This study explores the attitude and feelings toward menopause among Azeri menopausal women using hermeneutic phenomenology based on Van Manen's approach. A total of 18 menopausal women who were attended in urban health centers of Tabriz, Iran, were recruited using a purposive sampling method. Data were gathered through semistructured interviews. Each interview was transcribed verbatim and analyzed simultaneously. Data analysis led to the emergence of five main themes: positive attitude, neutral attitude, negative attitude, positive feelings, and negative feelings. Participants had different feelings and attitude. Acceptance of menopause as a natural process helps women to have a neutral attitude toward menopause.
本研究采用基于范曼方法的诠释现象学，探讨了阿塞拜疆绝经后女性对更年期的态度和感受。采用目的抽样法，招募了共18名在伊朗大不里士城市健康中心就诊的绝经后女性。通过半结构化访谈收集数据。每次访谈都逐字转录并同时进行分析。数据分析得出了五个主要主题：积极态度、中立态度、消极态度、积极感受和消极感受。参与者有不同的感受和态度。将更年期视为自然过程的接受有助于女性对更年期持中立态度。
