Abstract

Introduction: The extent and effects of reproductive morbidities on health and quality of life of women in developing countries are evident. Measuring maternal and reproductive morbidities are suggested to be considered as indicators of maternal and reproductive health. This study aimed to assess PREVALENCE of reproductive morbidities including reproductive tract infections (RTIs), pelvic organ relaxation (POR), and abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) in Iran, to be a base for planning of necessary reproductive health care and education services.Methods: In this community-based descriptive study, 1239 women aged 18-45 years were recruited using a randomized cluster sampling method from four selected provinces in Iran. Data were collected using a questionnaire with demographic and fertility sections and an observational checklist for physical examination. Face and content validities as well as test-retest and inter-rater reliability of these tools had been assessed beforehand.Results: The PREVALENCE of RTIs, POR, and AUB were 37.6%, 40.4%, and 31%, respectively. Results demonstrated that 35.1, 34.5 and 9.6 percent of women experienced one, two, and three kinds of morbidities, respectively. Only 20.6% of participants had none of above-mentioned reproductive morbidities.Conclusion: Reproductive health screening programs are necessary for prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of reproductive morbidities. Achieving global definitions of reproductive indexes is necessary for estimating the PREVALENCE of reproductive morbidities in order to planning health care programs.
