Abstract :
Dysmenorrhea is menstrual pain or cramps caused by an imbalance of the hormone progesterone in the blood. Dysmenorrhea can be felt in the lower abdomen and can spread to the waist, hips and upper thighs. Dysmenorrhea can be treated with pharmacological and non-pharmacological therapy. One of the managements of dysmenorrhea with nonpharmacological therapy is giving lavender aromatherapy candles. This paper aims to apply the use of lavender aromatherapy candles to young women in reducing dysmenorrhea pain. The method of writing paper uses a case study. The author did lavender aromatherapy candle therapy once a day for three consecutive days. Giving lavender aromatherapy candles is done for 15-30 minutes. The results obtained after treating the client using lavender aromatherapy candle were a decrease in the pain scale from seven (severe pain) to five (moderate pain) and from score four (moderate pain) to one (mild pain). The results of using lavender aromatherapy candles are effective for reducing acute pain of dysmenorrhea in young women. The results of this writing are expected to increase knowledge, especially for young women so they can apply lavender aromatherapy candles as a non-pharmacological alternative to reduce dysmenorrhea pain during menstruation.
