Summary

The goal of this crossover study is to assessed the treatment efficacy of posterior tibia nerve neuroprolotherapy on dysmenorrhea. The primary outcome is the improvement of Visual Analogue Scale. The main question it aims to answer is:

•Could the posterior tibial nerve neuroprolotherapy alleviate the pain of dysmenorrhea.

Participants will be randomly allocated into two groups, Group-1 will receive neuroprolotherapy in the first 2 menstrual cycles followed by oral acetaminophen(500mg) for the subsequent 2 menstrual cycles. Group02 will received oral acetaminophen(500mg) in initial 2 menstrual cycles, followed by receiving neuroprolotherapy for the subsequent 2 menstrual cycles.
