or no cramps, especially just before and on the first day of their periods. Are there other symptoms?

WHAT IS IT? dysmenorrhea (menstrual cramps or painful periods) is a feeling of physicaldiscomfort that occurs immediately before or during menstrual periods.
http://www.barnard.columbia.edu/health/publications/dysmenorrhea.htm

Extractions: WHAT IS IT? Dysmenorrhea (menstrual cramps or painful periods) is a feeling of physical discomfort that occurs immediately before or during menstrual periods. WHAT CAUSES IT? Researchers believe that menstrual cramps are influenced by prostaglandins, which are chemicals normally produced in the body. Too much prostaglandin may lead to excess cramping of the uterus, which results in pain. WHAT ARE ITS COMMON SYMPTOMS? The following is a list of frequently mentioned complaints: lower abdominal discomfort and fullness, backache, leg and/or thigh aches, headache, nausea, diarrhea, bloating, dizziness, irritability, fatigue, pelvic fullness or heaviness. HOW LONG WILL IT LAST? Menstrual cramps and other menstrual discomforts usually begin 12-24 hours prior to, or on, the day of the onset of menstrual flow. For most women the symptoms last only a day or two. For others, the symptoms may last throughout the period (5 to 7 days). Some women have the same kinds of menstrual discomfort with every period but for other women the symptoms may change from month to month. IS IT CONTAGIOUS?

http://www.hollandandbarrett.com/Concern/Dysmenorrhea.htm

Extractions: Dysmenorrhea Also indexed as: Painful Menstruation Dysmenorrhea, or painful menstruation, is classified as either primary or secondary. Primary dysmenorrhea generally occurs within a couple of years of the first menstrual period. The pain tends to decrease with age and very often resolves after childbirth. Secondary dysmenorrhea is commonly a result of endometriosis, starts later in life, and tends to increase in intensity over time. As many as half of menstruating women are affected by dysmenorrhea, and of these, about 10% have severe dysmenorrhea, which greatly limits activities for one to three days each month. Conventional treatment options: Conventional treatment includes pain medications such ibuprofen paracetamol Oral contraceptives may also be used to suppress ovulation. In cases of severe nausea and vomiting, anti-nausea medicines may be recommended. Lifestyle changes that may be helpful: Many women feel the need to lie still while experiencing menstrual cramps, while others find that exercise helps relieve the pain of dysmenorrhea. This variation from woman to woman may explain why some researchers report that exercise makes symptoms worse, though most studies report that exercise appears helpful.

Extractions: DYSMENORRHEA Painful menstruation is difficult to treat, not because the disorder will not yield to therapy, but because women have about the worst record of noncompliance to medical counsel with this disorder that with any other. The reason for noncompliance will become obvious as the causes of dysmenorrhea are discussed. One important cause of dysmenorrhea is that of wearing improper clothing. Tight bands around the waist, hips, or thighs impede the circulation to the pelvic organs and increase the likelihood of painful menstruation. Also, the clothing of the extremities must be proper. There should not be one inch of chilled skin on the extremities any time during the month, not only during the menstrual period itself. The extremities should be covered with as many layers of clothing as is the trunk. To fail to do so is to cause the circulation to be imbalanced, and increases the likelihood of pelvic congestion and painful menstruation. Most American women do not get sufficient exercise; this fact is second only to improper clothing in the causation of dysmenorrhea. A study showed that 75% of a group of 5,000 junior high school girls were either cured or had definite improvement of menstrual discomfort with simple bending and stretching exercises. The first exercise was stretching, done by touching the fingers to the ankles with the knees held straight. The second exercise was thrusting the leg backward as the arms were swung high over the head. These two exercises performed 4-10 times daily, four times weekly for several weeks resulted in a 75% improvement rate. In our experience, one hour of useful vigorous labor out-of-doors daily has been more effective in curing dysmenorrhea than have calisthenics.

