The purpose of this study was to identify factors affecting the depression of menopause women due to subjective health awareness.
This study was a descriptive research study that analyzed the data of the National Health and Nutrition Survey for 2014–2017. Weights were assigned through the IBM SPSS 25.0 program to generate a composite sample plan file and analyzed.
There was a significant difference between groups in all general characteristics (p <.05). In postmenopausal women, age, exercise, and psychological factors were found to be major factors affecting depression.
It is necessary to identify the extent to which depression is associated by dividing women into groups after menopause by age group instead of dividing them into one group.
Menopause, Middle age, Women, Depression, Subjective body Awareness
