💡RESEARCH SPOTLIGH💡

Impact of Dysmenorrhea on Academic Performance Among Haramaya University Undergraduate Regular Students, Eastern Ethiopia.

This isn't my usual post but I came across this research and thought that it would be good to share 😊

Dysmenorrhea is another term for menstrual cramps or period pain that tends to occur in the lower abdomen of menstruating women 🩸

In this study pain intensity & premenstrual syndrome (PMS) was significantly associated with impact of dysmenorrhoea on academic performance 📚

The various impacts that female students reported on their academic performance included:

•Unable to study for an exam
•Loss of class concentration
•Inability to do homework
•Loss of class participation

This research really highlights the impact of PMS & dysmenorrhea on young women’s education which is sad because so much can be done to help!

Ladies don’t forget how strong you are dealing with this each month! 💪🏼

Follow to hear some top tips on tackling PMS & dysmenorrhea.

For those with PMS/PMDD thinking about cooking in their luteal phase when pain and exhaustion hits can be overwhelming to say the least. If this sounds like you then check out this ⬇️

Batch cook your meals, yes I know it may sound like a pain but for me batch cooking my meals before my luteal phase begins is one of my favourite Let me tell you why I am so obsessed 😂

Firstly it means when I get home from work (often spent suffering with brain fog) I don't have to think too much about what I am cooking - the decision has already been made previously and I'm very thankful for that!

Secondly, when abdominal or back pain starts I don't have to 'slave over a hot stove' instead reheating a pre-made meal keeps things quick and simple 🙏🏼

Thirdly, batch cooking enables me to make sure I am getting the nutrients I need at this time for example iron & magnesium rich foods to help prepare my body for menstruation and ease dysmenorrhoea 🥦

I would love to know if anyone else has any additional luteal life hacks drop a comment below or send me a DM 😊

Delighted to have been on the local organising committee for Irish Section 31st Annual Postgraduate Conference, hosted by alongside Lauren Devine and Shane Gordon.

For many (myself included) it was the first opportunity to present our PhD research 🙌🏼

A great experience to meet & network with students across the Island of Ireland 🍀

Back to the grind to collate some results for the next conference 👩🏼‍💼

Now I have a bit more time on my hands I’m also looking forward to sharing more nutrition tips & my PhD journey on this page 🎉
