Yoga for Period Pain in Young Women
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether a structured yoga exercise program can reduce menstrual cramps (period pain) in healthy young women aged 18–25. If yoga helps, it could offer a natural way to manage pain without medication.
