Some Symptoms of Dysfunction and Quality of Life Among Menopausal Women: A Community-Based Study in A Rural Area of Thai Binh


During menopause transitions, fluctuate hormone levels make menopausal women susceptible to mental and physical disorders that affect their quality of life. Research on menopause-related problems, especially among rural women, are also lacking. With that sense, research is aimed at investigating some signs of dysfunction and quality of life in menopausal women. A cross-sectional study was performed on 296 menopausal women aged 45-60 in 2 communes Tan Phong, Tan Hoa, Vu Thu district, Thai Binh province. Data was collected with 2 study tools: The Menopause Rating Scale (MRS) scale and the World health organization quality of life questionnaire (WHOQOL-BREF). 

68.2% of women participating in the study has mild-moderate, severe-very severe symptoms 7.4% and 24.3% of women has no menopausal symptoms. The average score of the QOL is 66.0±8.4. The highest quality score in the field of environment is 21.5±3.7, the lowest is in the field of social relations with 8.7±2.1. Conclusion: Menopause causes physical, mental and urogenital problems. Almost all domains evaluated were impaired in menopausal women and affect their quality of life. Education, creating awareness and providing suitable intervention to improve the QOL of menopausal women are important at both the individual and community level.

Menopause is a condition in which a woman ceases menstruation due to exhaustion of her ovaries, which are no longer receptive to gonadotropic hormone stimulation, and as a result, she no longer secretes enough sex hormones. A woman can no longer become pregnant after menopause. Menopause is the end of menstruation and the secondary amenorrhea, which is caused by a natural and irreversible reduction in ovarian function. Menopause occurs at an average age of 45-50.

 Chemo stratigraphic Profile of a Reservoir in Well “X” of Field “Y” Offshore Southern Gabon - Stephy Publishers In a bid to evaluate the elemental and mineralogical content of reservoir samples from the “X” well in the “Y” oil field offshore Southern Gabon, analyses were performed using XRD and XRF. The log view profile of the result inferred that Na, Mg, and Calcite were absent in the shallower series of the reservoir sandstones studied, this observation implies that they are soluble ions that had eroded and refer to warm and humid paleoclimate and a depositional environment that is arid, which corresponds to the continental crust as their source. The plot of Ti and FeO+Mg discriminate the deeper series of the reservoir sandstone samples from the shallower samples. The lower series showed heavier values which implies their origin from Oceanic Crust. These are also the pre-salt facies while the shallower series were more of continental origin and represent the post-salt facies. https:
