10.22376/ijpbs.2019.10.1.p1-12 Volume 4 Issue 1 2013 (January - March) The aim of our study was to evaluate the effects of Yoga intervention in females suffering from premenstrual tension and premenstrual syndrome. Settings and Design : 32 recently diagnosed females with premenstrual tension patients were recruited for a randomized controlled trial comparing the effects before and after a Yoga program. To evaluate the premenstrual symptoms and severity, a simple scoring system given by WHAQ was used. Symptoms were divided in 3 main categories that were Negative effect, Water retention and Impaired concentration, analyzed before and after the yogic intervention techniques. We used analysis of covariance to compare interventions before and after the Yoga practice. 32 females contributed data to the current analysis (n=32). The result suggest a significant decrease in the negative affect category (p= lessThan 0.00001) and in impaired concentration category (p = lessThan 0.0001). There was also a significant lesser decrease ( P= lessThan 0.001) in water retention category as compare before and after Yoga practice. The result suggest possible benefits for yogic techniques (Asanas, Pranayama and Dhyana) in reducing premenstrual symptoms and preventing suffering from premenstrual tension and syndrome. DR.
