INTERVENTION: Acupuncture Auriculotherapy Dysmenorrhea Other The experimental protocols used in the present study were: The volunteers of the experimental group (sympathetic) received applications for 2 months and 3 weeks, twice a week for 20 minutes, in the following acupoints: sympathetic (analgesic, antipyretic, and general regulator of degenerative diseases); kidney (function on the kidney, gonads, genitals, bones, cramps, gynecological disorders); shen men (sedative, tranquilizer, immune function); ovary (action on the genitals, gynecological, anthological and sexuality disorders); uterus (function on genitals, gynecological and sexual disorders) and endocrine (action in gynecological and circulatory disorders).

For both controlled groups (sympathetic and liver), the applications were performed with pieces of micropore at the respective points, simulating auricular therapy applications. For the accomplishment of the protocols studied, the volunteers were placed in a seated position, with the intention of performing the auricular inspection, then the asepsis procedure was performed in the auricular pavilion, through the use of alcohol at 70%, then they were inserted sterile stainless steel needles with standard size (0.25x0.15 mm), unilaterally in the right ear, to which they were inserted with the aid of a guide tube. After the 22 applications.There were 4 groups, three groups with CONDITION: Colic Fertile Period Menstruation Menstruation, Colic, Fertile Period ; Menstruation ; Colic ; Fertile Period PRIMARY OUTCOME: To evaluate the benefits of Auriculotherapy in relation to the reduction of the level of pain and the characteristics of pain, quality of life, sexual function and personal satisfaction in women with primary dysmenorrhoea.; Significant pain reduction and changes in pain characteristics were observed as well as personal satisfaction in both intervention groups, where (P = <0.5) presented significant, totally significant and extremely significant results.; SECONDARY OUTCOME: Now I have had changes in relation to function and sexual life of personal activities. The present study was able to achieve its objective in relation to auriculotherapy influences in women with primary dysmenorrhea. ; INCLUSION CRITERIA: The study included women with sedentary ages ranging from 18 to 25 years old with PD diagnosis; according to the nondigorous PD guideline; with a history of a regular menstrual cycle (cycle of 27 to 32 days); non‐smoker; with availability of time to perform Auriculotherapy applications; not to perform other physiotherapeutic treatments; and those who accepted to participate in the research by signing the Informed Consent Term (TCLE).
