Dysmenorrhea - Diagnosis |
|
Text 
Effective therapy requires an accurate diagnosis. Primary dysmenorrhea is usually diagnosed by review of medical history and physical examination. A typical history and a normal physical examination are sufficient to diagnose primary Dysmenorrhea. A pelvic exam is done to rule out any abnormalities in the reproductive organs. The studies that are indicated to identify the causes of secondary Dysmenorrhea include –  Imaging studies - Pelvic ultrasound, Computerized tomography (CT) and Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are non-invasive tests that are used to exclude any pelvic abnormalities. They can be used to diagnose congenital uterine anomalies, myomas and endometriosis. Laparoscopy - A minor surgical procedure where the pelvic cavity is visualized with the help of a fiber optic tube with a small lens, which is inserted into the abdomen through tiny incisions. This procedure is done to rule out endometriosis and pelvic adhesions. Hysteroscopy - Is a surgical procedure where the cervical canal and cavity of the uterus is visualized by inserting a hysteroscope through the vagina. It is used to rule out endometrial polyps. |

Posted on: 03/17/2011 I am one of those lucky women who have not experienced dysmenorrhea!
If you're a woman and your dysmenorrhea is so painful that it disrupts your daily routine, better to have yourself checked by a doctor, specifically an OB-GYN. You might have an underlying problem that contributes to the dysmenorrhea. |
