Effect of TENS on Pain and Symptoms in Primary Dysmenorrhea

The Effect of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) on Pain and Menstrual Symptoms in Primary Dysmenorrhea

This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) in managing pain and alleviating menstrual symptoms in individuals with primary dysmenorrhea. Primary dysmenorrhea is characterized by severe menstrual pain and accompanying symptoms that negatively impact the quality of life and daily functioning. TENS, a non-invasive and drug-free method, is applied to relieve pain by stimulating nerves through electrical impulses. This research evaluates the impact of TENS on both the intensity of menstrual pain and associated symptoms, offering insights into its potential as an alternative or complementary therapeutic approach.
