Abstract: Primary Dysmenorrhoea is a common condition in young women causing pain in the lower abdomen , back and lower legs. This study aimed to examine how pain levels, fear of movement, and physical activity are related in young women who suffer from primary dysmenorrhoea. The study involved 63 college students aged 18-25 years, who were divided into two groups based on their pain levels: Group-1 (N=30) had pain less than 5 and Group-2 (N=33) had pain more than 5. The Tampa scale of kinesiophobia was used to measure their fear of movement and the International physical activity questionnaire (IPAQ) was used to measure their physical activity levels. The results showed that there was a significant difference in fear of movement between the two groups, with Group-2 having higher fear of movement than Group-1 (t = -2.05, P = 0.04). However, there was no significant difference in physical activity levels between the two groups. The results also showed that pain and fear of movement were positively correlated (P = 0.05), meaning that higher pain was associated with higher fear of movement. However, there was no significant correlation between fear of movement and physical activity (P = 0.254) or between pain and physical activity (P = 0.730).
