Objectives We aimed to analyze menstrual pain clinical patterns and treatment characteristics in pediatric and adolescent patients under 18 years old treated for menstrual pain at a Korean medicine hospital. Methods We analyzed the medical records of pediatric and adolescent patients under 18, treated for menstrual pain from January 1, 2018, to December 31, 2023. Results A total of 88 participants were included in the study, with a mean age of 15.3 ± 1.5 years. The most common diagnosis was unspecified dysmenorrhea. Among the 42 participants with recorded pain scores, the mean Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) for dysmenorrhea was 7.4 ± 1.0. Patients who received two or more treatments had an average of 6.3 ± 5.0 clinic visits. Treatment methods included herbal medicine, acupuncture, moxibustion, pharmacopuncture, and electroacupuncture, in descending order of frequency. Conclusions It is necessary to analyze the clinical characteristics and status of adolescent dysmenorrhea patients in more Korean medical institutions. Additionally, research and promotion of Korean medicine treatments for adolescent dysmenorrhea are needed.
