Her symptoms make her difficult to concentrate at work. She feels tired most of the day, due to lack of sleep and also she expressed that she is not able to reproduce in her future. She needs effective treatment but she is confused about the right therapy for her symptoms. She is also anxious about her irregular menstruation and the effect of complementary therapy (yoga therapy). Her friends suggested that complementary therapy could be useful. She has put on 6 Kg weight (92 to 98kgs) within 4 months. She was experiencing of pain in lower abdomen, low back pain and intolerant pain in both the thighs and knees. Pain character was twisting and sharp over two days during menstruation, she has attended 2 weeks yoga class, there after she started practicing yoga since six months with the duration of 15 - 30 mts twice in a day, such as Baddhakonasana (Butterfly Pose), Viparita Karani (Legs Up the Wall Pose and on lying pose), Bhujangasana, Pranayma, Dhanurasana, Paschimottanasana,Vajrasana and yoga nidtra.
