NCT ID NCT07457957
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a mobile app that tracks periods and teaches about menstrual health can improve quality of life for teens with painful or heavy periods. About 874 adolescents who have started their periods and speak Dutch, English, Turkish, or Moroccan-Arabic will use the app or receive standard care. The main goal is to see if the app helps them feel better and manage their symptoms more effectively.
