Treatment of Menstrual Discomfort in Young Women and a Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) Program

Abstract

This chapter will cover a theory-based cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) approach for young women's menstrual pain management. This chapter will help people understand menstrual pain management and its potential for improving pain management knowledge and promoting the adoption of wellness-focused coping methods to manage pain in everyday settings. There is substantial evidence for treating mental health issues using cognitive-behavioral techniques and menstrual pain for young women based on this meta-inclusion analysis of RCTs with solid study designs in this chapter.
