简要总结
This research was planned as a randomized controlled experimental study in order to reduce premenstrual syndrome symptoms of women with premenstrual syndrome.
详细描述
Occurs in the luteal phase and decreases or declines significantly with the onset of menstruation; physical such as breast tenderness, headache, bloating; Premenstrual syndrome is a health problem with more than 150 psychological and behavioral symptoms such as anger outbursts, irritability, anxiety, mood fluctuations, sleep and eating disorders.
Symptoms experienced during the premenstrual period lead to results such as mood/affective disorder in women, deterioration in daily life activities and social relations, an increase in negative health behaviors, as well as low academic performance in students, decreased participation in classes, getting low grades in exams, and not showing up for exams.Since its etiology is unclear, no specific treatment method can be found, and non-pharmacological therapies such as stress control, lifestyle changes, exercise and complementary therapies such as evening primrose oil, chasteberry and acupuncture are applied in its management.
Psychiatrist Carl Gustav Jung discovered the psychic healing transformations created by mandala painting, one of the art therapy methods, through his own experience and that of his patients.
Various studies have determined that mandala coloring improves physical and psychological symptoms, but no studies have been conducted with PMS.
