Randomized trial compares aerobic and isometric exercise to reduce menstrual pain in young women, suggesting new non-drug therapies.
This protocol outlines a randomized clinical trial comparing the effectiveness of aerobic and isometric exercises in reducing primary dysmenorrhea in young females aged 18–25. Participants will be divided into two groups—two intervention (aerobic and isometric exercise) —with exercises performed thrice weekly for 8 weeks. Expected outcomes will be assessed using plasma progesterone levels, Visual Analog Scale, modified Menstrual Symptoms Questionnaire, and Quality of Life measures. The study aims to identify a more effective non-pharmacological exercise intervention for managing menstrual pain and reducing reliance on medication.
