摘要
背景:原发性痛经是一种常见的妇科疾病,其特征是在月经前或月经期间出现反复的、周期性的、痉挛性的下腹疼痛,通常没有盆腔疾病。它的大小还没有得到很好的研究;一些相关因素是不确定的。因此,本研究的目的是填补在Nekemte镇女高中生原发性痛经的程度和相关因素方面的空白。目的:评估2023年埃塞俄比亚西奥罗米亚州东瓦拉加Nekemte镇高中生原发性痛经程度及其相关因素。方法:采用基于机构的横断面研究方法,于2023年6月05日至19日对Nekemte镇高中生进行调查。计算的总样本量为534,数据来自4所公立高中和1所私立高中,采用多阶段分层抽样的方法。收集的数据输入Epi Info 3.1版本,使用SPSS 25版本进行分析。使用二元和多变量逻辑回归来发现因变量和自变量之间的关联。结果:原发性痛经发生率为68.4% (95% CI = 64.3%, 72.0%)。焦虑(AOR = 2.41, 95% CI = 1.31, 4.43)、原发性痛经家族史(AOR = 4.64, 95% CI = 2.74, 7.86)、性行为(AOR = 0.34, 95% CI = 0.21, 0.55)、饮茶。结论:研究区中学生原发性痛经程度较高。性交、体力活动、饮茶、焦虑、原发痛经家族史与原发痛经有显著相关性。
Primary dysmenorrhea and its associated factors among female high school students in Nekemte town, East Wallaga Zone, Western Oromia, Ethiopia: a cross-sectional study.
Background: Primary dysmenorrhea is a common gynecological problem characterized by recurrent, periodical, and cramping pain in the lower abdomen that occurs before or during menstruation, usually without pelvic disease. Its magnitude has not been well studied; some of the associated factors are inconclusive. Therefore, the goal of this study was to fill gaps on the magnitude, and associated factors of primary dysmenorrhea among female high school students in Nekemte town.
Objectives: To assess the magnitude of primary dysmenorrhea, its associated factors among high school students in Nekemte town, East Wallaga, Western Oromia, Ethiopia, 2023.
Methods: An institutional-based cross-sectional study was conducted among high school students in Nekemte town from June 05 to 19, 2023. The calculated total sample size was 534, and data were collected from four governmental high schools and one private high school that were selected by multistage stratified sampling. The collected data were entered into Epi Info version 3.1 and analyzed using SPSS version 25. Binary and multivariable logistic regressions were used to find associations between dependent and independent variables.
Results: The magnitude of primary dysmenorrhea was 68.4% (95% CI = 64.3%, 72.0%). Anxiety (AOR = 2.41, 95% CI = 1.31, 4.43), family history of primary dysmenorrhea (AOR = 4.64, 95% CI = 2.74, 7.86), sexual intercourse (AOR = 0.34, 95% CI = 0.21, 0.55), drinking tea <4 cups per day (AOR = 0.38, 95% CI = 0.22, 0.60), and physical activity (AOR = 0.06, 95% CI = 0.03, 0.11) were factors associated with primary dysmenorrhea.
Conclusion: The magnitude of primary dysmenorrhea was high among high school students in the study area. Sexual intercourse, physical activity, drinking tea, anxiety, and family history of primary dysmenorrhea were significantly associated with primary dysmenorrhea.
