The experimental group received aromatherapy containing essential oils of lavender (Lavandula officinalis), clary sage (Salvia sclarea,), and rose (Rosa centifolia,) daily beginning 1 week before the start of menstruation and ending the first day of menstruation. The aromatherapy consisted of 2 drops of lavender oil, 1 drop of clary sage oil, and 1 drop of rose oil mixed with 5 ml of a carrier of sweet almond oil.

Subjects in the experimental group received 15 minutes of aromatherapy provided in the form of abdominal massage in a quiet room. The placebo group received 15 minutes of abdominal massage using only almond oil in the same setting and for the same duration as the experimental group. The control group received no therapy. All subjects continued their usual routine and reported the 避孕 menstrual cramp intensity and dysmenorrhea severity assessments on the first and second days of menstruation. None of the subjects reported adverse side effects during the trial.

The intensity of menstrual cramps on both the first and second days of menstruation was significantly lower by a little more that 50% in the aromatherapy group than in the placebo group or the control group.
