Perimenopausal Women

The aim of this study was to determine contraceptive method use in perimenopausal women. This cross-sectional study was carried out in XXXXXXXXXXX Hospital between 6 June and 7 September in 2016. The study sample included 243 women selected through random sampling, a non-probability sampling. Data were collected with a questionnaire created by the researchers in light of the literature. The analysis of the data obtained from the research was carried out in the SPSS 20.0 package program. Percentage ratios, arithmetic mean and standard deviation, chi square test have been used in analysis of data. The mean age of the women was 47.7±3.4 years. At the time of the study, 77.4% of the women were using a contraceptive method, but 22.6% of the women were not using any contraceptive methods. The most frequent method was intrauterine device at the rate of 25.1%. Twenty-three-point nine percent of the women had tubal ligation and 14.8% of the women were using withdrawal. Formerly, the most frequently used modern contraceptive method had been contraceptive pills at the rate of 53.8%. The second most frequent former method had been male condom at the rate of 46.5% and the third most frequent former method had been copper intrauterine device at the rate of 32.9%. Nine-point nine percent of the women had not used any contraceptive methods previously. Fifty-four-point three percent of the women did not know how long they should use a contraceptive method after their periods ended due to menopause. The decreased rate of contraceptive use and not knowing how long contraceptives should be used in perimenopausal women reveal an unfulfilled need for counseling in these women. It can be recommended that perimenopausal women should be provided counseling appropriate for their age and needs. ​Extended English summary is in the end of Full Text PDF (TURKISH) file.   Özet Bu araştırmanın amacı perimenopozal dönemdeki kadınların kontraseptif yöntem kullanım durumlarını belirlemektir. Kesitsel tipteki bu çalışma XXXXXXXXXXX Hastanesi’nde 06/06/2016 ile 07/09/2016 tarihleri arasında yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın örneklemini 243 kadın oluşturmuş ve örnekleme alınacak kadınları belirlemede olasılıksız örnekleme yöntemlerinden gelişigüzel örnekleme yöntemi seçilmiştir. Araştırma verileri, araştırmacılar tarafından literatüre uygun elde edilen soru formu ile toplanmıştır. Verilerin analizi SPSS 20,0 paket programında gerçekleştirilmiştir. Verilerin analizinde, yüzdelik oranlar, aritmetik ortalama, standart sapma, ve Ki kare testi kullanılmıştır. Kadınların yaş ortalamaları 47,7±3,4’dir.  Kadınların %77,4’ü halen gebelikten korunmak için bir yöntem kullanırken %22,6’sı hiçbir yöntem kullanmamaktadır. Şuanda kullanılan kontraseptif yöntemin en yüksek oranda (%25,1) rahim içi araç (RİA) olduğu belirlenmiştir. Kadınlar %23,9 oranında tüp ligasyon ve %14,8 oranında ise geri çekme yöntemi ile gebelikten korunmaktadırlar. Araştırmaya katılan kadınların yarıdan fazlası (%53,8) geçmişte gebelikten korunmak için modern yöntem olarak hap kullanmıştır. Erkek kondomu %46,5 oranı ile ikinci sırada yer alırken, %32,9 oranı ile bakırlı RİA üçüncü sırada kullanılmıştır. Yöntem kullanmayan kadın oranı ise %9,9’dur. Kadınların %54,3’ü menopoz nedeni ile adetten kesildikten sonra ne kadar süre daha gebelikten korunmaları gerektiğini bilmemektedir. Perimenopozal dönemde yöntem kullanımının azalması ve bu dönemde ne kadar süre gebelikten korunması gerektiğinin bilinmemesi kadınların karşılanamayan danışmanlık gereksinimlerinin olduğunu ortaya koymaktadır. Bu danışmanlığın kadının yaşına ve ihtiyacına uygun verilmesi önerilebilir.

