妇女的意见,更年期和激素替代疗法进行了探讨,使用问卷调查的妇女参加一个一般的做法谁有激素替代疗法的监督下,他们的医生。64名妇女(67%)作出了答复。虽然只有5%的妇女向她们的全科医生要求激素替代疗法,但大多数妇女表示她们得到了激素替代疗法的帮助。8%的妇女使用激素替代疗法主要是为了治疗更年期症状,只有6%的妇女主要是为了预防骨质疏松症。许多妇女被正确地告知激素替代疗法的影响,但错误的信念,其副作用可能表明需要进一步的健康教育。对进一步信息的渴望是惊人的:59%的女性希望获得有关激素替代疗法的进一步信息,80%的女性希望在更年期开始前获得更多有关更年期的信息。媒体似乎是有关保健事项的重要信息来源:61%的妇女从电视、杂志或报纸获得有关激素替代疗法的信息。媒体和卫生工作者在健康教育中的作用进行了讨论。
Women's views on the menopause and hormone replacement therapy were explored using a questionnaire given to women attending one general practice who were having hormone replacement therapy under the supervision of their doctor. Sixty four women (67%) responded. Although only 5% of women had requested hormone replacement therapy from their general practitioner the majority of women indicated that they had been helped by hormone replacement therapy. Eight per cent of women were using hormone replacement therapy primarily to treat menopausal symptoms with only 6% of women using it primarily as prophylaxis against osteoporosis. Many women were correctly informed about the effects of hormone replacement therapy but mistaken beliefs about its side effects may indicate the need for further health education. The desire for further information was striking: 59% of women wanted further information about hormone replacement therapy, and 80% of women would have liked to have had more information about the menopause before its onset. The media appeared to be an important source of information about health matters: 61% of women obtained information about hormone replacement therapy from either the television, magazines or newspapers. The role of the media and health workers in health education is discussed.
