The population of the cross-sectional and descriptive study consisted of midwifery students (N=280) studying at a public university. Volunteer (n=240) participants who met the sampling study criteria were recruited.Data were collected with the Descriptive Information Form, the VAS scale, and the Menstrual Symptom Severity Scale (MSSS). The mean age of the students was 19.92±1.51 and the mean menstrual period was 5.68±1.48 days. The prevalence of dysmenorrhea was 42.1%, the mean pain severity in the VAS for dysmenorrhea was 5.04±3.01, and the mean MSSS score was 21.16±11.25.

It was determined that applying heat did not significantly affect the severity (χ2=0.137,p=1.000), duration (χ2=2.020,p=0.199) and frequency (χ2=0.854, p=0.653) of the pain. Bath type had a significant effect on post-application pain severity (χ2=12.072,p=0.002) in those who preferred to cope with the bathing method.
