Please correct this for me.. 5. Conclusion and Recommendation 5.1 Conclusion The prevalence of dysmenorrhoea was high (79.8%) among University students of Peradeniya and there was a significantly different between prevalence of dysmenorrhoea among students of different faculties. Students in Science faculty reported to have highest prevalence of dysmenorrhoea while Dental faculty students reported to have the lowest prevalence. None of Scio-demographic and menstrual characteristics were not associated with dysmenorrhoea except family history. But family history was not a risk factor for dysmenorrhoea. However, in this study none of risk factors were found for the study population. The study had found significant difference between pain category and students of different faculties. Most of AHS students were suffered with severe grade pain while most of Medical students were suffered with mild grade pain. Most students (66.0%) had used pharmacological and non pharmacological methods together to manage dysmenorrhoea. Among the students who used pharmacological methods taking OTC pain killers (67.6%) and drinking herbal remedies (25.5%) were more common. Prolong sleep (80.5%) and drinking warm beverages (50.3%) were common methods in non-pharmacological management. A total of 5% of students were doing nothing about their condition and only 10.2% sought medical advice during menstruation to manage dysmenorrhoea. And also the study found pain relief methods were vary significantly among students in different faculties. A total of 19.2% students were completely relieved from pain after management of dysmenorrhoea. It’s nearly 1/5 of whole dysmenorrhoeal population. And 80.8% in whole dysmenorrhoeal population still suffer with any grade of pain. Medical students were able to manage their dysmenorrhoea effectively when comparing other students. A number of 38.5% Medical students reported to have no pain after management of dysmenorrhoea. Menstrual related education gain by their faculty would have a positive impact in improving the understanding of the problem and knowledge in management of dysmenorrhoea effectively. Which may leads to a positive attitude towards menstrual related matters. 5.2 Recommendation The study had found the prevalence of dysmenorrhoea is high among University students of Perdeniya and its significantly difference among faculties. Also study had found there was a relation between pain category and faculty of students. The reason for this may be academic stress among students. But there were none of researches to support that fact. Further more research is needed to find out any relationship between dysmenorrhoea and academic stress among these students. The factors that associated with dysmenorrhoea are basically Scio-demographics, menstrual, medical and habits. But this study only examines the some Scio-demographics and some menstrual characteristics only. Another research needs to find out the association between prevalence of dysmenorrhoea with medical characteristics and habits. The study did not explore the reasons for variation in coping methods among students. The reason for this variation may be because menstrual related knowledge that they gained by their faculty, influence of family, cultural myth believes, misperception and negative attitudes towards dysmenorrhoea could have affected to their pain relief strategies. Also study did not explore whether the knowledge gain by their faculty has a association between prevalence of dysmenorrhoea. The study had found the most vulnerable groups for dysmenorrhoea, so that awareness program can arrange early to those students who are at risk in suffering with dysmenorrhoea to help them overcome with problems. Awareness program to address the students regarding, physiological aspect of problem, underline causes, life time and dietary modification and effective treatment methods for dysmenorrhoea. Emotional and psychological factors that may affect to dysmenorrhoea may also need to be attended. Workshops regarding women’s health and peer-to-peer discussions may helpful them to understand about the problem and to ignore the cultural myth believes, misperception. That will help them to increase the positive attitudes towards menstrual related matters like dysmenorrhoea.
