Abstract

Legal abortion has adopted many beneficial measures to prevent the birth of fetuses with congenital anomalies and maintain the health of high-risk mothers. However, abortion has its own complications and, thus, most mothers need care in this regard. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of self-management model on behaviors related to the reproductive health of mothers after legal abortion. This clinical trial study was conducted on 72 women who had legal abortion with the permission from Isfahan forensic medicine. The intervention was conducted using the 5A self-management model. The control group received the usual health system cares. Data collection tool was a researcher-made questionnaire of behaviors related to reproductive health, which was completed before and two months after the intervention by the two groups. The total mean score of the behavior (P < 0.001) and its dimensions (Prevention of post-abortion complications with P = 0.01, Prevention of sexually transmitted infections, satisfactory sexual function and family planning with P < 0.001) in the intervention group two months after the outset of the intervention was significantly higher than before the intervention. The total mean score of the behavior (P < 0.001) and its dimensions (Prevention of post-abortion complications with P = 0.002, Prevention of sexually transmitted infections, satisfactory sexual function and family planning with P < 0.001) two months after the outset of the intervention in the intervention group was significantly higher than the control group. Based on the results, this educational model can be emphasized to promote reproductive health behaviors of women after abortion.
