Abstract Objectives The prevalence of endometriosis among women of childbearing age is about 10–15%. Although many patients with endometriosis do not have any symptoms, they may suffer from dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, and chronic pelvic pain. our aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between the severity of symptoms of endometriosis with the spread of disease on ultrasonography as well as the stage of the disease. Results Regarding the various analyzes were performed, the cumulative size of posterior DIE less than 1 cm significantly correlated with minimal severity of dyspareunia and chronic pelvic pain. The incidence of dyspareunia was more in patients with complete stenosis of Douglas pouch comparing with cases with incomplete Douglas pouch stenosis. The incidence of severe and very severe pain in patients with Douglas pouch stenosis is relatively higher than patients without stenosis. This study demonstrated only dyspareunia is related to the stage of endometriosis and patients with dyspareunia are 5 times more at risk of a higher stage of the disease.

Abstract Objectives: About 10-15% of women of childbearing age have endometriosis. The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between the severity of symptoms of endometriosis and the spread as well as the stage of the disease on ultrasonography. The present cross-sectional study evaluates the relationship between the severity of endometriosis symptoms and the spread of disease on ultrasonography in patients with endometriosis.Results: Considering different analyses, the cumulative size of posterior Deep Infiltrative Endometriosis (DIE) (less than 1 cm) is significantly correlated with minimal severity of dyspareunia and chronic pelvic pain. The incidence of dyspareunia was more prevalent in patients with complete stenosis of Douglas pouch than those with incomplete stenosis. Furthermore, the incidence of severe and very severe pain in patients with Douglas pouch stenosis is relatively higher than that in patients without stenosis. Only dyspareunia is related to the stage of endometriosis, and patients with dyspareunia are five times more at risk of a higher stage of the disease. The severity of dyspareunia is related to the stage of endometriosis and the severity of Douglas pouch stenosis. The results showed a correlation between chronic pelvic pain and r-ASRM score (revised American Society for Reproductive Medicine score).

The present cross-sectional study evaluates the relationship between the severity of endometriosis symptoms and the spread of disease on ultrasonography in patients with endometriosis. Results Considering different analyses, the cumulative size of posterior deep infiltrative endometriosis (DIE) (less than 1 cm) is significantly correlated with minimal severity of dyspareunia and chronic pelvic pain. The incidence of dyspareunia was more prevalent in patients with complete stenosis of Douglas pouch than those with incomplete stenosis. Furthermore, the incidence of severe and very severe pain in patients with Douglas pouch stenosis is relatively higher than that in patients without stenosis. Only dyspareunia is related to the stage of endometriosis, and patients with dyspareunia are five times more at risk of a higher stage of the disease.

The aim of the study. Assess the importance of pregravid preparation and outcomes of pregnancy and childbirth, depending on the reproductive attitudes of women in the city of Omsk. Materials and methods. The study included 92 women who were divided into groups: group A (n=43) - women whose pregnancy was planned; group B (n=49) - women whose pregnancy occurred accidentally. Each group was divided into subgroups depending on age: from 18 to 30 and from 31 to 49 years. For each patient included in the study, a specially designed map was filled out. These patients were interviewed at the City Clinical Perinatal Center. Results. Comparative analysis revealed the relationship between the reproductive settings of women of childbearing age and the peculiarity of the course of pregnancy and childbirth in these patients. Summary. The majority of women of fertile age are married: in subgroup AA - 25 (96.2%), AB - 13 (76.5%), BA - 25 (92.6%), BB - 20 (91.0%). The predominant number of women of fertile age have one or more abortions: in subgroup AA - 12 (46.2%), AB - 6 (35.3%), in subgroups of comparison BA - 8 (29.6%), BB - 6 (27.3%). More than half of the women of fertile age surveyed have a history of untreated cervical pathology (from 40.8% to 64.7%). The course of pregnancy in women planning pregnancy in most cases proceeded without complications: in subgroup AA - 13 (50.0%), AB - 11 (64.7%). The most common cause of complicated pregnancy in women whose pregnancy occurred accidentally is the threat of spontaneous miscarriage: in subgroup BA - 15 (55.6%), BB - 16 (72.7%). The uncomplicated course of labor more often [subgroup AA - 19 (73.0%), AB - 12 (70.6%)] was observed in women whose pregnancy was planned and they were motivated to give birth to a healthy child.

Cervical cancer is the leading cause of death in the world, with 311,365 cervical cancer deaths. recorded globally in 2018. Cervical cancer is caused by the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV). This viral infection is often found in sexually active women who have multiple partners. Therefore, cervical cancer can be prevented by conducting early examination through Visual Acetate Inspection (IVA). The purpose of the literature review is to determine whether there is a relationship between theory of planned behavior and participation in IVA examinations in women of fertile age. The method uses Literature reviews from the Pubmed, Microsoft Academic, BASE and Google Scholar databases, published in 2015 to 2020, and manually selects and analyzes relevant articles. The results of the literature review show that of the 20 journals found and in accordance with the research questions, namely, 1 journal that discusses the Intention Relationship of the IVA test, 7 journals that discuss the Relationship of the IVA Test Behavior, 9 journals that discuss the Attitude Relationship of the IVA test, 3 journals that discuss the Relationship of Subjective Norms for the IVA test and from the 20 journals that were found active IVA examination, 4 journals and 16 journals that were not active performed the IVA examination. From the results of the analysis of the journal, it was found that there was a lack of knowledge and information about IVA tests so that women of childbearing age did not actively carry out IVA examinations, the importance of counseling and health education regarding early detection of cervical cancer, especially IVA tests, not only for women of childbearing age, but also for their husbands, so that they understand the importance of early detection of cervical cancer and can increase the intention, behavior, attitude and subjective norms towards the activity of the IVA test.

The objective: a study of the medical and social characteristics of women in reproductive age with chronic pelvic pain on the basis of retrospective analysis.Materials and methods. The analysis of medical documentation of 314 patients in reproductive age with a verified diagnosis of chronic pelvic pain (CPP) was performed on the basis of studying of case histories and outpatient cards. Data were analyzed: anthropometric data, age, body mass index, place of residence, gynecological pathology, duration and nature of the menstrual cycle, comorbidities, previous treatment, disease duration, pain intensity, bad habits, number of pregnancies and births, reproductive plans and other methods examination.Results. It was found that more than a third of women, who were treated for pathologies that cause CPP, need medical help again. 58 % of patients sought help for CPP for the first time, 42 % had already received treatment for CPP. Concomitant non-gynecological pathology is more often observed in such patients (48.7 %).The most commonly diagnosed were interstitial cystitis (42 %) and irritable bowel syndrome (34 %). The combination of gynecological, urological and surgical pathology was found in 22 % of patients. Patients with CPP had deficiency in vitamin D (68 % of the 162 patients tested for vitamin D) and had subjectively more severe pain. At the same time, the lack of routine examination of thyroid function and vitamin D status attracted attention. Simultaneously, women with CPP are much more likely than the general population to have infertility (56.4 %), and the incidence of miscarriage is twice as high as the population, with a tendency to recurrent pregnancy loss.Conclusions. Concomitant non-gynecological pathology, infertility, miscarriage, vitamin D deficiency and subjectively more severe pain are more common in women with chronic pelvic pain. However, the level of diagnosing thyroid pathology and determining the concentration of vitamin D in such patients is insufficient.
