To determine the predictive role of premenstrual symptoms in reproductive-aged women's quality of life.
The cross-sectional study was conducted in Rawalakot, Azad Kashmir, from September 2017 to January 2018, and comprised married women aged 20-45 years. Urdu versions of Greene Climacteric Symptoms Scale and World Health Organisation Quality of Life scale were used. Data was analysed using SPSS 23.
Of the 300 women with a mean age of 32.59±7.12 years, 245(81.7%) had a regular menstrual cycle. There was significant negative relationship between premenstrual symptoms and all domains of quality of life (p<0.05). Somatic symptoms were predominantly affecting the quality of life in more negative manners compared to other symptoms (p<0.05).
Premenstrual symptoms disturb the daily activities of reproductive-aged women and adversely affect their educational, occupational and psychosocial functioning.
确定经前症状对育龄妇女生活质量的预测作用。
2017年9月至2018年1月在阿扎德克什米尔的拉瓦尔科特进行了一项横断面研究,研究对象为年龄在20 - 45岁的已婚妇女。使用了格林更年期症状量表和世界卫生组织生活质量量表的乌尔都语版本。数据采用SPSS 23进行分析。
在300名平均年龄为32.59±7.12岁的女性中,245名(81.7%)月经周期规律。经前症状与生活质量的所有领域之间存在显著的负相关关系(p<0.05)。与其他症状相比,躯体症状对生活质量的负面影响更为显著(p<0.05)。
经前症状会干扰育龄妇女的日常活动,并对其教育、职业和心理社会功能产生不利影响。
