Dysmenorrhea is defined as pain during the menstrual cycle. The pain is usually located in the lower abdomen and may radiate to the inner thighs and back. It is a very common gynecologic problem and can negatively impact a patient’s life. Providing treatment options for patients affected by dysmenorrhea can significantly reduce the associated morbidity. There are various treatment options, some of which may be more or less helpful for an individual patient. This activity reviews the evaluation and management of dysmenorrhea or painful menstruation. It highlights the role of the interprofessional team in evaluating and treating patients with dysmenorrhea, as well as appropriately referring to subspecialty care when indicated.
