Primary | Change from Baseline Blood Flow Rate at Two Menstrual Cycle | Blood flow rate will be evaluated with the portable vascular doppler. Measurements will be made from the right or left common iliac artery, branches of the abdominal aorta, and the ipsilateral femoral artery. After the ultrasound gel is applied to the measurement area, the probe will be placed at an angle of 30° and the measurement will be taken. | Baseline and 8 weeks | |
Primary | Follow- up Evaluation Blood Flow Rate | Blood flow rate will be evaluated with the portable vascular doppler. Measurements will be made from the right or left common iliac artery, branches of the abdominal aorta, and the ipsilateral femoral artery. After the ultrasound gel is applied to the measurement area, the probe will be placed at an angle of 30° and the measurement will be taken. | 8 weeks through study completion | |
Secondary | Change from Baseline Pain Severity at Two Menstrual Cycle | It will be evaluated with the visual analog scale. Pain is determined by measuring the mark on the 10-centimeter line according to the severity of the pain. According to the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), a score of 0 indicates no pain, and 10 indicates unbearable pain. | Baseline and 8 weeks | |
