简要总结
A study to evaluate the impact of Progressive Muscle Relaxation on Menopausal symptoms, Sexual function, sleep quality and overall life quality among menopausal women Objective: The study aims to evaluate the effects of Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR) on menopausal symptoms, sexual function, sleep quality, and overall life quality in menopausal women. Methodology: Participants: Menopausal women were recruited and randomly assigned to either the PMR group or a control group. Intervention: The PMR group underwent regular sessions of Progressive Muscle Relaxation, a technique that involves systematically tensing and relaxing different muscle groups to reduce stress and promote relaxation. Assessments: Menopausal Symptoms: Evaluated using a standardized menopausal symptom checklist. Sexual Function: Assessed through questionnaires designed to measure various aspects of sexual health and function. Sleep Quality: Measured using validated sleep quality scales and self-reported sleep diaries. Overall Life Quality: Assessed with comprehensive quality of life questionnaires that cover physical, emotional, and social well-being. Progressive Muscle Relaxation is an effective technique for alleviating menopausal symptoms, enhancing sexual function, improving sleep quality, and boosting overall life quality among menopausal women. Regular practice of PMR can be a valuable non-pharmacological intervention to support women’s health during menopause.
