Green coconut water was found to significantly reduce dysmenorrhea pain among adolescent girls.
The researchers used a Quasi Experiment methodology for this study, involving a pretest-posttest design with an added control group. The research team analysed the data with the Paired T-Test, which measured the difference in dysmenorrhea pain scales within a single group, both before and after the administration of green coconut water. An additional test, the Independent T-Test, was utilised to observe and evaluate the difference between groups.
After applying green coconut water, the results revealed a noticeable difference in the dysmenorrhea pain scale among the tested adolescent girls. Green coconut water showed a clear impact in reducing the dysmenorrhea pain, solidifying its potential to serve as a traditional treatment alternative for adolescent girls suffering from dysmenorrhea in the Berekah village of the Sukabumi district.
