Amaç: Klimakterik dönem, bir kadının yaşamının 1/3'ünden fazlasını kapsamakta ve fizyolojik ve hormonal değişikliklerden kaynaklanan çeşitli semptomlara neden olmaktadır. Çalışmamızda klimakterik semptom yoğunluğunun fiziksel aktivite düzeyi, omurga hareketliliği, denge ve yaşam kalitesi ile ilişkisini araştırdık.

Gereç ve Yöntem: Klimakterik dönemdeki 64 kadın (49,5 ± 4,24 yıl) çalışmaya dahil edilmiştir. Klimakterik semptom şiddeti Blatt-Kupperman İndeksi ile, fiziksel aktivite düzeyleri Uluslararası Fiziksel Aktivite Anketi-Kısa Form ile, yaşam kalitesi Menopoza Özgü Yaşam Kalitesi Anketi ile, omurga mobilitesi flexicurve ve şerit metre ile, denge tek ayak duruş testi ile değerlendirildi. Değişkenler arasındaki korelasyonlar Pearson ve Spearman Korelasyon analizi ile analiz edildi.

Bulgular: Katılımcıların %15,6'sında minimal, %59,4'ünde hafif semptomlar, %18,8'inde orta semptomlar ve %6,3'ünde şiddetli klimakterik semptomlar vardı. Klimakterik süre spinal mobilite ölçümleri ve yaşam kalitesi (r= -0,26 - -0,30 ve -0,26) ile korelasyon göstermiştir (p<0,05). Semptom şiddeti yaşam kalitesi (r= -0,42) ve vücut kitle indeksi (r= -0,28) ile korelasyon gösterirken (p<0,05); fiziksel aktivite, mobilite ve denge ile korelasyon göstermemiştir (p>0,05).

Sonuç: Klimakterik semptomların şiddeti arttıkça yaşam kalitesi azalmıştır. Semptom şiddeti ile fiziksel aktivite, hareketlilik ve postüral denge arasında herhangi bir ilişki bulunmamıştır. Kadınların yaşam döngüsünün önemli bir kısmı klimakterik dönemde olduğu için bu dönemde ortaya çıkacak semptomların şiddetini azaltmaya yönelik rehberlik sağlanması kadınların yaşam kalitesinin artırılması açısından önemli olacaktır.

Relationship between Climacteric Symptom Intensity, Physical Activity Level, Spine Mobility, Balance, and Quality of Life in Women

Objective: The climacteric period contains more than 1/3 of a woman's life and causes various symptoms stemming from physiological and hormonal changes. Our study investigated the relationship of climacteric symptom intensity with physical activity level, spine mobility, balance, and quality of life.
Methods: 64 women (49,5 ± 4,24 years) in the climacteric period were included in the study. Climacteric symptom severity was assessed with the Blatt-Kupperman Index, physical activity levels with the International Physical Activity Questionnaire, quality of life with the Menopause-Specific Quality of Life Questionnaire, and balance with the single-leg stance test. The correlations between the variables were analyzed with the Pearson and Spearman Correlation analysis.
Results: Of the participants, 15.6% had minor severe symptoms, 59.4% had mild severe symptoms, 18.8% had moderately severe symptoms and 6.3% had severe climacteric symptoms. The climacteric duration was negatively correlated to spinal mobility measures (r= -0.26 - -0.30) and the quality of life (r= 0.26) (p<0.05). Symptom severity was negatively correlated to the quality of life (r=0.42) and body mass index (r=0.28) (p<0.05); however, not correlated to physical activity, mobility, and balance (p>0.05).
Conclusion: As the severity of climacteric symptoms increased, quality of life decreased. No relationship existed between symptom severity, physical activity, mobility, and postural balance. Since a significant part of women's life cycle is in the climacteric period, guiding to reduce the severity of symptoms that will occur in this period will be important in terms of improving the quality of life of women.
