Efficacy of Radiofrequency in Primary Dysmenorrhea

Study on radiofrequency effects for menstrual pain relief.

Recruiting
18-35 years
Female
Phase N/A

Primary Dysmenorrhea is the medical term for painful menstrual cramps. This study is testing if radiofrequency, a physiotherapy method using energy waves, can reduce this pain. Women aged 18-35 with regular periods and no children can join. The study will have three groups: two receive radiofrequency treatments, either through the belly or vaginally, and one group will not receive any treatment during the study.

Participants will rate their pain on a Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) and answer questions about their life quality. This will happen before the treatment, after the first period following the treatment, and after the second period.

  • Duration: 3 weeks, with sessions 3 times a week for 20 minutes each.
  • Compensation: Not mentioned, but the control group will receive treatment after the study ends if beneficial results are found.
  • Risks: Participants should not have recent surgeries, certain devices, or other health issues.

By understanding whether radiofrequency can ease menstrual pain, this study might offer new hope for women experiencing dysmenorrhea. 😊
