Psychoemotional state and quality of life of nulliparous women with recurrent squamous epithelial exocervical dysplasia of the cervical epithelium in the perimenopausal period

The objective: to study the features of the psychoemotional state and quality of life of nulliparous women with recurrent squamous epithelial exocervical dysplasia of the cervical epithelium in the perimenopausal period.Materials and methods. 60 nulliparous women with recurrent cervical epithelial flat dysplasia that occurred after treatment with surgical methods in the perimenopausal period (the main group) and 38 women without gynecological and somatic pathologies in the perimenopausal period (control group) were examined. All patients were examined in accordance with the regulatory orders of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine. The assessment of neurovegetative and psychoemotional manifestations was carried out according to the Kupperman index, indicators of the quality of life and the Lusher color test.Results. The data of the medical history and clinical examination of patients were evaluated. This makes possible to identify a risk group among nulliparous women in the perimenopausal period for the development of recurrent squamous epithelial exocervical dysplasia of the cervical epithelium.In the main group, an increase in the Kupperman menopausal index by almost 1.5 times was found, as well as a significant decrease in indicators of psychosocial adaptation according to Lusher test to 40% and quality of life (physical component of health was 72.5±6.4 and 93,1±4,7 points in the main and control groups, respectively, mental component – 54.2±4.1 and 91,4±2,3 points, respectively).Conclusions. In infertile women with the menopausal changes, the recurrent squamous epithelial exocervical dysplasia of the cervical epithelium is a form of complicated course of dysplasia, and has a multifactorial genesis, in which conditions arise for the implementation of the neoplastic process. The clinical manifestations of the complicated course of the perimenopausal period significantly worsen the quality of life and general health in nulliparous women, especially on the background of recurrent squamous epithelial exocervical dysplasia of the cervical epithelium after surgical treatment, which is evidenced by more pronounced climacteric manifestations, reduction of physical and social activities, and emotional status.
