Özet:

 Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of myofascial release techniques on pain and general health status in primary dysmenorrhea. Methods: Eighty women aged 18-25 years with primary dysmenorrhea were included in the study. After obtaining demographic information and information about the first menstrual cycle pain of all women, the severity of pain was evaluated with the Numerical Pain Scale, and general health status was evaluated with the General Health Questionnaire. After the evaluation, the subjects were divided into two groups. Myofascial release techniques were applied to the experimental group in the second menstrual cycle. No treatment was administered to the control group. The evaluations were repeated after the completion of the treatment. Results: The mean age of the women participating in the study was 21.17  1.65 years. When the first and second menstrual cycle parameters were compared between the groups, it was found that pain and general health status parameters showed a significant improvement in the experimental group p0.05, while there was no significant difference in the control group p0.05. Conclusion: Our results show that myofascial release techniques in primary dysmenorrhea are effective in reducing pain and improving the general health status of individuals. Myofascial release techniques may be an alternative treatment for the relief of dysmenorrhea, reduction of drug use, and improvement of conservative treatment of dysmenorrhea.

 etkisini değerlendirmektir. Yöntem: Primer dismenoresi olan 18-25 yaş arası 80 kadın çalışmaya dahil edildi. Demografik bilgiler ve ilk menstrüel siklus ağrısı ile ilgili bilgiler alındıktan sonra, ağrı şiddeti Sayısal Ağrı Ölçeği ile, genel sağlık durumları ise Genel Sağlık Anketi ile değerlendirildi. Değerlendirme sonrasında bireyler iki gruba ayrıldı. Tedavi grubuna ikinci menstrüel siklusta miyofasyal gevşetme teknikleri uygulandı. Kontrol grubuna herhangi bir tedavi uygulanmadı. Değerlendirmeler tedavi tamamlandıktan sonra tekrarlandı. Bulgular: Çalışmaya katılan kadınların yaş ortalaması 21.171.65 yıldı. Gruplar arasında birinci ve ikinci menstrüel siklus parametreleri karşılaştırıldığında, ağrı ve genel sağlık durumu parametrelerinin miyofasyal gevşetme grubunda anlamlı bir iyileşme gösterdiği p0,05, kontrol grubunda ise anlamlı bir fark olmadığı tespit edilmiştir p0,05. Sonuç: Sonuçlarımız primer dismenorede miyofasyal gevşetme tekniklerinin ağrıyı azaltmada ve bireylerin genel sağlık durumunu iyileştirmede etkili olduğunu göstermektedir. Miyofasyal gevşetme teknikleri, dismenorenin giderilmesinde, ilaç kullanımının azaltılmasında ve dismenorenin konservatif tedavisinin iyileştirilmesinde alternatif bir tedavi olabilir.
