Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

Virtual Reality

Virtual Reality: A 20-minute relaxation video will be presented using a virtual reality (VR) headset. Participants will receive the intervention once daily for three consecutive days during the first three days of menstruation. The VR environment is designed to provide an immersive visual and auditory experience and to direct participants' attention away from menstrual pain.

Study summary

Dysmenorrhea, or painful menstrual periods, is a common condition that can affect daily activities and quality of life. This study aims to evaluate whether using virtual reality (VR) can reduce pain and anxiety in women with primary dysmenorrhea.

Participants will be randomly assigned to either a VR group or a 2D video group. Participants in the VR group will watch a relaxing virtual environment using a VR headset for 20 minutes once a day for three consecutive days. Participants in the 2D video group will watch the same content for the same duration and frequency using a 2D screen, such as a phone, tablet, or computer.

Pain intensity and anxiety levels will be assessed before and after each session during the three-day intervention. The study will compare changes in pain and anxiety between the two groups to evaluate the effect of VR in women with primary dysmenorrhea.

Primary outcome measure(s)

  • Visual Analog Scale (VAS) — 1-3. days
    This is used to quantify certain values that cannot be measured numerically. The two extremes of the parameter being evaluated are marked at either end of a 100 mm line, and the patient is asked to indicate their current status on this line by drawing a mark, placing a dot, or pointing. For pain assessment, "no pain" is written at one end and "severe pain" at the other; the patient then marks their current pain level on the line. The distance from the "no pain" end to the patient's mark represents the level of pain. Evaluation is performed by calculating the mean of the values obtained from the patients.
