[Selected conditions influencing the frequency of prophylactic gynecologic visits].
The aim of the study was to estimate the frequency of prophylactic visits at gynaecologist among women and its correlation with: age, place of living, material status or kind of gynaecological illness. The study was carried out among 200 patients with different gynecological illnesses operated on in Department of Reproduction and Andrology University School of Medicine in Lublin. The study was carried out on the basis of author's questionnaire interview and analyses of medical documents. Participation in this study was voluntary and anonymous. The result showed that, 52% of women declared their regular (every half year and every year) visits at gynaecologist. Regularity of prophylactic visits depended on age, in favour of women under 35 year. The frequency of control visits was significantly higher among women living in the city. The majority (88.2%) of patients in the group of continuous medical therapy was the ones suffering from infertility. The education and material status did not influence the regularity of prophylactic visits at gynaecologist.
