Abstract

Premenstrüel sendrom (PMS), oldukça sık görülen bir halk sağlığı sorunudur. PMS’li kadınların çoğunluğu, yakınmalarının normal olduğunu düşünerek sağlık örgütlerine başvurmaktan kaçındıkları için sorunun boyutlarını belirlemek güçtür. Bu çalışma, üreme çağındaki kadınlarda PMS ve semptomlarının sıklığını ve çeşitli faktörlerle ilişkisini belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Kesitsel araştırma şeklinde planlanan çalışmamızda Kayseri il merkezinde bulunan 203 ebe bölgesinden rastgele seçilen 34 bölgeye ait hane kayıtları kullanılarak, her ebe bölgesinden bir hane rastgele seçilmiş, seçilen her haneden başlamak üzere 15–49 yaş kadınlar 50 kişiye ulaşıncaya kadar ardışık olarak örnekleme alınmıştır. Araştırmaya alınan 1019 kadına 52 sorudan oluşan anket formu ve Premenstrüel Sendrom Ölçeği (PMSÖ) ölçeği uygulanmıştır. Verilerin istatistiksel analizinde unpaired t testi, tek yönlü ANOVA (post hoc Tukey), Ki-kare testi ve Pearson korelasyon testi kullanılmıştır. Katılımcıların ortalama PMS puanı 102,9±35,1, PMS prevalansı %39,8 olarak bulunmuştur. Sigara içenlerde, genel sağlık algısı kötü olanlarda, ev dışında çalışanlarda, dismenoresi olanlarda ve annesinde veya kız kardeşinde PMS yakınmaları olanlarda PMS sıklığı daha fazladır (p<0,05). Yaş, öğrenim düzeyi, ekonomik durum ve evlilik durumu ile PMS sıklığı arasında ilişki bulunmadı. Araştırma kapsamına alınan kadınların yaklaşık %40’ında PMS vardır. PMS sıklığı ile sigara içme, çalışma durumu, dismenore, genel sağlık algısı ve yakın akrabalarda PMS öyküsü arasında ilişki vardır. PMS yakınmaları olan kadınların sağlık örgütlerine başvurmaları ve gerekli tıbbi yardımı almaları sağlanmalıdır.

PREVALENCE OF PREMENSTRUAL SYNDROME IN THE PROVINCIAL CENTER OF KAYSERİ AND RELATED FACTORS

Abstract

Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) is a very common public health problem. It is difficult to determine the dimensions of the problem, as the majority of women with PMS avoid applying to health organizations, thinking that their complaints are normal. This investigation has been performed in order to determine the frequency of PMS and its symptoms in reproductive age women and their relationship with various factors. Using the household records of 34 randomly selected regions from 203 midwives in the city center of Kayseri, one household was randomly selected from each midwife region, and women aged 15-49 were sampled consecutively, starting from each selected household, until they reached 50 people. A questionnaire consisting of 52 questions and the Premenstrual Syndrome Scale (PMSS) scale were applied to 1019 women included in the study. Unpaired t test, one way ANOVA (post hoc Tukey), Chi-square test, and Pearson correlation were used for statistical analyses. Mean PMS score of the participants was 102.9±35.1 and prevalence of PMS was 39.8%. Prevalence rate of PMS is higher in smokers, those with poor general health perception, those who work outside the home, those with dysmenorrhea, and those whose mothers or sisters have PMS complaints (p<0.05). No relationship was found between age, education level, economic status, marital status, and the frequency of PMS. Approximately 40% of the women included in the study have PMS. There is a relation between prevalence rate of PMS and smoking, employment status, dysmenorrhea, general health perception, and a history of PMS in close relatives. The women having PMS should be encouraged to consult a physician and to take relevant medical care.
