Lottery method is a type of simple random sampling. In this method, each participant of the trial is assigned a unique number. In the next step these numbers are written on separate cards which are physically similar in shape, size, color etc. 45 cards were used. Then they are placed in a basket and thoroughly mixed. In the last step the slips are taken out randomly without looking at them and are placed into two sets randomly. Total of 38 cards were taken out, 19 participants in each group, Blinding description: The blinding of patients means that the patients did not know which treatment group are they allocated. This blinding is achieved by concealment. The allocation sequence is concealed in envelopes which were numbered serially, and letter envelopes are opened only after all pre-intervention assessments of the participants have been completed. This is done to avoid biasness. N/A Primary dysmenorrhea.
