Secondary dysmenorrhea is often associated with conditions such as endometriosis, uterine fibroids, pelvic inflammatory disease, adenomyosis, endometrial polyps, and menstrual outflow obstruction. In terms of treatment, primary dysmenorrhea can be relieved with Yuanhu Zhitong Pian or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
