This study surveyed 64 women with endometriosis and found that self-care is generally insufficient, with longer illness duration correlating to less self-care use, and heat, nutrition, and phytotherapy being perceived as most effective.

The study evaluated self-care practices among 70 adult women of reproductive age (18–49) diagnosed with endometriosis, using an online questionnaire distributed in a Facebook endometriosis group and analyzing 64 completed responses with descriptive and inferential statistics. The authors found that a larger proportion of respondents reported using no self-care actions, and they observed a statistically significant association between duration of endometriosis and the application of self-care behaviors, with longer disease duration linked to fewer self-care actions. Respondents rated heat applications, diet, and phytotherapy as the most effective self-care measures, while yoga and psychotherapy were rated less effective. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it specifically assesses endometriosis patients’ self-care practices and reports them as insufficient for managing symptoms and disease-related effects.

Abstract

Abstract. Endometriosis is a chronic, estrogen-dependent, incurable gynecological disease, the causes of which are still unclear. One of the most important factors in proper disease control is patient involvement in self-care. Well-directed self-care can help reduce the symptoms and damage caused by endometriosis. Aim. To evaluate the self-care of patients with endometriosis. A quantitative research was conducted, using a survey. The research was conducted on the Internet, on the social platform Facebook, in the endometriosis group. During the study, 70 adult women of childbearing age (18–49 years) with endometriosis were surveyed. 64 questionnaires were selected for data analysis. For descriptive statistics, percentage distribution of data is used. The rank and interval scales are used for analytical statistics. The Chi-square (χ²) criterion and a statistical significance of p<0.05 were used for the correlation between two attributes. Results and conclusions. A higher proportion of respondents do not use any self-care at all, and a statistically significant effect was found between duration of illness and use of self-care. The longer the duration of illness, the less self-care is used. It also found that the most effective self-care interventions are heat applications, nutrition and phytotherapy, while the least effective are yoga and psychotherapy. The study showed that self-care is insufficient in the management of endometriosis and its symptoms.

Endometrioze sergančių pacienčių savipriežiūros vertinimas Santrauka. Endometriozė – tai lėtinė, nuo estrogenų priklausoma, neišgydoma ginekologinė liga, kurios atsiradimo priežastys iki šiol nėra aiškios. Vienas svarbiausių veiksnių tinkamai ligos kontrolei yra sergančiosios įsitraukimas į savipriežiūrą, tikslingai pasirinkti ir taikomi savipriežiūros veiksmai gali padėti sumažinti endometriozės sukeliamus simptomus ir pažeidimus. Tyrimo tikslas – įvertinti endometrioze sergančių pacienčių savipriežiūrą. Atliktas kiekybinis tyrimas, taikant anketinę apklausą socialinėje platformoje Facebook, endometriozės grupėje. Tyrimo metu buvo apklausta 70 suaugusių vaisingo amžiaus (18–49 m.) moterų, kurios serga endometrioze. Duomenų analizei atrinktos 64 anketos. Aprašomajai statistikai taikomas procentinis duomenų pasiskirstymas, analitinei statistikai – ranginės, intervalinės skalės. Dviejų požymių sąsajoms naudotas chi kvadrato (χ²) kriterijus ir statistinio patikimumo reikšmė p < 0,05. Tyrimo rezultatai ir išvados. Didesnė dalis respondenčių visai netaiko jokių savirūpos veiksmų, nustatytas statistiškai reikšmingas ryšys tarp sirgimo trukmės ir savipriežiūros veiksmų taikymo. Kuo ilgesnė sirgimo trukmė, tuo mažiau taikoma savipriežiūros veiksmų. Taip pat nustatyta, kad efektyviausi savipriežiūros veiksmai, respondenčių nuomone, yra šilumos aplikacijos, mityba ir fitoterapija, o mažiau efektyvūs – joga ir psichoterapija. Tyrimas parodė, kad respondenčių savipriežiūra yra nepakankama valdant endometriozę ir jos sukeltus simptomus. Šis darbas apsaugotas Creative Commons priskyrimo 4.0 viešąja licencija.
