This experimental study evaluated the impact of listening to Murottal Qur’an on menstrual pain levels among 32 nursing students at Universitas Nahdlatul Ulama Surabaya. Using a pre-test post-test design with simple random sampling, participants were divided into intervention and control groups, with pain intensity measured via Visual Analog Scale. The results indicated that the intervention group experienced significantly lower pain scores both compared to their baseline and relative to the control group. While the authors note that untreated primary dysmenorrhea can be associated with emerging symptoms of endometriosis, the research itself focuses solely on pain reduction through auditory therapy. Relevance to endometriosis: listed as one indication for GnRH antagonists, though the paper's main focus is uterine fibroids.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Background: Primary dysmenorrhea is menstrual pain that is found without significant abnormalities in genital organs. More than 50% of women experience primary dysmenorrhea and 15% experience severe pain. Most women never have their primary dysmenorrhea examined by a doctor or midwife, arguing that this is something natural, even if this condition is left unchecked, symptoms of endometriosis will emerge that can affect women's fertility. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of Murottal Qur’an on menstrual pain in nursing students of UNUSA. Methods: This study was an experimental research approach with pre-test post-test design at UNUSA. Research subjects of this study was recruited using simple random sampling who was included inclusion criteria. Research subjects in this study was of 32 students who were then divided into two groups, 16 students into intervention group and 16 students into control group. Data were collected by using observation with VAS. Data were analyzed by using sign test and Mann-Whitney U test. Results: The results showed that: 1) Score of VAS in intervention group post testwas less than pre test (p= 0,000), 2) Score of VAS in intervention group was less than control group (p= 0,006). Conclusion: Murottal Qur’an could reduce menstrual pain in nursing student of UNUSA. Further research, is expected that Murottal Qur'an can be compared with music therapy to reduce menstrual pain.
