Abstract

Background: Dysmenorrhea is seen in nearly 5% of women with regular menstruation. In this regard, different methods have been proposed for treatment of dysmenorrhea, and drugs with fewer side effects are preferred. Hence, this study was done to detect the effect of echinophora- platyloba on primary dysmenorrhea.Materials and Methods: In a single-blind clinical trial, 60 students with primary dysmenorrhea were evaluated at Shahr-e-Kord University of Medical Sciences. The students were randomly divided into two groups of 30 each: ECHINOPHORA-PLATYLOBA extract and PLACEBO. Data collection was done through visual analogue scale for detecting the intensity of pain. At the end of first and second months after treatment, the intensity of pain was determined in the two groups and compared with that before the intervention. Eventually, the data were analyzed through Chi square, t-test and Mann-Whitney test.Results: The means of dysmenorrhea severity scores two months before administering the drug in ECHINOPHORA-PLATYLOBA and PLACEBO groups were 8.46±2.75 and 8.80±2.53, respectively. Here the difference was not significant; however, after administering the drug, the mean scores in intervention and non-intervention groups were 3.41±1.12 and 7.82±2.60, respectively, which indicated a significant difference between the two groups (p<0.001).Conclusion: Both ECHINOPHORA-PLATYLOBA extract and the PLACEBO could reduce the severity of dysmenorrhea during the treatment, yet the effect of ECHINOPHORA-PLATYLOBA was much greater than the PLACEBO. Thus, the use of ECHINOPHORA-PLATYLOBA extract is suggested in treatment of dysmenorrhea.
