“…As a person ages, the width of the cervix increases, and the secretion of prostaglandins decreases. 15 Our analysis proved a significant difference in pain levels in the experimental group before and after treatment (p < 0.001). The mean pain level was 5.42 (moderate pain) and 2.86 (mild pain) for pre and post-treatment, respectively.…”

“…Mammo et al said that participants ages 14-17 years were 2.55 times more likely to experience primary dysmenorrhea than those aged ≥18 years (AOR 2.55; 95% CI (1.77-3.68)). 15 Therefore, primary dysmenorrhea is more frequent in young virgin girls and nulliparous, and its prevalence decreases with aging. As a person ages, the width of the cervix increases, and the secretion of prostaglandins decreases.…”

Background: Dysmenorrhea or pain during menstruation is due to excessive contractions during the sloughing of the uterine wall with symptoms of cramping pain in the lower abdomen. The incidence of primary dysmenorrhea in Indonesia is 54.89%. However, many teenagers do not know how to manage the pain. The pharmacological therapy of dysmenorrhea includes painkillers and anti-prostaglandin, while the non-pharmacological approach includes distraction therapy. One of the distraction therapy that is easy to do is murottal Al-Qur’an.Objective: This study observed the role of listening to murottal Al-Qur’an on the intensity of dysmenorrhea among senior high school students.Methods: The design of this study is a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest with a control group design. There were 100 subjects aged 15-18 years old. The sampling technique applied purposive sampling. Data analysis of this study applied Wilcoxon, Mann-Whitney, relative risk (RR), and number needed to treat (NNT) test.Results: The mean pain level in the experimental and control group were 5.42 and 5.56 before intervention. After therapy, the pain level decreased to 2.86 and 5.30 in the experimental and control group, respectively. There was a significant difference in the pain level before and after in the experiment group (p <0.001). Relative risk showed that murottal intervention decreases the pain level by 3.267 times. NNT of the study was 1.467.Conclusion: Murottal Al-Qur’an significantly reduced the degree of pain with a p-value <0.001

“…Although menstruation is a physiological process, pain may render it a very unpleasant experience. University students are one of the high-risk categories for developing primary dysmenorrhea, with nursing students being particularly vulnerable; Nearly half of students with primary dysmenorrhea missed academic attendance at least once every cycle (Mammo et al, 2022;Azagew et al, 2020). Despite the significant impact of menstrual pain, most young women do not seek medical treatment but prefer to use self-care because it is cost effective, easy to use and harmless.…”

Background: The quality of life for females who experience primary dysmenorrhea, which causes spasmodic cramping in the lower abdomen, back, or inner thighs, may be negatively impacted. Therefore, non-pharmacological methods such as Jacobson's relaxation technique and warm compresses can be safe and effective treatment for primary dysmenorrhea, as they reduce women's menstrual pain and improve their quality of life. Aim of the study: to investigate the effect of Jacobson's relaxation technique versus warm compresses on pain intensity, fatigue and quality of life among nursing students with primary dysmenorrheal Design: A quasi-experimental, comparative research design. Sample: A convenient sample of 100 female students with primary dysmenorrhea. Setting: This study was carried out at the Faculty of Nursing, Damanhour University in El-Beheira Governorate, Egypt, from the beginning of March 2022 till the end of June 2022.Data Collection Tools: four tools were utilized, tool one: basic data structured interview schedule, which included socio-demographic and clinical data as well as menstrual history and dietary habits; tool two: Visual Analog Scale (VAS);tool three: Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS) and tool four: 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36).Results: after intervention, severe pain was declined (2%) among the Jacobson's relaxation technique group, but it remained the same among the warm compresses group. in contrast, fatigue was diminished (78%) among the latter group, while it was dropped (52%) among the former group. In addition; the warm compresses group obtained significantly better total score of quality of life than the Jacobson's relaxation technique group in terms of general health (P=0.000), energy/fatigue (P=0.043) and emotional well-being (P=0.046) Conclusion: : it was concluded from this study that although Jacobson's relaxation technique was a little bit more effective in relieving menstrual pain than warm compresses, the latter was more effective in relieving fatigue and improving quality of life than the former. .Recommendations: Health teaching classes for adolescent should be conducted to teach them about the benefits of Jacobson's relaxation technique and warm compresses in decreasing menstrual pain
