ABSTRACT
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE:
The aim of this study was to evaluate the surgical menopause indications and sociodemographic characteristics of women.METHODS:
In this retrospective study, we analyzed the sociodemographic characteristics of women with indications for surgical menopause in 2010-2020. The R Version 4.1.1 (2021-08-10) software and logistic regression analysis were used to evaluate the data.RESULTS:
A total of 704 women's data were obtained in this study. Surgical menopause indications were found to stem from bleeding (46.0%), cancer (28.3%), cancer risk (18.9%), and other causes (6.8%). Surgical menopause indications originating from cancer were increased by 0.08 times (95%CI 0.01-0.68) due to smoking, 0.45 times (95%CI 0.23-0.88) due to regular drug use, and 0.36 times (95%CI 0.19-0.69) due to the presence of chronic disease (p<0.05).CONCLUSION:
More than half of the women with surgical menopause indications were between 41 and 46 years of age. Additionally, 54.9% of the women had a chronic disease. Therefore, it is recommended to plan preventive health services for morbidity and mortality risks that may develop due to surgical menopause.
