Background: Dysmenorrhea is the most common symptom of most menstrual complaints, and has a greater risk of causing disease than any other gynecological complaints. Dysmenorrhea can be accompanied by other symptoms such as sweating, tachycardia, nausea, vomiting, headache, diarrhea and tremors.

The control group (K) was not given the Zumba intervention. Treatment group (P) was given 8-week intervention program with two 60’ sessions per week of Zumba. Data were collected before, during, and after Zumba intervention using a self-administrated dysmenorrhea questionnaire and VAS pain scale.
