Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study is to examine the effects of an eight-week calisthenic home exercise program on premenstrual symptoms, pain and sleep quality in young women.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The study was conducted on 30 volunteers who met the inclusion criteria among female students studying at Haliç University Faculty of Health Sciences. The "Premenstrual Syndrome Scale (PMSS)" was used to assess the individuals' premenstrual symptoms; the "Visual Analog Scale (VAS)" was used to assess pain for each of the abdominal, lumbar and general body pain; and the "Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI)" was used to assess sleep quality. Then, the participants were randomly divided into two groups as "Group 1: Control group (n=15)" and "Group 2: - Calisthenic home exercise group (n=15)". Participants in the first group were not subjected to any intervention and were asked not to participate in any exercise program for eight weeks. Participants in the second group were informed about calisthenic home exercise programs face to face and were asked to perform these exercises as home exercises for eight weeks. At the end of the treatment process, participants' PMSS, VAS and PSQI scores were re-evaluated.Statistical analysis will be performed with SPSS 24.0 program. If the data is parametric, paired sample t-test will be used for within-group evaluation; independent sample t-test will be used for between-group evaluation. If the data is non-parametric, Wilson test will be used for within-group evaluation and Mann Whitney U test will be used for between-group evaluation.
