Description
Summary:Dysmenorrhea is common menstrual cramps that are recurrent and are not due to other diseases. Young girls who suffer from this problem generally take some medicines to get some relief. The present study was aimed to find the effect of physical exercises on stress among students with dysmenorrhea. 20 students were selected as sample for this study. The entire treatment process was scheduled for three months - 4 days a week. For measuring the stress of the patients, the scholars used a standard questionnaire - Perceived Stress Scale. Analysis of the results revealed that performing exercise significantly reduced the stress of dysmenorrhea (P< 0.01). So, it can be concluded from this study that if dysmenorrhea patients regularly practice some physical exercise they can get rid of mental stress during painful menstruation.
