Abstract: This protocol describes a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness of core stabilization and breathing exercises in reducing pain and menstrual distress among female university students with primary dysmenorrhea. 50 participants aged 18–25 years will be randomly assigned to either an exercise intervention group or a control group receiving traditional management over a 4-week period. The expected results are a significant reduction in pain intensity and menstrual distress in the intervention group, along with improvements in quality of life and sleep quality compared to controls. These findings aim to support physiotherapy-based interventions as safe and effective strategies for managing primary dysmenorrhea.
