Abstract

The aim of this study is to reveal the perceptions and attitudes of women in the centre of a province in the Black Sea region of Turkey towards menopause and their symptoms with regards to their socio-demographic properties.The participants were determined by the snowball sampling method. Data were collected according to the face to face interview method through house visits. The data form used consists of the descriptive qualities, Menopause Rating Scale and Scale of Attitude towards Menopause. Data were evaluated by a statistics package program, parametric and non-parametric tests were conducted, correlation analyses were applied, and the significance limit was accepted to be p<0.05.It was observed that the menopause symptoms and scores of participants were below average. It was determined that seeing oneself physiologically weak and having no knowledge about menopause were high in the attitude score; having a chronic disease, having no knowledge about menopause and using any medicine and HRT for complaints were high in the menopause symptoms evaluation score; living in a rural region, having a chronic disease and having no knowledge about menopause were high in the psychological symptom dimension which was statistically significant.The approach of the participants in the climacteric phase is mainly positive with low levels of symptoms. The evaluation of the menopause symptoms is related to the menopause attitude.
