Effectiveness of Post Isometric Relaxation Technique Versus Simple Stretching Exercises for Pain and Physical Activity in Young Females With Primary Dysmenorrhea in Peshawar
This randomized controlled trial will compare the effectiveness of Post-Isometric Relaxation (PIR) versus Simple Stretching Exercises (SSE), each combined with standard physiotherapy modalities, for reducing menstrual pain and improving physical activity in young unmarried women with primary dysmenorrhea. Forty-four participants will be randomly assigned (1:1) to receive either PIR or SSE three times per week for eight weeks (24 total sessions). The study will identify which non-pharmacological intervention provides superior benefits for pain relief and daily function.
