Introduction  

Women are very habitual of popping Meftal Spas (Mefenamic Acid) tablet for complaint of dysmenorrhoea. These tablets having Mefenamic Acid are easily available over the counter.  But since November 2023 IPC (Indian Pharmacopoeia Commission) has issued an alert saying that Mefenamic Acid can cause Adverse Drug reaction known as DRESS syndrome (Drug Reaction with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms) in patients. Therefore, it is important that we consume the drug only after proper consultation and prescription of the physician. Also a few more adverse effects of prolonged taking such NSAID’s (Non-steroidal Anti-inflammatory drugs) include pathological changes in Liver and Kidney.  

Today’s woman is all independent and leading an example for many, so in order to continue with her work, she may require taking help of certain medication to overcome her complaint of dysmenorrhoea every month! But then if Meftal Spas won’t help her, who will??  

Abroma Augusta will surely prove to be a woman’s BFF!!

Body  

Dysmenorrhoea literally means painful menstruation. It indicates painful menstruation of sufficient magnitude so as to incapacitate day-to-day activities.6

There are basic two types of Dysmenorrhoea- 

• Primary Dysmenorrhoea
• Secondary Dysmenorrhoea

Primary Dysmenorrhoea – There is no identifiable pelvic pathology. It most commonly occurs in adolescent girls and the pain usually subsides in parous women.6 

Secondary Dysmenorrhoea – Pain associated with the presence of pelvic pathology like Chronic Pelvic Infection, Pelvic Endometriosis, Pelvic Adhesions, Adenomyosis, Uterine fibroid etc.6

In this article we will be talking about Primary dysmenorrhoea. 

Now-a-days due to high literacy rate in woman and increase in passion to establish financial independence (for which we need to be proud of them!), the marital age of females has extended to late 20’s even 30’s which again leads to late conception which may lead to few woman suffering from primary dysmenorrhoea for a long time.

Also stress relating to personal and professional life are important factors responsible for hormonal changes which might lead to various gynaecological problems responsible for primary infertility (a very common reason for visiting your gynaec these days).   

One of the reasons for severe dysmenorrhoea is irregular menstrual cycle or amenorrhoea which happens due to lack of physical activity, increased sedentary lifestyle, easy availability of food delivery apps, high standard of living.
