• Mean age of the students was 20.23 ± 1.59 years (range 17– 25).
Frequency of dysmenorrhea was determined to be 69.0% (n = 359).
Frequency of dysmenorrhea was higher in smokers, those with
menstrual irregularity, those who use drugs for menstrual

most frequent symptoms in those having dysmenorrhea history
were weakness (59.6%), fatigue (58.5%) and breast tenderness
(45.4%), respectively. Sleep quality was found to be poorer in the
students having a history of dysmenorrhea (p < 0.05).
