• Conditions: Women's Health: Endometriosis
• Interventions: Other: dual task

• Registration Number: NCT03586804
• Lead Sponsor: Hacettepe University

Brief Summary

The study was planned with the aim of comparison of postural sway responses at menstrual cycles in women with and without the dysmenorrheal syndrome.

Women will stand on a postural sway evaluation system on the first day of the menstrual cycles and a well-being day which they will select. Every participant will be evaluated same tool. They will be assessed for three times at every session: 1st evaluation will be performed at the normal standing position. 2nd evaluation will be performed at the normal standing position while individuals saying the numbers from 200 to 1. 3rd evaluation will be performed at the normal standing position while individuals holding the mini blocks on their hands.
