Aim: This research is being designed to determine the effect of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) education given to women on their quality of life. In this context, the aim of the project is; The aim is to determine the impact of the education given to women with PCOS on the quality of life of the training given to women with the disease, such as psychosocial and emotional status, fertility, sexual function, obesity and menstrual irregularity, and hair growth. Method: Within the scope of this research, quantitative research method is used as the research method. In addition, it is planned as a randomized controlled quasi-experimental, which is one of the quantitative research methods. In calculating the sample size, type 1 error, research power and effect size parameters are determined before the research begins. Studies generally need to have at least 80% power. In order to find a significant difference, it is calculated that there should be at least 30 students in each group at 80% power and 95% confidence level. Considering the possible risks, it is planned to include 70 women in total in 2 groups (study and control), with 35 women in each group. All individuals who want to respond to the survey are included in the sample. The process of finding a subject continues until the desired size is reached. In addition, during the data collection process, participants were asked; They are asked whether they are diagnosed with PCOS and those who answer "yes" are included in the sample. Within the scope of the research, the voluntariness of the participants is essential and both written and verbal consents are obtained from each participant through an informed consent form. "Personal Information Form" and "Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Quality of Life-50 Scale" created by the researchers were used as data collection tools.
Hypertension is an important public health problem all over the world due to its high prevalence and its association with increased risk of cardiovascular disease. At the same time, it is a condition in which acquired factors, genetic and metabolic disorders, characterized by increased intra-arterial blood pressure, occur together . According to the World Health Organization, hypertension is defined as systolic blood pressure of 140 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure of 90 mmHg or above According to the Arterial Hypertension Management 2018 Implementation Guide of the European Society of Cardiology and the European Society of Hypertension, it is estimated that there are more than 1 billion hypertension patients in the world and this number will reach 1.5 billion by 2025. In our country, there are approximately 20 million individuals with hypertension. It is thought to be Hypertension treatment is a lifelong process that includes lifestyle changes and patient education along with medical treatment.Turkish Endocrinology and Metabolism. The aim of hypertension treatment is to ensure that blood pressure decreases to the targeted level, to minimize target organ damage and complications caused by hypertension, to eliminate symptoms and reduce drug side effects, to ensure patient compliance with treatment and to provide self-management skills by enabling the patient to take an active role in his own treatment. The concept of self-management; It includes providing individuals with knowledge and skills regarding disease management, providing support to maintain the individual's self-care, supporting the decision-making process, and helping to recognize and cope with problems. The main goal in hypertension treatment is to control the patient's blood pressure. Achieving and maintaining self-management is also one of the most effective factors in controlling blood pressure. Inadequately treated and low self-management In hypertension patients, blood pressure control is inadequate and health risks increase. Therefore, all strategies implemented to increase self-management in hypertension patients also have positive effects on the individual's blood pressure control and disease prognosis.
