Endometriosis is a chronic deliberating disease with devastating effects on reproductive health. The present study aimed to investigate the impact of education based on the theory of planned behavior (TPB) on the reproductive health of women with endometriosis. This research was a randomized controlled trial performed on 71 women with endometriosis (35 intervention and 36 control groups) referred to the infertility clinic of Imam Khomeini Hospital in Tehran, Iran. The educational intervention based on the structures of the TPB was performed in the intervention group in 4 sessions, weekly for 90-120 min. The demographic questionnaire, model constructs questionnaire, and endometriosis reproductive health questionnaire (ERHQ) in both groups were completed in 3 stages (before intervention, 4, and 8 weeks after the intervention). Data were analyzed using SPSS software version 24.
After the educational intervention, TPB values and overall reproductive health of women with endometriosis improved significantly in the intervention group ( < 0.05), while changes were not significant in the control group.
The study results showed that education based on the TPB had positive effects on the reproductive health of patients.

子宫内膜异位症是一种慢性难治性疾病,对生殖健康具有严重影响。本研究旨在探讨基于计划行为理论(TPB)的教育对子宫内膜异位症女性生殖健康的影响。本研究为一项随机对照试验,对转诊至伊朗德黑兰伊玛目霍梅尼医院不孕不育门诊的71名子宫内膜异位症女性(35名干预组和36名对照组)进行了研究。干预组基于TPB结构进行了4次教育干预,每周1次,每次90 - 120分钟。两组均在3个阶段(干预前、干预后4周和8周)完成了人口统计学问卷、模型构建问卷和子宫内膜异位症生殖健康问卷(ERHQ)。使用SPSS 24.0软件进行数据分析。
教育干预后,干预组子宫内膜异位症女性的TPB值和总体生殖健康显著改善(<0.05),而对照组变化不显著。
研究结果表明,基于TPB的教育对患者的生殖健康有积极影响。
