Dysmenorrhoea is a condition that negatively affects the quality of life in women of many age groups. In girls with dysmenorrhoea in adolescence, there is an effect on school performance, self-confidence-depression problems and a decrease in quality of life due to pain. In order to eliminate these negative effects, they should receive a good treatment. Medical treatment usually tries to minimise and balance this situation. Considering the fact that families do not want to use drugs such as oral contraceptives in their children at this age and the risks of oral contraceptives, parents are in different searches. Considering that the approach to pain should always be from a holistic perspective, yoga and cognitive exercise therapy approaches are both biopsychosocial treatment methods within the scope of mind-body integrity. Yoga and cognitive exercise therapy approach is thought to reduce symptoms, improve physical functions and quality of life in adolescent girls. With these positive effects, school absenteeism decreases, depression and self-confidence improve. Health costs will also be reduced to some extent.
Dysmenorrhea, derived from ancient Greek, translates to 'difficult monthly flow' and refers to painful cramps during menstruation, a common cause of pelvic pain. The pain, often in the lower abdomen, results from uterine pressure exceeding 60 mmHg. Symptoms include suprapubic pain, radiating discomfort, nausea, diarrhea, and headache, impacting quality of life. Etiology involves factors like age at menarche, heavy flow, lifestyle, and medical conditions. Dysmenorrhea is categorized as primary (without underlying pathology) or secondary (due to conditions like endometriosis). Its prevalence is high in adolescence, affecting daily life, school, and health. Research aims to assess how aerobic and core exercises influence pain and quality of life in adolescent females (14-18 years). Participants are randomly assigned to study and control groups, exploring the potential benefits for health, well-being, and academic performance.
In the study, easy-to-access and easy-to-use reflexologic magnetic insoles were used in women with primary dysmenorrhea who did not want to receive medical treatment; In addition to reducing symptoms such as pain, nausea, dizziness, fainting, vomiting, weakness, constipation/acute gastroenteritis, it is aimed to increase individuals' participation in daily life activities and increase their quality of life by increasing their emotional state.
The aim of this study is to preliminarily evaluate the is to assess the effects and safety of electroacupuncture for moderate to severe dysmenorrhea secondary to adenomyosis.
This study will be conducted to determine Correlation between the levels of serum progesterone and Menstrual Symptoms In Young Females
This study aims to understand whether changes in a variety of body systems which are seen in adult women with period pain are also seen in adolescents in the first few years of having periods. This information will help us to understand 1) how quickly any changes occur, informing clinical practice, and 2) how period pain might lead to other types of chronic pain, potentially allowing development of preventative strategies.
A randomized clinical trial will be conducted at Riphah International University QIE Campus in Lahore, using non-probability convenience sampling with 28 participants. Criteria include women aged 14-26, nulliparous, experiencing primary dysmenorrhea, with normal menstrual cycles and the ability to exercise independently. Group A will receive kegel exercises and 4-7-8 breathing techniques over 8 weeks, while Group B will only receive the breathing technique. Assessments will be done on menstrual cycle days, with follow-ups at weeks 4 and 8 using specific scales. Data will be analyzed using SPSS version 27.
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.
