Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the surgical menopause indications and sociodemographic characteristics of women. In this retrospective study, we analyzed the sociodemographic characteristics of women with indications for surgical menopause in 2010-2020. The R Version 4.1.1 (2021-08-10) software and logistic regression analysis were used to evaluate the data. A total of 704 women's data were obtained in this study. Surgical menopause indications were found to stem from bleeding (46.0%), cancer (28.3%), cancer risk (18.9%), and other causes (6.8%). Surgical menopause indications originating from cancer were increased by 0.08 times (95%CI 0.01-0.68) due to smoking, 0.45 times (95%CI 0.23-0.88) due to regular drug use, and 0.36 times (95%CI 0.19-0.69) due to the presence of chronic disease (p<0.05). More than half of the women with surgical menopause indications were between 41 and 46 years of age. Additionally, 54.9% of the women had a chronic disease. Therefore, it is recommended to plan preventive health services for morbidity and mortality risks that may develop due to surgical menopause.
