Prevalence of infertility and the effect of covariates on survival time to pregnancy: A nationally representative population based cross sectional study.

Objective: This study sought to estimate population level prevalence of infertility and explored whether time to pregnancy is related to selected factors.

Methods: This study's analysis was based on data collected from 2081 women who were sampled from participants of the 2016 Ethiopia Demographic and Health Survey based on risk of pregnancy criteria: age between 15 and 49 years, currently married or cohabitating, sexually active, not used contraception method during the 5 years before interview, not menopausal, and not pregnant. We used a current duration (CD) approach in which for each woman we calculated the length of time-at-risk of pregnancy (CD value) in months.

Menopausal symptoms and utilization of menopausal hormone therapy among women aged 40-60 years in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia: a cross-sectional study.

Background: The onset of menopause leads to diminished estrogen exposure, resulting in a high morbidity burden related to menopausal symptoms. Menopausal hormonal therapy is an effective therapy that offers more advantages than disadvantages for women aged less than 60 years or who have had menopause for less than 10 years.

Objective: This study aimed to assess the prevalence of menopausal symptoms, identify factors associated with menopausal symptoms, and assess the use of menopausal hormone therapy among women aged 40-60 who visited the gynecological clinics of three hospitals in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
