目的 了解宁夏高校女生经期健康知识、态度、行为及教育需求现状,并分析其影响因素,为宁夏地区高等院校开展经期健康教育和保健指导提供参考依据。方法 采用整群随机抽样的方法在宁夏3所高校共抽取2 703名女生进行不记名式问卷调查,采用Logistic回归分析探讨高校女生经期健康知识、态度、行为及教育影响因素。结果 宁夏高校女生中有26.97%的人非常了解经期知识,有51.54%的女生对“经期卫生保健对女性健康有帮助”持赞同态度,经期良好行为持有率为64.67%。有序Logistic回归分析结果显示,医学专业(OR=0.364,95%CI:0.307~0.432,P<0.001)、初潮年龄<12岁(OR=0.565,95%CI:0.366~0.872,P=0.010)的女生经期健康知识掌握较好;无序多分类Logistic回归分析结果显示,医学专业(OR=1.975,95%CI:1.486~2.626,P<0.001)的女生更倾向于对“经期卫生保健对女性健康是否有帮助”持赞同态度;二元Logistic回归分析结果显示,医学专业(OR=0.706,95%CI:0.597~0.835,P<0.001)、月经周期23~≤35 d(OR=0.651,95%CI:0.440~0.962,P=0.031)的女生健康行为较好。结论 宁夏高校女生在经期卫生的认知方面存在不足,经期卫生保健意识有待加强,学校进行相关教育和干预时要充分考虑薄弱环节,以有效提升在校女生的经期健康水平。

Objective To understand the current situation of menstrual health knowledge,attitude,behavior and educational needs of female students in Ningxia colleges and universities,and to analyze the influencing factors,so as to provide a reference basis for menstrual health education and health care guidance in higher education institutions in Ningxia.Methods A total of 2703 female college students from three universities in Ningxia were selected by cluster random sampling method and investigated by anonymous questionnaire.Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the influencing factors of health knowledge,attitude,behavior and educational needs of female students during menstruation.Results 26.97%of the female college students in Ningxia understood menstrual knowledge very well,51.54%of the female college students agreed with the attitude of menstrual health care that was helpful to women’s health,the rate of good menstrual behavior was 64.67%.The ordered Logistic regression analysis showed that students majoring in medicine(OR=0.364,95%CI:0.307-0.432,P<0.001)and age at menarche<12 years old(OR=0.565,95%CI:0.366-0.872,P=0.010)had better knowledge of menstrual health.Meanwhile,the outcome of unordered multicategorical Logistic regression analysis showed that female university students majoring in medicine(OR=1.975,95%CI:1.486-2.626,P<0.001)were more inclined to have a favorable attitude towards menstrual hygiene care as helpful for women’s health.Additionally,the results of binary Logistic regression analysis showed that female university students majoring in medicine(OR=0.706,95%CI:0.597-0.835,P<0.001)and menstrual cycles of 23~≤35 days(OR=0.651,95%CI:0.440-0.962,P=0.031)had better student health behaviors.Conclusion There were deficiencies in the cognition of menstrual health among college female students in Ningxia,and the awareness of health care during menstrual period needs to be strengthened.The university should sufficiently consider the weak links when carrying out relevant education and intervention,so as to effectively improve the health level of female college students in menstruation.
