The purpose of this study is to present basic data to be used in the development of a sexual education program to create an affirmative sexual egoism. We classified the types of subjectivities and revelation attitudes of menstrual experience in 5th and 6th elementary school girls. The analytic method of data was a "Q-method" (William Stephenson). The results of this study classified four-types. The first type is an "open type". Girls of this type accepted menstrual experience as neither disease nor an embarrassment but as an important and natural course for a woman. The second type is the "concealing type". Girls of this type keep silent and conceal menstruation from persons because they consider it shameful or disgrace. The third type is the "conceited type". Girls of this type think that menstruation is painful-but only for them. Also, they accept such pains being 'grown-up'. The fourth type is the "tomboy type". Girls of this type want to be an eternal child; they hate being born a woman and think menstruation is troublesome. As a result of this research, we have concluded that it is necessary to educate girl students before they experience menstruation in order to develop positive attitudes towards sexuality and in so doing, aid them through adolescence.

본 연구는 여중생을 대상으로 건강행위 기반 월경전증후군 중재교육을 실시하고, 월경지식, 월경대처, 월경증상을 확인하고자 수행되었다. 비동등성 대조군 전후실험설계로 진행되었으며, 일 지역 2학년 여중생을 대상으로 실험군 31명과 대조군 33명 총 64명을 자료 수집하였다. 연구 결과에 따르면 건강행위 기반 월경전증후군 중재교육을 받은 실험군은 받지 않은 대조군보다 월경지식과 월경대처는 통계적으로 유의미하게 향상되는 것으로 나타났고, 월경증상은 감소하였으나 통계적으로 유의미한 차이를 보이지는 않았다. 따라서 여중생을 대상으로 한 건강행위 기반 월경전증후군 중재교육은 효과적이었다고 볼 수 있으며, 대다수 월경전증후군을 경험하면서도 적절한 중재요법을 적용하지 못하고 있는 여중생을 위해 바람직한 건강 행위를 기반으로 한 중재교육을 개발하고 적용한 점은 보건의료적인 측면에서 매우 의의가 있다고 할 수 있다.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of menstration among the influencing factors for the GnRH agonist (as G: depot goserelin 3.6 mg) therapy prior to the planned myomectomy for women who wanted to preserve their fertility. We reviewed total 48 patients. with the G therapy prior to the planned myomectomy from August 1st, 2005 to August 31st, 2006. The patients were classified by the G group (n=28) and the immediate surgery (as S) group (n=20). The G group (n=19) underwent the G therapy for 3 month courses, and then the efficacy was evaluated by menstruation and the myoma volumes. In the G group (n=19), therapy was effective, and the mean age was $32.4{\pm}6.5$ years. After the completion of G therapy, the mean volume of the myoma by ultrasonography was reduced to $85.2{\pm}71.2cm^3$ comparing of $430.6{\pm}248.8cm^3$ at first visit. The 11 patients had menstruation and the rest 8 patients with amenorrhea had less reduced volume of the myoma ($124.05{\pm}79.85cm^3\;v.s.\;329.41{\pm}234.0cm^3$ p<0.05). In the immediate S group, the myoma volumes by sonography was also checked for accuracy (${\alpha}=1.0$). As the result, the initial myoma volume had the positive correlations to the effectiveness with G therapy. However, the occurrence and frequency of the menstruation during the G therapy had a negative correlation. In conclusion, the use of G prior to the planned myomectomy was effective in reducing myoma volume and the menstruation.

The primary outcome was pelvic ultrasound findings of endometrial thickness. The secondary outcome measures were improvement in haemoglobin percentage, change in menstrual flow and menstrual pattern. The level of significance was 5%. Results and conclusion: The intragroup comparison showed that the mean endometrial thickness at baseline and after treatment in groups A and B was extremely significantly different (P<0.0001). The intragroup comparison showed the mean haemoglobin percent at baseline and after treatment in group, A was significantly different (P<0.0001). After treatment, 50% and 60% of participants had normal duration and menstrual blood loss after treatment from baseline in Groups A and B respectively. However, further, phase II and III randomized standard controlled trials in larger samples are recommended to assess the efficacy of these group medicines.

Purpose: This correlational study was performed to identify the impacts of maternal child rearing attitudes on the menstrual attitudes and the determinants of positive menstrual attitudes in female middle school students. Methods: With convenience sampling, 198 middle school female students were recruited living in one major city and its surrounding areas in Korea. Data was collected using a self administered questionnaire including menstrual attitudes and maternal child rearing attitudes from April 1 to July 15, 2008. Results: Among the Maternal child rearing attitudes, affectionate, achievement oriented and rational attitudes had positive correlations to a positive menstrual attitude, and an autonomous attitude had a negative correlation to a negative menstrual attitude. As determinants of positive menstrual attitudes, feeling of menarche, mother's response at first menstruation, and rational maternal child rearing attitudes were delineated and their explained variance for a positive menstrual attitude was 18.5%. There was no difference on menstrual attitudes by K clustering in terms of maternal child rearing attitudes. Conclusion: These results support the critical role of the mother. Especially desirable maternal child rearing attitudes in relation to a positive menstrual attitude would be affectionate, achievement oriented and rational for early adolescent girls. In further studies, considerations are needed for menstruation related education and research for early adolescents and active involvement of the mother & daughter together.

Objectives: In this paper, two cases which showed the meaningful results on the patients' chief complaints were analyzed. The patients were treated with the Mahwang-Haengin-Gamcho-seokgo-tang herbal medication based on Shanghanlun disease pattern identification diagnostic system. Methods: The patients were diagnosed based on Shanghanlun, disease pattern identification diagnostic system. In case 1, the change of menstruation cycle was noted and pre-menstrual discomforts were measured with Menstrual Distress Questionnaire(MDQ). In case 2, Quality of life questionnaire for adult Korean asthmatics (QLQAKA) was used to estimate the quality of the patient's life. Results: All the symptoms were improved after the Mahwang-Haengin-Gamcho-seokgotang treatment. In case 1, the menstruation cycle decreased to 30 days average. MDQ score decreased 143 to 103. In case 2, the change of the QLQAKA score as 1.647 average point is considered as a meaningful improvement. Conclusion: With great difference to a 'Symptom-Medicine' diagnostic system, the disease pattern identification diagnostic system seeks the pathologic pattern through the patient's whole life. More studies and multiple cases based on the diagnostic system are needed to prove this possibility later.
