일차성 월경곤란증 정도에 따른 자세 정렬, 균형 및 월경 관련 증상의 비교
The Comparison of Postural Alignment, Balance, and Menstrual-Related Symptoms According to the Severity of Primary Dysmenorrhea
Background: Primary dysmenorrhea, a common menstrual pain condition, is influenced by hormonal changes, including excessive prostaglandin production, that may alter sensory processing and musculoskeletal function. These physiological changes may also affect functions including postural alignment, balance control, and body awareness. Although dysmenorrhea-related symptoms have been extensively studied, research evaluating posture, balance, and body awareness for correlations with menstrual phases or dysmenorrhea severity remains insufficient. We assessed postural alignment, balance, pain intensity, and body awareness according to the severity of primary dysmenorrhea in women with mild and severe primary dysmenorrhea. Methods: Twenty-nine women in their 20s were classified as having mild (n=14) or severe (n=15) dysmenorrhea using the modified Menstrual Distress Questionnaire. Postural alignment, static and dynamic balance, pain intensity, and body awareness were then assessed during pre-menstrual and menstrual phases. Comparisons were made within and between groups. Results: Both groups showed significant changes in postural alignment, staticㆍdynamic balance, and body awareness during menstruation compared to their pre-menstrual phase (p<.05). No significant differences were observed between groups in static/dynamic balance, pain intensity, or body awareness (p>.05). Change in pelvic tilt was significantly greater in the mild dysmenorrhea group (p<.05). Conclusion: Functional changes in posture, balance, and body awareness were observed during menstruation regardless of dysmenorrhea severity. These findings suggest clinical assessments and interventions should emphasize menstrual phase-related physiological changes rather than dysmenorrhea severity alone.
