Abstract

Background: DYSMENORRHEA is a common problem in women of reproductive age and despite the current treatments, it still remains a common problem in women's health. This study was done to determine the effect of AROMATHERAPY on pain severity in primary DYSMENORRHEA.Materials and Methods: This randomized clinical trial was done on 108 students with primary DYSMENORRHEA with pain score of 2 and 3 based on the multidimensional spoken criteria. After random allocation, the participants received MASSAGE with almond oil, MASSAGE alone, and MASSAGE with a mixture of lavender and peppermint essential oil a week before menstrual period until the presence of pain in two continuous cycles. During cycles zero, one, and two, the participants recorded the highest level of pain during the first, second, and third days according to the visual analogue scale. Data were analyzed using SPSS software.Results: There was a significant difference in the total of the most pain in days 1, 2, and 3 among the groups (p=0.038). A reduction was observed in MASSAGE and AROMATHERAPY groups (p=0.014). There were significant differences in within group comparisons (p=0.002) for zero and first cycles (p=0.016) and first and second cycles (p=0.002).Conclusion: AROMATHERAPY reduces menstrual pain and considering the prevalence of DYSMENORRHEAl, the low price, and harmless nature of this essence, its application in relieving menstrual cramping and pain is recommended.
