EFFORTS TO REDUCE MENSTRUAL PAIN IN ADOLESCENTS

Abstract

Many teenage girls suffer from dysmenorrhea, or menstrual pain, which can negatively impact their everyday activities and quality of life. The purpose of this study is to evaluate how well various therapies work to lessen teenage menstrual pain. Qualitative research employing a case study methodology was the methodology. FGDs and in-depth interviews with fifteen teenage females who suffered from dysmenorrhea were used to gather data. The findings demonstrated that menstruation pain can be considerably reduced by non-pharmacological therapies such yoga, gentle exercise, relaxation techniques, and the application of warm compresses. Furthermore, social support from family and friends is crucial for easing suffering and offering consolation. Participants in this intervention program reported better quality of life throughout the menstrual period and a decrease in the frequency and intensity of menstrual discomfort. In conclusion, reducing teenage menstrual discomfort may be accomplished with a combination of social support and non-pharmacological therapies. This study has significant ramifications for medical professionals who are creating comprehensive, integrated programs to treat teenage dysmenorrhea.
