본 연구는 초등학생의 긍정적인 월경태도 형성을 위한 프로그램 개발의 기초연구로서, 초등학생의 월경에 대한 태도, 증상 및 대처방법을 파악하기 위해 시도된 서술적 조사연구이다. 초경의 평균연령은 12.3세였고, 월경에 대한 태도는 전체적으로 부정적인 태도를 보였으며 초경 경험군 2.93점으로, 비경험군 2.86점에 비해 상대적으로 긍정적인 태도를 보였으나 유의미한 차이는 없었다. 초경 경험군에서의 월경증상은 2.12점으로 중간점수인 3점보다 낮은 점수를 보여 월경 증상이 거의 없거나 보통으로 느끼고 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 월경증상의 하부요인 중 '통증'을 가장 많이 호소하였다. 또한 월경 시 대처방법으로 '따뜻한 물로 샤워한다', '휴식을 취하거나 잠을 잔다'를 가장 많이 선택하였으며, '비타민 B를 섭취한다', '진통제를 복용한다' 등의 약물복용 항목은 거의 선택하지 않았다. 본 연구의 결과를 토대로 하여 초등학생의 월경태도에 영향을 미치는 요인에 대한 깊이 있는 체계적인 후속연구와 월경에 대한 긍정적인 태도를 갖게 하기 위한 효과적인 월경에 대한 보건교육과 월경에 대한 증상과 대처방법을 선택하기 위한 교육 및 상담 등을 제언하고자 한다.

The investigation of the surface areas, volumes and sizes (circumference, length, breadth) changes has been performed on women during menstruation, non-menstruation, pregnancy and post-pregnancy periods. (1) During menstruation and non-menstruation periods: The subjects were 30 healthy women from 19 to 24 years of age. The changes of lower leg areas were measured using the paper replacement method, showing an increase of 0.71% in surface during the menstruation period. The changes of lower 1g volumes were measured by the water replacement method, showing an increase of 1,74% in volume during the menstruation period. The correlation between the surface area changes and the volume changes was of r=0.45. The greatest change among the four parts of the leg was found at the ankle in both experiments. We measured also the foot length(1), the ball of foot girth(2), the foot breadth(3), the instep height (4), the instep girth(5), the ankle girth(6), the calf circumference(7) and we found the greatest changes in(4)=3,92% in(5)=0.79% and in (7) =0.84%. (2) During pregnancy and post-pregnancy periods: The subjects were 3 women, two pregnants(both from the 24th to the 36th week of pregnancy during the experiment) and one post-pregnant(from the second week to the eighth week during the expriment). For the first two subjects, we measured only the last 6 items of the preceding experiments(foot length(1),ball of foot girth(2), (3), (5), (6), (7)), Showing the greatest changes in the instep girth(5) and the calf circumference(7). In the case of the post-pregnant subject, these two items (5) and(7) decreased sharply during the second, third and fourth week and remain approximately the same afterwards.

In order to find out whether Hand Acupuncture Therapy and Moxibustion Heat Therapy is effective to relieve dysmenorrhea syndrome, we performed a Quasi-experiment on a group of fourty females. The experiment was carried out during the period from April 20 to August 20, 1999. The group was divided into two sub-groups called "a Hand Acupuncture Therapy sub-group" and "a Moxibustion Heat Therapy sub-group" consisting of 20 females respectively. Hand Acupuncture Therapy and Moxibustion Heat Therapy were performed four times a week. Especially, in case of Moxibustion Heat Therapy, subjects were treated twice a times. The data analyzed by an SAS program. The results are as follows : 1) Hand Acupuncture Therapy and Moxibustion Heat Therapy are very effective to relieve dysmenorrhea syndrome. This study shows that in case of Hand Acupuncture Therapy sub-group, supposing that mean score of Menorrhalgia before treatment was 7.85, it became low to 4.50 when. subjects suffered the first menstruation and it was 2.50 at the second menstruation, and 1.60 at the third menstruation. In the mean score of Moxibustion Heat Therapy sub-group, Menorrhalgia before treatment was 7.85, it was 5.90 at the first menstruation(p<.05), and 3.00 at the second, and 1.85 at the third menstruation. 2) Among Hand Acupuncture Therapy subgroup, 9 subjects could hardly be relieved from the pain of dysmenorrhea at the first menstruation. So, they were treated additionally with the method of tonification and sedation of abdominal diagnosis of three constitution and became completely relieved at second menstruation. Meanwhile, 7 subjects among Moxibustion Heat Therapy also faced the same situation. So they were treated with Moxibustion on dorsum of hand and got effectiveness at the third menstruation after taking therapy. 3) Odinary dysmenorrhea syndrome are constipation, dizziness, anorexia, abdominal pain, lumbago, breast engorgement, abdominal distention, dysconcentration, nervousness, diarrhea, nausea & vomitting, apathy, restlessness, fatigue, aggression, leg pain, edema. After taking therapy, all of subjects were relieved from these dysmenorrhea syndrome at third menstruation. 4) All subjects were classified into five types of physical constitution with abdominal diagnosis of three constitution as follows: 18 cases of left kidney right yang excess, 8 cases of left yin right yang excess, 7 cases of left right kidney excess, 5 cases of left right yang excess, 2 cases of left yang right kidney excess.

