Dysmenorrhea among Adolescent Girls in Selected Schools at Mangalore with Vie...iosrjce
Background: Primary dysmenorrhea is one of the commonest menstrual problems among adolescent girls
which affects their daily activities and academic activities. Hence, preventing and managing dysmenorrhea is a
crucial aspect of adolescent reproductive health. Providing health education is an ideal method to bring about
awareness regarding the management of dysmenorrhea which further can help them to improve their
reproductive health.
Methods And Materials: A descriptive design was adopted. Data was collected with structured interview
schedule among 300 adolescent girls studying in Mangalore One CBSC School and Kanachur Public School,
Mangalore.
Result: The mean age at menarche of the participants was 12.7 ± 0.697 years. More than half of adolescent
girls (52.3%) had 3 to 4 days of menses with the cycle of 28 to 30 days (64.7%). Three fourth of them had
experienced dysmenorrhea in last three cycles among which 77.2% had mild symptoms and remaining had
moderate symptoms. All most all of the girls (99.6%) have abdominal pain followed by irritability (76.4%).
Other common symptoms experienced by girls were pain radiated to the thighs and legs (48%), back ache
(39.6%), lack of concentration (37.8%), headache (30.7%). About 48% of the adolescent girls had limitation of
daily activities during menstruation. Majority of the participants (70.7%) did not have any physician
consultation and 77.8% use self medications, mainly tablet paracetamol (67.6% ). There was a significant
association between the level of dysmenorrhea and age, educational status and age at menarche of adolescent
girls (p< 0.05).
Conclusion: Most of the adolescent girls have mild to moderate level of dysmenorrhea which has affected
their daily activities. Hence educational activities are necessary to increase the adolescent girls’ awareness on
dysmenorrhea and its management.

Background: Maternal health remains today, one of the major public health concerns in developing countries. Maternal deaths and newborn deaths usually occur within 48 hours of delivery. In Cameroon, despite all the initiatives set up by the Ministry of Public Health to reduce the mortality rate, the situation remains alarming in terms of postnatal consultation; this is much more felt in the West region of Cameroon, which is one of the most affected regions because 43.1% of women who give birth in hospitals do not return to postnatal consultation and this rate is higher than the national average with a value of 21.5%. Objective:This work aims to determine the factors influencing postnatal follow-up in the Bafang Health District. Methodology: This is a cross-sectional descriptive study for analytical purposes, carried out in the Bafang Health District between January 1 to November 30, 2017. Our study population consisted of all women of childbearing age living in the Bafang Health District during the study period. The variables studied were sociodemographic characteristics, socio-cultural characteristics and the provision of care. Results: Analysis carried out during this study, it appears that, the person who informs the women on the dates of rendez-vous during the CPoN (OR = 2.92; [95%CI = 1.16-7,]; p-value = 0.02), women who think the appropriate period of postnatal follow-up is 6 weeks postpartum (OR = 4.27, [95%CI = 1.47-12.39], p-value = 0.00 ) and those who massage the abdomen after childbirth (OR = 2.62, [95%CI = 1.34 - 5.12], p-value = 0.00) are more likely to have knowledge about follow-up postnatal. While women who have no knowledge of postnatal follow-up (OR = 0.18, 95%CI = 0.07-0.45, p-value = 0.00) are less likely to have more knowledge. Conclusion: Lack of knowledge of the existence and importance of postnatal consultation (CPoN), traditional practices are the factors that influence postnatal follow-up in the Bafang Health District. A good and effective care for women after childbirth requires increased awareness campaigns at the hospital level as well as in community settings.

In 2013, Vietnam has about 300,000 abortions, ranking highest in Southeast Asia (5th in the world) according to Vietnam Family Planning
