Víctor García*

Dysmenorrhea is a medical term used to describe painful menstrual cramps experienced by women during their menstrual cycle. It is a common gynecological condition affecting millions of women worldwide. The term "dysmenorrhea" originates from the Greek words "dys," meaning difficult or painful and "meno," meaning month. This condition can significantly impact a woman's quality of life and may require medical intervention for effective management. In this essay, we will explore the causes, symptoms, diagnosis and available treatments for dysmenorrhea. There is two types of dysmenorrhea Primary and secondary. Primary dysmenorrhea refers to menstrual pain that occurs without any underlying medical condition. It usually begins during adolescence, shortly after a girl starts her menstrual cycle.
