简要总结
Menopause; cessation of menstruation due to cessation of follicular activity is the transition from the reproductive period to non-reproductive life. Considering that the average life expectancy is increasing, women spend most of their lives in the menopausal period. Women who have a positive attitude towards menopause have a positive body image, experience less depressive experiences, and the severity of menopause symptoms decreases. It has also been assumed that spiritual well-being is effective in reducing the severity of menopause symptoms and anxiety, supporting positive body image, and coping with losses.
Baduanjin exercise is a type of body mind exercise. It increases the production of life energy and distributes it to different aspects of the body.
It is thought that the baduanjin body-mind exercise to be applied to perimenopausal women will have positive effects on the spiritual well-being of menopausal women and their attitudes towards menopause. Thus, it is expected that women's transition and adaptation to the menopause process will be easier.
详细描述
This study will be carried out as a pre-test - post-test randomized controlled experimental study. The population of the research consists of female patients between the ages of 45-55 who are registered to a family health center located in a provincial center in the north of Turkey. Women who are in the perimenopausal period and meet the inclusion criteria according to the Staging of Reproductive Aging in Women (STRAW) criteria will be included in the study. The random.org program will be used to unbiasedly assign 60 women who meet the research criteria to the experimental and control groups.
The menopause adaptation program will be applied to the intervention regimen. This program, which will be applied to the experimental group, was prepared based on the Meleisin Transition theory. Since women's menopause is a transition process, the transition theory was preferred. Within the scope of the program, the experimental group will be given online menopause health education for the first 6 weeks and baduanjin exercise will be taught. For the next 8 weeks, individuals will be asked to practice the baduanjin exercise 3 times a week. Online consultation will be provided during this period.
The study will be completed in 14 weeks in total. No intervention will be applied to the control group. The study will be terminated after the post-test data is collected. Data will be collected using the Introductory Information Form, the Attitudes Towards Menopause Scale (MITÖ, Spirituality Index of Well-Being Scale).

Attitude Scale towards Menopause (MITÖ)

It was developed by Uçanok (1994) to measure the attitudes of women in different age groups towards menopause and its aftermath. There are a total of 20 statements in the scale, 2 positive and 18 negative. The scale is a four-point Likert type. For negative expressions, scoring is done in the opposite direction. The lowest score that can be obtained from the scale is 0 and the highest score is 80. It is accepted that the higher the scores above the average score of 40, the more positive the attitude.
