Article Abstract

Objective: Aim: To investigate the quality of life of women who left Ukraine and those who did not leave their homes under the threat of war.

Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: We used the WHOQOL-100 questionnaire for quality assessment. 376 young women (aged 25-44) were interviewed using a Google questionnaire (WHOQOL BREF). The respondents were divided into 2 groups: group 1 - women who left the territory of Ukraine during the war (n-176); group 2 - women who did not leave their homes (n-200).

Results: Results: The general level of quality of life for group 1 (62.9% ± 9.3) was slightly lower than group 2 (66.7% ± 9.1). In terms of quality of life, group 2 prevails over group 1 in the domain of microsocial support.

Conclusion: Conclusions: Therefore, women who did not leave their homes during the full-scale invasion of Russia on the territory of Ukraine rate their quality of life higher than women who left the territory of Ukraine. Respondents of group 2 are more satisfied with their social support, sexual life, support from friends, enjoy life more than respondents of group 1.
