Brief Summary

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

The purpose of the study is to assess knee joint position sense, pain and dynamic balance in female with primary dysmenorrhea.

Detailed Description

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

Dysmenorrhea is a common condition that typically occurs on its own rather than as a result of pelvic disease. It affects between 50% and 90% of adolescent girls and women of reproductive age and is a major reason for missed days from school or work.

Among the various menstrual disturbances observed, dysmenorrhea was notably prevalent among adolescents and significantly impacted their daily activities. Early diagnosis and awareness of menstrual issues are crucial, as they not only emphasize the need for health education initiatives but also assist in selecting suitable treatments, thereby reducing the adverse effects of these disturbances on adolescents' lives.

However, there is a significant gap in the literature about the effect of Primary dysmenorrhea on knee joint position sense, pain and dynamic balance in young adult female So this study aims to investigate this effect and provide evidence based information in the field of physical therapy.
