Background
A randomized prospective controlled study was conducted concerning the effects of progressive relaxation exercises on the reduction of pain in primary dysmenorrhea. Materials and methods The research control group (CG) consisted of 60 students while the experimental group (EG) consisted of 64 students. The progressive relaxation exercises were self-administered via compact disc (CD) by participants for two menstrual cycles. A descriptive information form, a visual analog scale (VAS) and a dysmenorrhea monitoring form (DMF) were used for data collection. Results The difference between the average first and final post-exercise measurements of the VAS scores of students in the experimental group was statistically significant (p 0.05). Conclusion Progressive relaxation exercises are an effective method for reducing dysmenorrhea when they are performed on a regular basis. |