Objective: to analyze the use of contraceptive methods and the intention to become pregnant among women attending the Brazilian Unified Health System. Method: a cross-sectional study conducted with 688 women aged 18-49 years old, attending the Family Health Strategy Facilities in the eastern part of the city of São Paulo, Brazil, who were awaiting medical or nursing consultation. Data were obtained through interviews with a structured instrument, allocated in tablets. The analysis was conducted with “strong desire to avoid pregnancy” as the dependent variable. Chi-square and multiple logistic regression were used, calculated in Stata 14.2. Results: 56.5% used some contraceptive method, covariates of the strong desire to avoid pregnancy were marital status (OR=0.49; CI95%=0.33-0.74), parity – two and more children (OR=15.9; IC95%=4.29-59.1); and pregnancy planning – planned (OR=0.69; IC95%=0.73-0.94) and ambivalent (OR=2.94; IC95%=1.30-3.83). There was no statistical difference between the strong desire to avoid pregnancy and the type of contraceptive used. Conclusion: women with a strong desire to avoid pregnancy used basically the same types of contraceptive methods as women in general, which shows that they have not been supported to achieve their reproductive preferences.

Contraceptive use is the intentional desire of an individual to prevent or limit pregnancy and it is one of the major components of family planning, an important pillar in the prevention of over-population, which has become a most pressing global problem.  Materials and Methods: The study adopted a cross-sectional design that aimed at identifying the prevalence and determinants of current contraceptive use among women aged 18-49 years in a community in Port Harcourt, the capital city of Rivers State, Nigeria. A semi-structured questionnaire was administered to 216 women recruited from two clusters chosen randomly out of six clusters in the study area. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 20. Chi-square test was used to test for association between socio-demographic variables and contraceptive use. Logistic regression was used to identify determinants of uptake. Result: One hundred and five women (55.22%) were currently using contraceptive methods. Older than 29 years, being married/cohabiting, and having two or more living children were significantly associated with contraceptive use (P<0.05). Conclusion: This study identified a high proportion (55.22%) of women in our locality to be current users of modern contraceptive methods when compared to national average (27.0%). The male condom was the commonest used modern method (30.5%). The withdrawal method and prolonged breastfeeding were the preferred traditional methods (20.0% and 7.6% respectively). Older age of women (above 29 years), living with a partner, and having at least two living children were positive determinants of current contraceptive use.

The main aim of the study was to determine knowledge and use of modem contractive methods among reproductive age group rural women in Zambia. The study is a descriptive cross-sectional study of 105 randomly selected rural women. Data was collected using semi-structured interview schedule and analyzed using EPI Info version 6 statistical packages. The findings revealed that 63% of the respondents were within the age group 21-35 years, 65% were married and 64% were peasant farmers. 90% of the respondents had heard about modem contraceptives and their main source of information was the Health worker (62%). 76% of the respondents stated that modem contraceptive methods could be obtained from public health facilities. 56% of the respondents were currently using modem contraceptive methods and 46% were not using modem contraceptive methods. Reasons for non use of contraceptive methods were religious beliefs (50%), partner disapproval (30%) and side effects (20%). The results showed a relationship between educational level and use of contraceptives (Chi-square 7.83, df = 3, P < 0.05) and spouse approval or support of contractive methods and use of contraceptive (Chisquare 5.9, df = 2, P < 0.05). Therefore, efforts to promote modem contraceptive use among the rural women should be intensified to overcome barriers to contraceptive use and should involve men.

Background: Child marriage is a substantial barrier to social and economic development in Nepal, and a primary concern for women’s health. Little evidence from Nepal is available regarding the ways in which early marriage may compromise young women’s lives and their reproductive health and choices. The objectives of this study was to find out the factors associated with early age marriages in Dhankuta Municipality. Methods: The cross-sectional study was conducted among the residents of Dhankuta municipality, Nepal; where 246 households were taken as subjects. Pretested semi-structured questionnaire was administered to the study subjects and face to face interview was conducted. Chi-square test was applied to find out the association between factors and age of marriages. Results: Almost 53.3% of women were married before age 18 years. Education of wife and husband, and economic status are found to be the important variables in explaining early age marriage. Prevalence of child marriage was higher in Hindu than in Buddhist and Christian women but the difference was not significant. Age of marriage was not significantly associated with contraceptive use. Unwanted pregnancies were higher in early age marriage. It was also seen that unwanted pregnancies was higher (59.3%) than wanted pregnancies (48.6%). Conclusion: The findings of the study indicate that early age marriage was associated with low education and being poor.
