Introduction: Menopause, defined as the complete cessation of menstrual periods, occurs naturally in most women and is associated with the gradual loss of ovarian follicles. With the aging of the worldwide population in the coming decades, it is estimated that 1.2 billion women worldwide will be menopausal or postmenopausal by the year 2030.Prevalence of VMS alone is estimated at approximately 40 to 50 million women in the United States. Prevalence and severity generally increase with advancing reproductive stage, which ranges from late reproductive, early menopause transition, late menopause transition, to postmenopause. Currently, therapies targeted to treat a variety of menopausal symptoms are hormone-based. These therapies are generally more effective than non-hormonal treatments which generally treat a single symptom. However, hormone therapy (HT) is not indicated for women with past or existing breast cancer, past or existing estrogen-sensitive malignant conditions, undiagnosed genital bleeding, untreated endometrial hyperplasia, venous thromboembolic event history, past or existing arterial thromboembolic disease, untreated hypertension, existing liver disease, hypersensitivity to the active ingredients in HT, and porphyria cutanea tarda.Current guidelines recommend that HT is prescribed at the lowest effective dose and for the shortest duration, and be consistent with individual treatment goals among postmenopausal women. The present study title: A study to assess the effect of planned teaching programme on knowledge regarding vasomotor perimenopausal problems and their Remedial measures among women in selected areas. The objective of the study was to assess to identify knowledge regarding Perimenopausal problems and their remedial measures to determine the effect of planned teaching on knowledge regarding Perimenopausal problems and their remedial measures to find an association between knowledge on Perimenopausal problems and their remedial measures with selected demographic variables. Material and Methods: In present study, researcher adopted A Non probability purposive sampling technique was used. A structured knowledge questionaire and planned health teaching on vasomotor perimenopausal problems and their remedial measures was prepared and used for data collection. Data collection done on 60 sample. association was done by Fisher’s Exact test with selected demographic variable .Result: Analysis of data related to the effect of plan teaching on knowledge regarding vasomotor peri menopausal problems and their remedial measures. Majority of 86.7% of the women had poor knowledge (score 0-10) and 13.3% of them had average knowledge (score 11-20) regarding vasomotor peri menopausal problems and their remedial measures. In post-test, 10% of the women had poor knowledge (score 0-10), 81.7% of the women had average knowledge (score 11-20) and 8.3% of them had good knowledge (score 21-30). Conclusion :Association of vasomotor problems associated with Perimenopause and remedial measures with demographic variables was assessed using fisher’s exact test.Since the p-value corresponding to occupation is small (less than 0.05), null hypothesis is rejected hence occupation is the demographic variable which is found to have significant association with the knowledge of the women regarding vasomotor peri menopausal problems and their remedial measures.
