Filter by:The most important indicator of the fertility period, which has an important place in a woman's life, is the menstrual cycle, which begins with menarche and continues until menopause. In this natural process that takes place every month physiologically, some women experience significant pain [1]. This condition, defined as dysmenorrhea (painful menstruation), is classified in two ways as primary dysmenorrhea (PD) and secondary dysmenorrhea (SD) [2,3]. PD is the most common women's health problem, especially in adolescents and young adults (10-20 years of age) [1,5]. When studies on the incidence and severity of primary dysmenorrhea are examined, the incidence of PD is seen at rates ranging from 40-90% [5-8]. The main goal of the treatment approach to PD, which negatively affects women's quality of life in many ways, is to relieve the woman by reducing the pain. Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) is one of the non-pharmacological and integrated treatment methods for women with primary dysmenorrhea. This practice, which is also referred to as EFT stroke/touch in most sources, is based on expressing the problem by touching the energy meridian points of the body, as in acupuncture and acupressure. Considering the results of the studies, it can be said that EFT is effective in the management of pain and the negative effects caused by the restrictions in the life of the person (social and daily living activities, etc.) [27-30]. Thanks to EFT, it is thought that women will contribute to the reduction of the fear and anxiety of experiencing pain just before menstruation and the anxiety that their life will be limited due to this. Studies investigating the effect of EFT on pain have reported that it is effective in coping with pain [33-35]. However, no randomized controlled study was found in the literature search for the application of EFT in high school students with dysmenorrhea. For this reason, it is thought that if EFT is applied in this age period with a high incidence of dysmenorrhea, important findings can be achieved in terms of parameters such as pain intensity and menstrual symptoms, and it will contribute to the literature by shedding light on similar studies. [36]. Therefore, in this study, it was aimed to determine the effect of the emotional freedom technique applied to high school students with primary dysmenorrhea on pain severity and menstruation symptoms.
Dysmenorrhea is a menstrual disorder defined by the presence of painful cramps of uterine origin that occur during menstruation. It is one of the most common causes of pelvic pain and short-term absenteeism from school or work, among young and adult women. Cryotherapy, therapeutic cooling, is one of the modalities widely used in sports medicine for a variety of treatment purposes. Physiological and neurological responses of musculoskeletal tissues to cooling have been extensively examined in the literature.
The aim of the study is to determine the effect of EFT application on the level of dysmenorrhea and stress perception in women with dysmenorrhea. For this purpose, EFT will be applied to women with dysmenorrhea with high stress perception assigned to the experimental and control groups, and their stress perceptions and dysmenorrhea levels will be re-evaluated after the application. Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) and Visual Analog Scale (VAS) will be used in the research.
85 percent of women of reproductive age experience consistent period cramps/menstrual pain, and 60% indicate that they do not use painkillers to relieve menstrual symptoms; there is a need for natural and non-medicative supplements to dysmenorrhea. The purpose of this clinical trial is to examine the effect of 'Cramp Bites'--classified by a mixture of natural ingredients researched to help with period pain--on women suffering from primary dysmenorrhea: this will be done through providing participants with the snack and surveying them on how it changes their period symptoms.
The aim of the study is to examine the effect of the planned behavior theory-based education program applied to university students with primary dysmenorrhea on physical activity behavior and dysmenorrhea's impact.
This study aims to investigate the effects of transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) on pain, functional and emotional symptoms, and physical performance in individuals with primary dysmenorrhea (PD).
This study was conducted to determine the difference between impact of aerobic and aquatic exercise on primary dysmenorrhea and quality of life in adolescent girls.
Dysmenorrhea, the painful condition experienced by women during menstruation, affects a significant proportion of women worldwide and often leads to decreased productivity. Various pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatments are available for pain relief, but information on their effectiveness, particularly regarding green coconut water, dark chocolate, and Ibuprofen, remains limited. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of green coconut water, dark chocolate bars, and Ibuprofen in reducing the intensity of primary dysmenorrhea. A randomized controlled trial with a quantitative design was conducted, involving 45 participants randomly assigned to receive either 330 ml of green coconut water, 35 grams of 70% dark chocolate, or 400 mg Ibuprofen. Pain intensity was measured before and after treatment.
Analysis of stabilometric and respiratory variables in patients with dysmenorrhea during the first day of the menstrual cycle and any other day outside the cycle.
Currently, there is no agreement in the use of standard questionnaires with adequate validation and structuring measures to classify the severity of dysmenorrhea. This may explain the variability in prevalence, conditions associated with absenteeism (work, school, etc.), or errors in the diagnostic approach to patients with pelvic pain. The aim of this study is to conduct a cross-cultural adaptation study of the Turkish version of the working ability, location, intensity, days of pain, dysmenorrhea (WaLIDD) score, a tool designed to allow the identification of women with dysmenorrhea and those at high risk of obtaining medical clearance for the general population.
