Experience of the Lutein drugs use for the treatment of dysmenorrhea

Abstract

Treatment of dysmenorrhea is a very important question. Dysmenorrhea is a cyclic pathological process, manifested by pain in the lower abdomen in the days of menstruation and is accompanied by emotional-mental, vegetative, vegetative-vascular and metabolic endocrine symptoms. Dysmenorrhea is divided into primary, in which you cannot identify pathological changes in the genital organs, and secondary, associated with gynecological diseases (most often inflammatory diseases of the genital organs and endometriosis). Drugs that are used for dysmenorrhea treatment are often characterized by the presence of side effects, inconvenience for the patient or the high cost. Aim. To analyze drugs use for the treatment of dysmenorrhea. Metods and results. There were 66 patients with dysmenorrhea under our supervision. Patients were divided into two groups of 33 women.

There is evidence that Lutein is an optimal choice because of its efficiency, an affordable price, a comfortable mode of use and rare side effects.
