“…This can be attributed to lack of awareness in rural areas as compared with the urban areas. These findings are in agreement with the findings of Chauhan et al, 32 who concluded that there was a highly statistically significant relation between students' total knowledge score level and their age, education and marital status. Hence, it is interpreted that there is an association between demographic variables with pretest knowledge score and the impact of program on the level of knowledge of students.…”

Vaginal infections are a global health problem for women at reproductive age. These infections threat the women's health and have negative impacts on their QOL. Aim of the study: to evaluate the effect of selfcare guidelines on knowledge, quality of life and practices, among faculty of nursing students with vaginal infection. Subjects and methods: quasi experimental research design was used to conduct the study at Faculty of Nursing, El Minia University. It included 214 female students selected by purposive sampling technique according to inclusion criteria, who suffer from vaginitis. The data were collected by using a selfadministered questionnaire including socio demographic data, knowledge, practice and WHOQOL scale. Results: the prevalence of vaginal infection among female students constituted 25%. The majority of studied students lacked the essential knowledge regarding vaginal infection in the pretest and has unsatisfactory practices score that consequently had negative impact on their quality of life. Meanwhile, after conduction of educational program it observed that there was a highly significant improvement in their knowledge, practice, as well as their quality of life among female students. Conclusion: Selfcare guidelines about vaginal infection were effective in improving the knowledge, practices as well as the quality of life for nursing students with vaginal infection. Recommendation: Applying educational programs for adolescent females and their mothers to increase awareness about vaginal infection. Develop a special health center for adolescent females motivate them to seek prevention, early diagnosis and treatment of vaginal infection that may have positive impact on their future health and their QOL. Further research studies are needed to investigate and develop strategies to improve factors facing adolescent students to use reproductive health services.

Side effects of vaginitis can affect other aspects of health, which could be prevented by promoting a healthy related to vaginal health. Aim of the study. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the Education intervention guideline on knowledge and self-care practice for women with vulvovaginities. Design: A quasi- experimental design was adopted in the current study. Sample: A purposive sample of (130) women's were included in the current study. Setting: the current study was conducted at outpatient clinic affiliated at obstetric department at Benha University Hospital. Data collection: Two tools were used for data collection, first, interviewing questionnaire to collect data about the women' socio demographic characteristics and women's knowledge regarding vulvovaginities as definition, risk factors, complication, second tool, Self-Care Assessment Structured Interviewing Schedule as (Clean genital area after each toilet, dry after cleanliness) Results: the result of the present study should that the total knowledge was improved from (9.2%) at pre intervention to (86.2%) at post intervention phase. In addition there was demonstrates that, 87.7% of the women had an unsatisfactory level of self-care practices before the educational intervention. Meanwhile, after the educational intervention, 75.4% of them got a satisfactory level of self-care practices. Conclusion: Educational intervention was effective in improving the women's knowledge and self-care practices regarding vulvovaginities. Recommendations: Provide different educational programs regarding knowledge and self-care practice for women with vulvovaginities at different female health care settings.

“…In a similar study conducted in Udupi, the mean knowledge score of the SHG women had improved from 12.88 to 26.88, and the program was found to be effective (p<0.01) (Lobo, 2013). There was a signi icant improvement in the knowledge scores of the women after the teaching program in Uttarakhand (13.25 to 16.93) (Chauhan et al, 2014).…”

Reproductive tract infections (RTIs) are silent epidemics and put a heavy toll on women in developing countries. Women, because of their ignorance and socio-cultural inhibitions, hardly seek treatment for RTIs. Women self-help groups (SHGs) if adequately trained, can play an active role in creating awareness and promote healthy behaviours among women. The present study aimed to evaluate the Effectiveness of STAR (Self-help group Training to Alleviate Reproductive tract infection) program on knowledge, practices, skills and health-seeking behaviours on RTIs among self-help group women in the reproductive age group. A quasi-experimental (non-equivalent control group) study with repeated follow-up was done among 63 women belonging to the selected SHG units. Women in the intervention group (n=33) underwent a training program on RTIs and had regular monthly follow-up for 6months, and the comparison group (n=30) only had a routine follow-up. Post-test observations were conducted at the end of three months and six months. The data were analyzed using repeated-measures ANOVA using SPSS package version 16. There was a significant difference in the knowledge, practice, skill and health-seeking behaviour scores at different points of time (P<0.001). However, the between-group pairwise comparison revealed that the training program was effective in improving the mean knowledge (P=0.001), skill (P=0.014) and health-seeking behaviour (P=0.034) scores and had no effect on the practice score (P=0.74). The STAR program was found to be effective in improving the knowledge, skill and health-seeking behaviours of the self-help group women.
