To analyze the weight recognition and control among women aged 15-49 in China.
Data was from the China National Nutrition and Health Surveillance 2010-2013. Stratified multistage cluster sampling method was used. The data of 35 664(16 914 urban women and 18 750 rural women) 15-49 years old women of childbearing age was used. The basic information was collected by questionnaires. Physical measurement indexes such as height and weight were collected.
Among overweight and obese women of childbearing age, only 34. 9%(95%CI 34. 2%-35. 6%) of them correctly judged themselves overweight or obese, and 61. 4%(95% CI 60. 6%-62. 1%) of them thought they were normal weight; 10. 8%(95%CI10. 3%-11. 2%) of the normal-weight women thought they were overweight; while 3. 0%(95% CI 2. 6%-3. 4%) of the low-weight women thought they were overweight. Only17. 1%(95% CI 16. 4%-17. 8%) of overweight and obese women of childbearing age take weight control measures. In addition, 3. 6%(95% CI 3. 1%-4. 1%) of low-weight women of childbearing age and 9. 7%(95% CI 9. 3%-10. 1%) of normal-weight women took weight control measures, respectively. The proportion of women aged 15-24 taking weight control measures was higher than that of women aged 25-34 and 35-49, 14. 8%(95% CI 13. 3%-16. 4%), 12. 2%(95% CI 11. 1%-13. 2%) and 10. 0%(95% CI9. 3%-10. 1%), respectively. The proportion of women aged 15-24 taking weight control measures was the highest among normal weight women and overweight and obese women, 13. 9%(95% CI 13. 1%-14. 7%) and 26. 9%(95% CI 26. 4%-27. 4%), respectively.
At present, there were more women of childbearing age in China who could not correctly assess their own body weight, leading to the inability to take correct weight control measures.
分析中国15 - 49岁女性的体重认知与控制情况。
数据来自2010 - 2013年中国国家营养与健康监测。采用分层多阶段整群抽样方法。使用了35664名（16914名城市女性和18750名农村女性）15 - 49岁育龄女性的数据。通过问卷调查收集基本信息。收集身高、体重等身体测量指标。
在超重和肥胖的育龄女性中，只有34.9%（95%CI 34.2% - 35.6%）的人正确判断自己超重或肥胖，61.4%（95%CI 60.6% - 62.1%）的人认为自己体重正常；10.8%（95%CI 10.3% - 11.2%）体重正常的女性认为自己超重；而3.0%（95%CI 2.6% - 3.4%）体重过轻的女性认为自己超重。只有17.1%（95%CI 16.4% - 17.8%）的超重和肥胖育龄女性采取了体重控制措施。此外，分别有3.6%（95%CI 3.1% - 4.1%）的体重过轻育龄女性和9.7%（95%CI 9.3% - 10.1%）的体重正常女性采取了体重控制措施。15 - 24岁女性采取体重控制措施的比例高于25 - 34岁和35 - 49岁女性，分别为14.8%（95%CI 13.3% - 16.4%）、12.2%（95%CI 11.1% - 13.2%）和10.0%（95%CI 9.3% - 10.1%）。15 - 24岁女性在体重正常女性和超重及肥胖女性中采取体重控制措施的比例最高，分别为13.9%（95%CI 13.1% - 14.7%）和26.9%（95%CI 26.4% - 27.4%）。
目前，中国有较多育龄女性不能正确评估自身体重，导致无法采取正确的体重控制措施。
