Abstract

This study investigated the effect of twelve-week jogging exercise on premenstrual syndrome and primary dysmenorrhea among adolescents in selected schools in Kano State Nigeria. Three research questions one major hypothesis and three sub hypotheses were formulated to guild the study. Repeated measure research design was used for the study. The population of the study comprise of 551255 female students (both boarding and day students) with premenstrual syndrome and primary dysmenorrhea in the 4 selected schools which were selected randomly. The sample size used for this study was 79 students. A purposive sampling technique of homogeneous type was used to select the sample for the study. In which 20 students were selected from each school using a simple questionnaire of YES and NO. YES for those with premenstrual syndrome and primary dysmenorrhea and NO for those without premenstrual syndrome and primary dysmenorrhea. Only 79 of those who choose YES were selected for the study. Participants were evaluated for pain pre –test 0th week and subsequently following intervention posttest with aerobic exercise (jogging) at 6th and 12th week three times a week each week. The evaluation was conducted using Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Similarly, the McGrill Quality of Life Questionnaire (MQLQ) was administered to determine participants’ quality of life. The data obtained was analyzed using repeated measure ANOVA and Scheffe’s post -hoc to reveal the statistical significant effect. The results indicated statistical significant effect after 0th, 6th and 12th week of jogging exercise programme F (2, 76) =3.11 ;( P<0.05). It was therefore concluded that jogging exercise had effect on premenstrual syndrome F(2, 76)=3.11:(P<0.05) and primary dysmenorrhea F(2, 76)=3.11;(P<0.05) and subsequently on the quality of life of the adolescent girls F(2, 76)=3.11;(P<0.05).
