摘要

背景:不孕症是一种影响男性或女性生殖系统的生殖障碍,其特征是在12个月或更长时间的常规无保护性交后无法怀孕。它可能由男性、女性或特发性因素引起,某些病因是可以预防的。不孕症的治疗通常涉及辅助生殖技术,包括体外受精(IVF)。目的:本定量横断面研究旨在发现阿尔巴哈市女性不孕症治疗的传统做法。材料和方法:本研究选取了251名年龄在50岁及以下,在沙特阿拉伯Albaha市医院产科门诊因个人原因或男性不育而患有原发性或继发性不孕症的不孕妇女。研究时间为2021年5月30日至2022年1月。在参与者同意之前,这项研究得到了吉达国王阿卜杜勒阿齐兹大学护理伦理委员会的批准。结果:共有251名参与者表示,51.0%的人认为传统不孕症治疗成功,45.8%的人对传统不孕症治疗一无所知,3.2%的人对传统不孕症治疗持负面看法。在参与者中,39.5%的人表示他们在使用传统疗法后怀孕,而60.5%的人表示他们没有怀孕。约29.0%的妇女在6个月内怀孕,11.0%的妇女在6个月至1年内怀孕。三分之二的参与者报告说,传统治疗没有副作用,一半的受访者计划重复他们的经历。通过数据值(p > 0.05)表明,对怀孕与草药消费的研究缺乏统计重要性。结论:由于传统疗法对生理系统的作用和较低的费用,许多参与者相信使用传统疗法和拜访传统治疗师,而不是去医疗机构和卫生专业人员提供的护理服务。需要进一步的调查来支持本研究的结果。

Traditional Practices Used for the Infertility Treatment Among Females in Albaha City.

Traditional Practices Used for the Infertility Treatment Among Females in Albaha City.

Background: Infertility is a reproductive disorder affecting either the male or female reproductive system, characterized by the inability to achieve pregnancy after 12 months or more of regular, unprotected sexual intercourse. It may result from male, female, or idiopathic factors, with certain etiologies being preventable. Management of infertility frequently involves assisted reproductive technologies, including in vitro fertilization (IVF). Objective: This quantitative cross-sectional study aimed to discover the traditional practices used for infertility treatment among females in Albaha City. Materials and Methods: This study was conducted with 251 infertile women between the ages of 50 or beneath who had primary or secondary infertility because of personal reasons or male infertility in the maternity outpatient departments of Albaha City hospitals in Saudi Arabia. The study period lasted from May 30, 2021, until January 2022. The research obtained approval from the Faculty of Nursing ethical committee at King Abdulaziz University Jeddah before participants granted their consent. Results: A total of 251 participants indicated that 51.0% found traditional infertility treatment successful and 45.8% had no previous knowledge about the approach, while 3.2% viewed it negatively. Among the participants, 39.5% revealed that they got pregnant after using traditional treatments, whereas 60.5% said they did not get pregnant. About 29.0% of women who got pregnant achieved it within 6 months and 11.0% of them conceived over 6 months to 1 year. Two-thirds of participants reported no side effects from traditional healing treatment, and half of the respondents planned to repeat their experience. The research conducted on pregnancy and herb consumption demonstrated a lack of statistical importance expressed through the data values (p > 0.05). Conclusion: Many participants believed in using traditional practices and visiting traditional healers instead of attending medical facilities and the care services provided by health professionals due to their actions on physiological systems and low cost. Further investigation is required to support the outcomes of this study.
