Nurse-Led Self-Compassion Intervention for Women With Induced Menopause
Sponsor: Aya Ibrahim
Summary
This study evaluated the effectiveness of a nurse-led self-compassion intervention on self-compassion, menopausal symptom severity, and self-esteem among women with medically induced menopause. A parallel-group randomized controlled trial was conducted among 150 women recruited from the outpatient clinics of the Cancer Institute, Menoufia University, Egypt. Participants were randomly assigned to an intervention group (75 women) or a routine-care control group (75 women). The intervention consisted of eight weekly group sessions lasting 45-60 minutes each. Outcomes were assessed before the intervention, immediately after the eight-week intervention, and at two-month follow-up using the Self-Compassion Scale, Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, and Menopause Rating Scale.
