• 1 other identifier: Questionnaire
• Study Type: observational
• Target: 500
• Locations: 0 countries
• Sites: N/A

Brief Summary

There is a correlation between the effect of lifestyle and prevalence and severity of primary dysmenorrhea. We will collect data through an online questionnaire. This study is an attempt to elaborate on and clarify the prevalence and severity of primary dysmenorrhea in Jordan. This study has already been applied to other target populations therefore the purpose of this study is to establish solid numbers of dysmenorrhea prevalence in Jordan among the age group 18-25 and to exhibit a clear correlation between the lifestyle habits adopted by individuals and the intensity of dysmenorrhea present. The lifestyle factors chosen include body mass index (BMI), smoking, early menarche, prolonged menstrual flow and psychological disturbances. The significance of forming this relationship is to help raise awareness among the young generation of Jordanian women to improve on their adopted lifestyle habits in order to eventually lead to lower numbers of morbidity associated with dysmenorrhea
