“…Yoga has demonstrated potential in lowering menstruation pain and related symptoms because of its diverse approach, which includes bodily poses, breathing techniques, and meditation (Tsai, 2016). Careful investigation contributes to the scientific validation of these reported advantages, giving medical practitioners a strong basis on which to suggest yoga as an adjunctive or alternative therapy (Novryanthi & Nurhayati, 2021), (Nag, 2013). Furthermore, knowing the precise processes via which yoga works to promote well-being might help to customise interventions and improve the creation of individualised treatment programmes (Gupta, 2021).…”

Objective: Despite the historical marginalisation of women and the progress made in securing their legal rights, primary dysmenorrhea continues to present difficulties that impact women's physical and emotional health. This meta-analysis investigates yoga's effectiveness as a non-pharmacological treatment for primary dysmenorrhea. Method: A systematic review utilising Shodhganga, Research Gate, and PubMed was carried out in accordance with PRISMA standards on studies published from 2010 to 2023. Primary dysmenorrhea and effective yoga therapies were the main inclusion criteria. Studies that were not experimental or that dealt with other forms of dysmenorrhea were not included.Results: Twenty studies are included in the meta-analysis, which highlights yoga's effectiveness in easing the symptoms of primary dysmenorrhea. Across a wide range of demographics, asanas, pranayamas, and meditation dramatically reduce menstruation discomfort and enhance general wellbeing. Discussion: Yoga has been shown to have a persistent good impact on general development, stress levels, and pain reduction. As a non-pharmacological intervention, it is a safe and effective choice for managing primary dysmenorrhea. The utilisation of an Android app for yoga relaxation and the possibility of increasing beta-endorphin levels through a yoga-murottal intervention are noteworthy findings. Conclusion: Yoga is a valuable, all-encompassing, and reasonably priced treatment for primary dysmenorrhea since it treats the mental and physical components of the condition. The evidence base has to be strengthened by larger, more diversified populations and more research using standardised procedures. For the reduction of menstruation discomfort, yoga provides a specialised and scientifically supported approach.
