OBJECTIVE
Fecal incontinence (FI) is a very common problem in women especially among the elderly. Women with FI experience significant physical and psychological disability and lifestyle limitations. This study attempts to estimate FI among community women above 40 years of age and its associated risk factors in Tehran, Iran.
STUDY DESIGN
In this cross-sectional study, via cluster sampling, a total of 800 community middle-aged women were randomly selected and interviewed using a questionnaire.
RESULTS
Prevalence of FI was 18.4 %. Our findings show that FI was associated with UI, osteoarthritis, diabetes mellitus, and inflammatory bowel disease.
CONCLUSIONS
FI was a prevalent condition in Iranian middle-aged women. Future efforts should be aimed at screening FI in women, offering services to treat them, reducing personal and complication-related costs, and improving their quality of life.
目的
大便失禁（FI）在女性中是一个非常常见的问题，尤其是在老年人中。患有FI的女性经历了显著的身体和心理残疾以及生活方式受限。本研究试图估计伊朗德黑兰40岁以上社区女性中FI的情况及其相关危险因素。
研究设计
在这项横断面研究中，通过整群抽样，随机选取了800名社区中年女性，并使用问卷进行访谈。
结果
FI的患病率为18.4%。我们的研究结果表明，FI与尿失禁、骨关节炎、糖尿病和炎症性肠病有关。
结论
FI在伊朗中年女性中是一种普遍存在的情况。未来的努力应旨在筛查女性中的FI，提供治疗服务，降低个人和并发症相关成本，并改善她们的生活质量。
