Abstract

Background: Premenopause syndrome triggers more severe physical and psychological problems and the emergence of various diseases. The limited research on the factors causing the severity of Premenopause syndrome has resulted in a lack of efforts to address the causative factors. Purpose: This study aims to explore factors that influence the severity of premenopause syndrome.Method: This is an analytic observational study with a cross-sectional design. Eighty-eight women aged 40-45 years were included in this study. The knowledge, attitude, age of menarche, use of hormonal contraceptives, and symptoms of premenopause syndrome observed in this study—data analysis using chi-square and multiple logistic regression.Results: Factors that influence the severity of premenopause syndrome are knowledge, attitude, age of menarche, and use of hormonal contraceptives (p<0.001). Knowledge is the most dominant factor (Exp(B) = 25.983; p<0.05)Conclusion: These results underscore the importance of increasing the knowledge of premenopause women to reduce the severity.

Abstract

Background: Adolescence pregnancy poses risks for both mothers and infants, often due to insufficient prenatal care resulting from societal stigmatization and lack of awareness. Around 16 million adolescents aged 15-19 years in the world give birth each year; in Indonesia, the first pregnant women aged <20 years are 45.10%, while in West Sumatra, it is 33.7%. To address this issue, integrated programs and midwifery care have been implemented. However, providing such care to adolescent mothers comes with its own set of challenges.Purpose:  This study aims to conduct a midwifery assessment and intervention protocol for adolescent pregnancy.Method: Qualitative approach The Delphi method involved two rounds of evaluation, with twenty-one participants who were independent practice midwives, six midwives involved in the mother and child health program, and nine midwifery lecturers from accredited educational institutions A (excellent). Participants had at least five years of clinical experience and were selected using purposive non-probability sampling. Participants evaluated statements related to midwifery care during the Delphi process. The validity of these statements was determined by participants providing a minimum score of 3, and the Content Validity Ratio (CVR) was calculated. Statements with a CVR greater than 0.8 were considered valid.Results: Based on expert consensus, important assessments for adolescent pregnant women include addressing issues of gender equality and domestic violence, reproductive and sexual health, risks associated with smoking and substance abuse, maintaining a healthy pregnancy, and adequately preparing for labor and parenthood.Conclusion: Midwifery management and midwifery information were deemed valid dimensions of midwifery care; relational care had one invalid item.