http://www.siu.edu/~shp/WebEd/Dysmenorrhea.htm

Extractions: Severe, painful cramps during menstruation. Primary dysmenorrhea means pain has recurred regularly since periods began. Secondary dysmenorrhea means pain began years after periods started. Women with dysmenorrhea are generally fertile. Severity of symptoms varies greatly from woman to woman, and from one time to the next in the same woman. Dysmenorrhea usually is less severe after a woman has a baby. FREQUENT SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS
Retroverted Uterus - Dysmenorrhea Treatment By Uterine Suspension

http://www.inletmedical.com/html/dysmenorrhea.htm

Extractions: Uterine Suspension and the Treatment of Dysmenorrhea Related to a Retroverted Uterus Background Uterine retroversion has been considered an anatomic variant that is largely asymptomatic. However, some of the 20 to 30% of women with a retroverted uterus experience a constellation of chronic pelvic pain symptoms including severe dysmenorrhea. When dysmenorrhea is refractory to medical therapy, possible contributing factors should be carefully considered in the process of developing a treatment plan. These factors include endometriosis, functional disorders of the urinary and gastrointestinal systems and/or pelvic floor defects. Diagnosis should include a detailed medical history and a thorough pelvic exam. Tests including laparoscopy may also identify possible causative factors. If uterine retroversion is the only documented pathology, uterine suspension should be considered as a conservative therapy in women experiencing chronic pelvic pain including dysmenorrhea. Newer laparoscopic uterine suspension techniques and careful patient selection make it possible to obtain good long-term relief of dysmenorrhea with minimal procedure and recovery time.

Dysmenorrhea: When Periods Are Painful
Discusses primary and secondary dysmenorrhea, diagnosis, and factorsthat contribute to severe menstrual pain. Secondary dysmenorrhea
http://www.menstrual-disorders.com/html/dysmenorrhea.php3

Extractions: One theory is that menstrual cramps are caused when hormone-like prostaglandins are secreted and stimulate strong muscle contractions in the uterus. However, this theory has not been proven. Caffeine appears to increase menstrual pain as well as PMS symptoms, and different types of stress may also make it worse. Cramping that goes away after a few days and is not related to other physical problems is called primary dysmenorrhea , which typically begins within a year or two of menarche. When cramps are intense and due to an underlying abnormality, they're called secondary dysmenorrhea , which can occur years after a woman has begun to menstruate.

Cramps Really Are Cramps (Dysmenorrhea)

http://www.incontinet.com/dysmenorrhea.htm

Extractions: by Vaginal EMG Biofeedback O ften the most significant discoveries are serendipitous, and the present case study is a prime example. The subject was a 21-year-old college student who wanted to earn $25 by participating in basic "Masters and Johnson" type sex research. But on the appointed Saturday morning she appeared at the laboratory with a tortured look on her face. "I really want to do this, and I really need the money," she exclaimed, "but I just got my period this morning and I am in absolute agony with cramps. What can I do?" It did not take long to come up with an answer. "Instead of researching 'sex', we'll research 'dysmenorrhea' today", I replied. It is actually a rare opportunity to get research subjects when they are in great pain they usually call up and cancel. Insertion of the vaginal EMG sensor required removal of her tampon, with predictable consequences. But replacement of the bed sheets and blanket was a small price to pay for the valuable data we collected that day.

http://www.fcer.org/html/news/dysmenorrhea.htm

Extractions: From Anthony L. Rosner, Ph.D., FCER Director of Research Des Moines, Iowa -Patricia Brennan's dysmenorrhea study, a full-scale clinical trial begun in 1992, has resulted in a paper accepted for publication in April 1999 by the journal Pain It was preceded by a pilot study addressed to the same issue which was published in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics in 1992 . Unfortunately, the recent publication in Pain suffers from a number of design flaws, omissions of data, and unexplained contradictions with the earlier pilot studyall of which significantly compromise its validity and leave more questions unanswered than resolved. One wishes that greater efforts were made by the authors to resolve what had appeared to be a positive result in the earlier investigation with the negative findings obtained in the more recent publication, above and beyond what sometimes might be expected with the differences of population types and numbers between the two investigations. The purpose in both of these studies was to assess the comparative effects of a high force spinal manipulative therapy (SMT) and low force maneuver (LFM) in affecting the pain and prostaglandin levels experienced in women with primary dysmenorrhea. The full-scale trial employed patient groups of 65-70, approximately three times larger than those employed in the pilot study. In addition, it observed patients over a total of four menstrual cycles: one as a baseline control after which subjects were randomized into the two intervention groups, and
