This study focused on the acceptance of menstruation and assessed coping methods from both the physical and mental aspects. \u0000Methods: Female college students (n=122) were recruited from the Faculty of Nursing, Chiang Mai University. Subjects responded to a survey consisting of questionnaires about their menstruation, peri-menstrual symptoms, and coping behaviors (examples, satisfaction), and three psychometric measurements (State Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), Generalized Self-Efficacy Scale, and the Tri-Axial Coping Scale). Also, 25 subjects suffering from premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and 25 non-PMS subjects were investigated in terms of the activity of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) using heart rate variability and the cold pressor test. These surveys were conducted twice: once before and once after ovulation. \u0000Results: The subjects who had severe menstrual problem showed significantly low satisfaction with their coping behaviors. About half of the subjects were not satisfied with their coping behaviors because they need more practical information about methods of coping. In the secretory phase, there was no significant difference in levels of coping satisfaction. However, Low satisfied group showed a relatively high STAI score and a low Self-Efficacy score. Additionally, the activated sympathetic nerves appeared to become dominant over the parasympathetic nerves in the secretory phase. \u0000Conclusion: The severity of menstruation was correlated to low satisfaction with coping behaviors. This severity was affected by the cyclic change of menstruation and activity of the ANS. This study suggests providing more practical education for young women.","PeriodicalId":17626,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Womens Health Care","volume":"29 1","pages":"1-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82090338","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Interaction of different factors such as individual, household and community level covariates plays an important role in determining the level of unmet need for family planning. \u0000Objectives: The objective of the study is to examine the association between individual, household and community level covariates with the level of unmet need for family planning in Bangladesh. \u0000Methodology: For the core, analysis data has been extracted from Bangladesh Demographic Health Survey (BDHS), 2011. Multilevel regression analyses have been employed to explore the relative effects of community, household level and individual level factors on unmet need for family planning among currently married women. \u0000Results: Results shows that unmet need for contraception marginally declined from 16.8% in 2007 to 13.5% in 2011. Surprisingly the impact of education and wealth index is marginal in determining the level of unmet need. On the other hand, three community level variables (% women exposed to family planning, % women with ideal number of children and % women with primary and higher education) significantly associated with the level of unmet need for family planning in Bangladesh. Conclusion: Since unmet needs for family planning has multiple advantages for both the individual and society, it is necessary for the governments to come up with strategies, which can reduce unmet needs.","PeriodicalId":17626,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Womens Health Care","volume":"6 1","pages":"1-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80346154","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Concerns about health, sexuality, and emotional distress are common among women with breast cancer and are often related to the side effects of cancer treatment. Additionally, both intimate relationship problems and partners' distress are likely to influence patients' psychosexual health. A clearer understanding of these complex clinical issues is needed in order to implement effective psychosexual rehabilitation interventions. In this article, we extended the use of the manualized and empirically validated Supportive-Expressive Group Therapy (SEGT) model to target the specific psychosexual needs of couples with breast (as well as other types of) cancer. In view of the pertinent literature in this area and based on our clinical experience utilizing this group therapy model with different patient populations, we have discussed how clinicians involved in the psychosexual care of oncology patients could apply such a model within a couples group therapy format.</p>","PeriodicalId":17626,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Womens Health Care","volume":"3 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.4172/2167-0420.1000205","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"34529082","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, data on the effectiveness of FP/HIV integration on FP uptake is limited. \u0000Objective: Determine the effect of FP/HIV services integration, focusing on FP integration with Antiretroviral Therapy (ART) \u0000Methods: A cross-sectional comparative design was conducted in facilities with and without FP/ART integration in four major regions of Ethiopia. The study population included HIV positive women attending ART clinics. Data were collected using structured questionnaire from 843 and 691 HIV positive women in intervention and comparison facilities respectively from April 23 to May 2, 2012. Data entry and analysis was done using SPSS version 17.0 and proportions and relevant associations were computed. \u0000Results: Most of the women (94.7%) received one or more HIV services. In both groups, 736 (48.2%) women used any type of FP method; the majority (97%) used modern FP and 54.6% used injectables. Over all CPR was 48%; with higher CPR in intervention than comparison group (52.6 %versus 42.9%) [AOR (95%CI) =1.23, (1.23, 1.92). A higher proportion of women in intervention than comparison group used dual methods [AOR (95%CI) =1.50 (1.01, 2.2)]. Total unmet need for FP in the study was 16.2 percent. There was no significant difference in unmet need for FP between intervention and comparison groups (15.7% vs. 16.9% respectively) [(OR 0.94 95% CI (0.63, 1.39)]. \u0000Conclusion and Recommendation: FP/HIV integration improved CPR and use of dual methods showing the benefit of FP/HIV integration.
