    Purpose To determine the prevalence and risk factors associated with migraine and menstrual migraine in women of reproductive age. Method This multicenter cross-sectional study included 2049 women who were successfully contacted between May and December 2023. The data were collected via an online interview method using the Individual Identification Form, which was created by the researchers and consists of three parts. Results The mean age of the study participants was determined to be 24.19 +/- 7.76 years. The prevalence of migraine was found to be 16.4%, while the prevalence of menstrual migraine was 56.4%. A statistically significant relationship was identified between migraine diagnosis and a number of variables, including marital status, educational status, employment status, social security status, income status, family type, smoking habits, alcohol consumption and coffee intake (p < 0.05). A statistically significant relationship was found between menstrual headache and marital status, working in a gainful job, presence of social security, income status, family type, smoking, alcohol use and coffee consumption (p < 0.05). Conclusion Many sociodemographic characteristics and habits in women's daily lives are among the risk factors for migraine and menstrual migraine. It is advisable for health professionals to provide comprehensive counseling services to facilitate the adoption of healthy behaviors in relation to these risk factors.

    Aim This cross-sectional multicentre study aimed to determine the effect of interventions during vaginal birth for fear of childbirth. Methods In this cross-sectional and analytical study, 852 women who had a vaginal birth between 2019 and 2020 were enrolled. Data were collected using the Descriptive Questionnaire and Wijma Birth Expectation/Experience Scale Version B. Results The mean total Wijma Birth Expectation/Experience Scale Version B score of the women was 97.00 +/- 24.24, indicating severe and clinical levels of fear of childbirth. Moreover, 69.4% of the women had clinical, 18.6% had severe and 12% had moderate levels of fear of childbirth. During birth, women who had close supporters, who were allowed to move and who did not undergo amniotomy, enema, perineal shaving and electronic foetal monitoring had a low level of fear of childbirth. As the number of pregnant women in the labour room, frequency of vaginal examinations, duration of delivery/hour, severity of labour pain and negative perception of the approach of health professionals increased, the women's fear of childbirth increased. Fear of childbirth decreased as the frequency of antenatal follow-ups, number of births and satisfaction levels of the women increased (p < 0.05). Low income perception, irregular prenatal follow-up, severe labour pain and a long duration of labour were strong predictors of increased fear of childbirth. ConclusionsThe reduction of interventions in vaginal delivery and support from health care providers during delivery can be effective in reducing fear of childbirth.
