Dry needling therapy targeting myofascial trigger points for primary dysmenorrhea has been preliminarily applied in clinical settings. However, related research is limited with questionable quality, hindering its widespread clinical application. Furthermore, is there a connection between myofascial trigger points in dry needling and acupuncture acupoints in terms of selection and mechanism of action? Could this be a new interpretation of acupuncture theory? These are important questions that have garnered widespread attention. This study employs a randomized patient-blinded controlled design, enrolling primary dysmenorrhea patients aged 18 to 30 years. They are randomly divided into three groups: the trigger point dry needling group, traditional acupuncture treatment group, and trigger point sham needle (placebo) group. Changes in pain levels, quality of life scores, inflammatory factor levels, and local blood flow before and after treatment among the three groups are observed. The aim is to assess the therapeutic effects of dry needling trigger points and acupuncture treatments on primary dysmenorrhea and explore their potential mechanisms of action. By comparing the differences and similarities between dry needling trigger points and acupuncture treatments in terms of acupoint selection, treatment effects, and potential mechanisms of action, this study seeks to preliminarily explore the feasibility of integrating trigger point theory into the meridian 'acupoint' theory, laying the foundation for a modern interpretation of acupuncture",[485,486,28],"Trigger Point Pain, Myofascial","Acupuncture",[488],"trigger points, dry-needling, primary dysmenorrhea","2025-05-17",{"date":491,"type":38},"2025-05-21",{"date":493,"type":38},"2024-04-01",{"date":495,"type":22},"2026-12-31",{"name":497,"class":498},"Beijing Hospital","OTHER_GOV",2,{"id":501,"slug":502,"hasResults":12,"nctId":503,"briefTitle":504,"officialTitle":505,"acronym":4,"eligibilityCriteria":506,"healthyVolunteers":12,"sex":18,"minAge":507,"maxAge":508,"enrollmentInfo":509,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":23,"phases":511,"briefSummary":512,"conditions":513,"keywords":4,"overallStatus":119,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":514,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":515,"startDateStruct":517,"completionDateStruct":519,"leadSponsor":521,"locationsCount":77},"100592008","effect-of-virtual-reality-on-prostaglandin-levels-in-adolescent-females-with-primary-dysmenorrhea-100592008","NCT06987838","Effect of Virtual Reality on Prostaglandin Levels in Adolescent Females With Primary Dysmenorrhea","Effect of Virtual Reality on Prostaglandin Levels in Adolescent Females With Primary Dysmenorrhea: A Randomized Controlled Trial","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Age 17- 21 years old.\n* The body mass index (BMI) \\\u003C 30 kg\u002Fm2.\n* Unmarried females.\n* Females with dysmenorrhea pain.\n* Females with regular menstrual cycles.\n* Females with normal gynecology.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Have a pathological disease related to reproduction.\n* Students who use analgesic drugs for 3 months\u002F3 menstrual cycles.\n* Students with menstrual pain secondary to diagnosed organic or inflammatory causes.","17 Years","21 Years",{"count":510,"type":22},50,[59],"This study will be conducted to study the effect of virtual reality therapy on prostaglandin levels in adolescent females with primary dysmenorrhea.",[28],"2025-05-16",{"date":516,"type":38},"2025-05-23",{"date":518,"type":22},"2025-05-25",{"date":520,"type":22},"2025-09-01",{"name":522,"class":45},"Benha National University",{"id":524,"slug":525,"hasResults":12,"nctId":526,"briefTitle":527,"officialTitle":528,"acronym":4,"eligibilityCriteria":529,"healthyVolunteers":12,"sex":18,"minAge":19,"maxAge":162,"enrollmentInfo":530,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":23,"phases":532,"briefSummary":533,"conditions":534,"keywords":535,"overallStatus":119,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":537,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":538,"startDateStruct":540,"completionDateStruct":541,"leadSponsor":543,"locationsCount":77},"100582203","different-exercise-training-programs-in-university-students-with-primary-dysmenorrhea-100582203","NCT06860256","Different Exercise Training Programs in University Students with Primary Dysmenorrhea","Comparison of the Effects of Different Exercise Training Programs on Dysmenorrhea Symptoms, Sleep and Quality of Life in University Students with Primary Dysmenorrhea","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Nulliparous female university students aged 18-25 years who volunteered to participate in the study, met the criteria specified in the PD Consensus Guidelines and were diagnosed with PD by a gynecologist\n* Individuals with a body mass index (BMI) between 18-35\n* Individuals with a regular menstrual cycle (28 ± 7 days)\n* Individuals with menstrual pain Visual Analog Scale (VAS) score of 4 cm or higher for the last 6 months\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Gastrointestinal, urogynecologic, autoimmune, psychiatric, neurological diseases or other chronic pain syndromes\n* Having given birth and\u002For being pregnant\n* Intrauterine device users\n* Pelvic surgery patients\n* Taking oral contraceptives or medication, including antidepressants, for at least 6 months before the study\n* Those with a pathological history or ultrasonography result indicating secondary dysmenorrhea\n* Those who use alternative treatment methods and exercise regularly\n* Serious traumatic life events that occurred in the three months prior to the start of the study\n* Communication problems that may interfere with the implementation of assessments and\u002For treatment program",{"count":531,"type":22},90,[59],"Dysmenorrhea is severe lower abdominal pain in women during menstruation. The pain is usually cramping and can radiate to the thighs or lower spine. Lower abdominal pain may be accompanied by vomiting, headache, back pain, diarrhea, fatigue, etc. Depending on the pathophysiology, dysmenorrhea is classified into two types: primary and secondary. Primary dysmenorrhea (PD) is menstrual pain associated with normal ovulatory cycles in the absence of pelvic pathology and a clear physiologic etiology and is most commonly seen in adolescents and young adults. There are numerous studies on PD in the literature, but there is still a lack of studies on which of the non-pharmacologically recommended exercise and other methods is more effective on dysmenorrhea symptoms, sleep and quality of life for individuals with this problem. Different exercise intensities may affect PD symptoms through different mechanisms. Moderate to high intensity exercise may reduce pain by increasing anti-inflammatory cytokines, whereas less intense exercise, such as yoga, affects pain levels by decreasing cortisol levels. The lack of research on which exercise training is more effective in PD individuals was considered as a limitation. In the light of this information, the aim of the investigators study is to compare the effects of different training techniques on dysmenorrhea symptoms, sleep and quality of life in PD treatment and to present the preferability of these techniques based on evidence.",[416,28],[256,536],"exercises","2025-02-28",{"date":539,"type":38},"2025-03-06",{"date":424,"type":22},{"date":542,"type":22},"2025-10-25",{"name":544,"class":45},"Hasan Kalyoncu University",{"id":546,"slug":547,"hasResults":12,"nctId":548,"briefTitle":549,"officialTitle":549,"acronym":4,"eligibilityCriteria":550,"healthyVolunteers":12,"sex":18,"minAge":55,"maxAge":551,"enrollmentInfo":552,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":301,"phases":4,"briefSummary":554,"conditions":555,"keywords":4,"overallStatus":119,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":556,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":557,"startDateStruct":559,"completionDateStruct":561,"leadSponsor":563,"locationsCount":77},"100577813","pelvic-floor-muscle-activity-in-primary-dysmenorrhea-100577813","NCT06803173","Pelvic Floor Muscle Activity in Primary Dysmenorrhea","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* They should be virgin, healthy female physiotherapy students with PD.\n* They have regular menstruation (3-8 days in duration, with 21-35 days in between).\n* Their ages will range from 18 to 25 years old.\n* Their body mass index (BMI) will range from 18 to 24.9 kg\u002Fm2.\n* Their waist-to-hip ratio will be less than 0.8.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Any urological or gynecological disorders in the previous 12 weeks (e.g., endometriosis, fibroids).\n* Fibromyalgia.\n* Severe psychiatric or psychological disorders.\n* Those who had taken analgesics in the 12 hours before the assessment.\n* Abdominal or pelvic surgery within the past six months.","24 Years",{"count":553,"type":22},77,"This study will be conducted to assess the pelvic floor muscle (PFM) activity in primary dysmenorrhea (PD).",[28],"2025-01-27",{"date":558,"type":38},"2025-01-31",{"date":560,"type":22},"2025-02-01",{"date":562,"type":22},"2025-04-15",{"name":357,"class":45},{"id":565,"slug":566,"hasResults":12,"nctId":567,"briefTitle":568,"officialTitle":568,"acronym":569,"eligibilityCriteria":570,"healthyVolunteers":12,"sex":18,"minAge":19,"maxAge":571,"enrollmentInfo":572,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":23,"phases":574,"briefSummary":575,"conditions":576,"keywords":577,"overallStatus":119,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":556,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":581,"startDateStruct":583,"completionDateStruct":584,"leadSponsor":586,"locationsCount":4},"100577913","effect-of-aerobic-exercise-on-clinical-symptoms-during-the-ovarian-cycle-100577913","NCT06804473","Effect of Aerobic Exercise on Clinical Symptoms During the Ovarian Cycle","OVARIANEXERCYC","Inclusion Criteria\n\n* Age between 18 and 26 years.\n* Sedentary lifestyle.\n* Body Mass Index (BMI) between 18.5 and 26 kg\u002Fm².\n* Regular menstrual cycle (24-38 days).\n* Menstrual pain intensity ≥ 4 mm on the Visual Analog Scale (VAS).\n* Presence of anxiety or stress.\n\nExclusion Criteria\n\n* Pregnancy or breastfeeding within the last 3 months.\n* Amenorrhea.\n* Use of oral contraceptives in the last 3 months.\n* Presence of an intrauterine device (IUD).\n* Regular alcohol consumption.\n* Active smoking.\n* Chronic endocrine, digestive, neurological, or uncontrolled cardiovascular diseases, and\u002For psychiatric disorders.\n* Any medical diagnosis contraindicating physical exercise.","26 Years",{"count":573,"type":22},44,[59],"This study aims to evaluate the effects of moderate-to-high intensity aerobic exercise on primary dysmenorrhea, a common condition characterized by painful menstrual cramps.\n\nThe study will involve women diagnosed with primary dysmenorrhea, who will be randomly assigned to one of two groups:\n\nExperimental Group: Participants will perform a supervised aerobic exercise program tailored to their fitness level.\n\nControl Group: Participants will continue their usual care without any additional interventions.\n\nThe study will run from February 2025 to April 2025 in Madrid, Spain.