Hemoptysis is a major reason for emergency department (ED) visits. Catamenial hemoptysis (CH), a rare condition of thoracic endometriosis, can cause recurrent hemoptysis but is difficult to diagnose in the ED due to the scarcity of cases and nonspecific clinical findings. We report a case of a 26-year-old woman who presented to the ED with recurrent hemoptysis since 2 years without a definite cause. Her vital signs and blood test findings were unremarkable. Chest computed tomography (CT) did not show any specific lesions other than a non-specific ground-glass opacity pattern in her right lung. She was on day 4 of her menstrual cycle and her hemoptysis frequently occurred during menstruation. Although there was no histological confirmation, based on her history of hemoptysis during menstruation and no other cause of the hemoptysis, the patient was tentatively diagnosed with CH and was administered gonadotropin-releasing hormone. She had no recurrence of hemoptysis for 3 months. While CH is difficult to diagnose in the ED, the patient's recurrent hemoptysis related to menstruation was a clue to the presence of CH. Therefore, physicians should determine the relationship between hemoptysis and menstruation for women of childbearing age presenting with repeated hemoptysis without a definite cause.

Methods: Data were collected using a structured questionnaire from 208 girls in 5th or 6th grade (90 who were menarche and 118 who were not). The study was a cross-sectional study. Data were analyzed using SPSS/WIN 18.0 program for descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation, and multiple regression. Results: There were significant differences in body image, menstrual knowledge and attitude between the two groups of students. Results from the multiple regression analysis revealed difference in related factors and in the magnitude of the relationship evaluated by standardized beta coefficients. Significant factors, listed by the magnitude of beta coefficients, among students in menarche were positive affect of menarche, self-oriented perfectionism-critical, negative affect of menarche. Significant factors among non-menarche students were menstrual knowledge and self-oriented perfectionism-critical. Conclusion: There are differences between menarche and non-menarche girls in attitude to menstruation and related factors. Based on the results of the present study, systemic health education according to differences between the two groups should be developed to foster positive attitudes to menstruation.

월경은 모든 여성에게 불가피한 현상으로 이 기간에 이르는 불편의 경감은 여성의 풍요로운 삶을 위한 중요한 과제이다. 본 연구에서는 일회용과 다회용 패드 생리대의 소비자 사용평가를 통하여 생리대 사용에 따른 실질적인 문제점을 파악하고 소비자의 니즈에 맞게 개선하기 위한 기초 정보를 제공하는 데 목적을 두었다. 연구결과, 월경에 대한 응답자의 증상은 긍정보다는 부정적인 측면이 우세하여 생리기간이 고통스러운 경험으로 인식되고 있었으며 일회용 생리대와 다회용 생리대의 디자인, 성능, 맞음새, 사용감, 관리에 대한 긍정적, 부정적 평가 내용에 차이가 있었다, 스왓분석을 통해 일회용 생리대는 사용 편리성이 강점인 반면, 착용감이 약점으로, 다회용 생리대는 착용감이 강점인 반면, 관리 불편이 약점으로 제기되었다. 이러한 결과를 반영한 감성 설계가 이루어진다면 소비자는 보다 쾌적한 생리 기간을 영위할 수 있으며 궁극적으로 생산업체에 수익을 가져오는 상승효과를 불러올 수 있으리라 기대한다.
