Dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, and non-cyclic pelvic pain are health concerns for factory workers in China and may be increased by occupational stress.
To estimate the prevalence and demographic and occupational factors associated with three types of gynecologic pain among female factory workers in Tianjin.
The study included 651 female workers from three factories in Tianjin, China. Logistic regression models were estimated to determine associations between occupational stress and gynecologic pain.
Occupational stress including high job strain, exhaustion, and stress related to working conditions was a risk factor for gynecologic pain. High job strain and poor job security were associated with an increased risk for dysmenorrhea. Compulsory overtime and exhaustion were associated with increased non-cyclic pelvic pain. Working overtime and exhaustion were associated with increased dyspareunia.
As China's population of female factory workers grows, research on the reproductive health of this population is essential.
痛经、性交疼痛和非周期性盆腔疼痛是中国工厂女工关注的健康问题，职业压力可能会加剧这些问题。
评估天津工厂女工中三种妇科疼痛的患病率以及与之相关的人口统计学和职业因素。
该研究纳入了来自中国天津三家工厂的651名女工。采用逻辑回归模型来确定职业压力与妇科疼痛之间的关联。
职业压力，包括高工作要求、倦怠以及与工作条件相关的压力，是妇科疼痛的一个危险因素。高工作要求和工作安全感低与痛经风险增加有关。强制加班和倦怠与非周期性盆腔疼痛增加有关。加班和倦怠与性交疼痛增加有关。
随着中国工厂女工人数的增加，对这一人群生殖健康的研究至关重要。
