Abstract :
OBJECTIVES
The objective of this paper was to examine the relationship between primary dysmenorrhea and anxiety in nulliparous females.

Twenty–five postmenarcheal females who were within the age of 18–25 years were found eligible to participate in the study.
METHOD USED:

The results were obtained by using Karl Pearson Correlation in between women’s health questionnaire (mean value–8.6 and standard deviation +–3.01) and Hamilton anxiety questionnaire (mean value–17.08 and standard deviation +–9.75). The r value for WHQ and HAM–A came out to be 0.687 with P value of 0.00 which implicates the result to be significantly positive.
