Llegó el día
Hoy toca exponer mi trabajo de fin de especialidad. Un trabajo que me ha costado mucho hacer y al que le he puesto mucho empeño y cariño. A ver que tal se da la oposición y que nota nos ponen. Una vez que hayamos descansado de todo lo relacionado con la especialidad, y además mi compañera del trabajo está embarazada, haremos un artículo científico a ver si nos lo publican en alguna revista de investigación, si eso pasa ya os lo comentaré.
Os dejo el título y resumen de mi trabajo en inglés para que os hagáis una idea.
Findning a Menstrual Protection that Fits ”Just Me”
- A focus group study of younger women's experiences.
Background: Women menstruate during their fertile age and need menstrual protection. This is experienced as something stressful and private that women feel the need to hide from others.
Aim: To describe younger women's experiences of menstrual protection.
Method: The study was carried out through a qualitative method with inductive approach. Data collection was done via three focus group interviews with 14 women in the ages between 17–29. Thematic analysis by Braun and Clarke was used.
Findings: A main theme was identified: Finding a menstrual protection that fits "just me", and three sub-themes: To talk and get information about menstrual protection, To choose from a large selection and To use different menstrual protection. The result described that women wish to receive good information about menstrual protection, and mostly from healthcare providers. Price, environment and hygiene are important in the choice of protection and women try different protections to find the protection that fits just her.
Conclusion: Finding a menstrual protection that fits "just me" is something women experience as a central part of their lives. Being able to talk about menstruation and having access to menstrual protection is considered a human right.
Key words: Menstruation, Menstrual Protection, Experiences, Focus Group, Thematic Analysis
