“…The time required for HPO axis maturation following menarche, which is thought to result in ovulatory cycles and subsequent regular bleeding, varies between six months and three years. Due to ovulatory dysfunction, in the following months after menarche, irregular and unpredictable, heavy and prolonged, and, rarely, skipped menses for less than three months may occur (5). Thus perception of "normal" menstrual cycle may vary in these girls and their families.…”

This article reviews the current understanding and management of abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) in adolescents. It is hoped that this review will provide readers with an approach to the evaluation and treatment of mild to severe uterine bleeding. AUB is a common problem which has significantly adverse effects on an affected adolescent's quality of life. The most common underlying condition in AUB in adolescence is anovulation. During the evaluation, pregnancy, trauma and sexually transmitted diseases must be ruled out, regardless of history. It should be kept in mind that AUB during this period may be the first sign of underlying bleeding disorders. Although observation is sufficient in the mild form of AUB, at the other end of the spectrum life-threatening bleeding may necessitate the use of high doses of combined oral contraceptives, intravenous estrogen and/or interventional procedures.

“…Previous studies exhibited that menstrual cycles are disrupted significantly in cases with nutritional problems. 6,7 For instance, in pubertal girls increased iron losses due to menstruation elevate the risk of iron depletion. In this context, Hallberg et al reported high prevalence of iron depletion in pubertal girls, which was found to differentiate based on their menstrual status, dietary habits, use of supplements and oral contraceptives.…”

Bu çalışmanın temel amacı, 18-25 yaşları arasındaki 80 Türk kadının, menstrüel siklusları boyunca beslenme durumlarını ve vücut kompozisyonlarındaki değişimleri araştırmaktır. Materyal ve Metot: Demogr afik bilgiler ve besin alımı verileri önceden yapılandırılmış bir anketle toplanmıştır. Kadınların vücut ölçümleri BIA yöntemiyle, menstruasyon sırasında ve sonrasındaki 4 günde olmak üzere 2 kez alınmıştır. Besin tüketim kayıtları analiz edilerek enerji ve besin öğesi alımları değerlendirilmiştir. İstatistiksel analizlerde SPSS 18.0 programı kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Katılımcılar ın yaş or talaması 21.6 ± 1.68 yıldır. Menstruasyon döngüsü sırasındaki ve sonrasındaki ölçümleri karşılaştırıldığında, vücut ağırlıkları, bel çevresi ve göğüs çevresi artışları sırasıyla 0.32 kg, 0.90 cm ve 0.57 cm bulunmuştur. Bu değişiklikler istatistiksel olarak anlamlıdır (p <0.05). Enerji, karbonhidrat ve protein alımları iki döngü arasında yükselirken, menstrüel fazda yağ alımı daha düşüktür, ancak istatistiksel olarak anlamlılık görülmemiştir (p> 0.05). Sonuç: Her ne kadar çeşitli çalışmalar menstr uasyon dönemine odaklanmış olsa da, çalışmamızın yeniliği, özellikle bu dönemde besin öğesi alımını da değerlendirmesidir. Menstruasyon döngüsüne bağlı olarak kadınların enerji ve besin öğesi alımlarında farklılık olmadığı görülmüştür.

“…For all young girls, menarche is the culmination of a sustained intricate hormonal interplay which is governed by the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis 3. As this ongoing cyclical process matures slowly,4 5 disturbances such as dysmenorrhoea, abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) and premenstrual syndrome (PMS) can present 6…”

Developing and trialling a school-based ovulatory-menstrual health literacy programme for adolescent girls: a quasi-experimental mixed-method protocol

et al. 2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

IntroductionA review of international and Australian school-based resources suggests that teaching of the ovulatory-menstrual (OM) cycle is predominantly couched in biology. A whole-person framework that integrates spiritual, intellectual, social and emotional dimensions with the physical changes of the OM cycle is needed to facilitate adolescent OM health literacy. This paper describes the protocol for a study that aims to develop and trial an intervention for adolescent girls aged 13–16 years that enhances positive attitudes towards OM health coupled with developing skills to monitor and self-report OM health. These skills aim to foster acceptance of the OM cycle as a ‘vital sign’ and facilitate confident communication of common OM disturbances (namely, dysmenorrhoea, abnormal uterine bleeding and premenstrual syndrome), which are known to impact school and social activities.Methods and analysisPhase I will comprise a Delphi panel of women’s health specialists, public health professionals and curriculum consultants and focus groups with adolescent girls, teachers and school healthcare professionals. This will inform the development of an intervention to facilitate OM health literacy. The Delphi panel will also inform the development of a valid and reliable questionnaire to evaluate OM health literacy. Phase II will trial the intervention with a convenience sample of at least 175 adolescent girls from one single-sex school. The mixed-method evaluation of the intervention will include a pre-intervention and post-intervention questionnaire. One-on-one interviews with teachers and school healthcare professionals will expand the understanding of the barriers, enablers and suitability of implementation of the intervention in a school-based setting. Finally, focus groups with purposively selected trial participants will further refine the intervention.Ethics and disseminationThe study findings will be disseminated through local community seminars, conferences, peer-review articles and media channels where appropriate. The Curtin University of Human Research Ethics Committee has approved this study (approval HRE2018-0101). This project is registered with the ‘Australian and New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry’.Trial registration numberACTRN12619000031167; Pre-results.
