Aim: to assess the effect of abdominal stretching exercise on the reduction of intensity of dysmenorrhea in adolescent girl students at the State Senior High School. Method: This study was a quasi-experiment using a pretest-posttest research design with a total of the study samples were 40 respondents by purposive sampling technique. Assessment of the effect of abdominal stretching exercise was carried out before and after 8 abdominal stretching exercise trials. The gathered data were processed and analyzed using the paired samples t-test using IBM SPSS statistical software, version 26. Results of the present study demonstrated a significant effect of abdominal stretching exercise on the reduction of dysmenorrheal intensity (P < 0.05). Discussion The effects of high-intensity exercise on progesterone, prostaglandin metabolites (13,14-dihydro-15-keto-prostaglandin F2 alpha (KDPGF2α), TNF-α, and pain intensity were found to be increased in progesterone and decreased KDPGF2α, TNF-α, and pain intensity after exercise high intensity is relative without exercise. The mechanisms underlying high-intensity exercise-induced analgesia use hormones (progesterone) and cytokine-mediated mechanisms to reduce pain associated with primary dysmenorrhea. Conclusion: abdominal stretching exercise significantly reduced the intensity of primary dysmenorrhea in adolescent girl students. Therefore, abdominal stretching exercise is beneficial to be used as an alternative method in reducing intensity of dysmenorrhea in adolescent girls.

This literature study aimed to identify the effectiveness of exercise in reducing pain thresholds in adolescents with dysmenorrhea. A literature search on Pubmed, Research Gate, ScienceDirect, and Proquest, was conducted from March to June 2022. Stretching, Zumba, FITT, Yoga, Aerobics, and Physical activity were the exercises found in the journal, and the study population was devoted to adolescents. The research design was a Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) and Quasi-Experiment. The pain scale in the journal used the Visual Analogue Scale for Pain (VASP), Visual Analog Scale (VAS), MCGILL Pain, and the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). Of the ten journals that were analyzed, exercise was the most effective in reducing pain threshold when adolescents experienced dysmenorrhea. Of the five kinds of exercise found when analyzing the 10 journals, the most effective exercises reduced pain score is 5.62. Keywords: Dysmenorrhea, exercise, Pain

Background: Dysmenorrhea impacts the quality of life of girls by impeding their ability to concentrate, causing disruptions in their regular physical activity, and having negative effects on their psychosocial well-being. Multiple studies have demonstrated that exercise may alleviate dysmenorrhea. Aim: compare between the effect of Rocking, Stretching, and Kegel exercises on pain intensity of primary dysmenorrhea among university female students. Method: A quasiexperimental design was employed (pretest\posttest). Sitting: Study was done at Faculty of Nursing, Menoufia University. Sample: The study included a purposive sample of 369 female nursing students. Four instruments were utilized; first is a self-administered questionnaire; the second was menstrual cycle assessment sheet; the third was instrument pain intensity assessment sheet, and fourth was dysmenorrhea assessment sheet. Results: Kegel exercise group showed a statistically significant decrease in the mean pain score between pre intervention assessment and 4 weeks' assessment. Kegel exercises had a positive effect on reducing the dysmenorrhea pain intensity among the female students with primary dysmenorrhea more than pelvic rocking exercises and stretching exercises. Pelvic rocking exercise showed a statistically significant decrease in the mean pain score between pre intervention assessment and 4 weeks' assessment. Regarding Stretching exercises, there was a statistically significant decrease in the mean pain score between pre intervention assessment and 4 weeks' assessment Conclusion: Kegel exercises, pelvic rocking exercises, and stretching exercises are effective, and inexpensive non-pharmacological nursing interventions that relive primary dysmenorrhea. Recommendation Kegel exercise should be incorporated into nursing curriculum and practice as a method of relieving primary dysmenorrhea among adolescent female students.
