Abstract

Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate the prevalence and related factors of metabolic syndrome in postmenopausal adult women in South Korea. Methods: Data of 678 postmenopausal adult women aged 19 to 64 were collected from the Eighth Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey in 2021 and analyzed by a complex sampling design using SPSS 20.1. Results: The prevalence of metabolic syndrome in postmenopausal adult women was 25.8%. The prevalence was 1.93 times (confidence interval [CI]=1.15~3.25, p=.014) higher for high school graduates, 2.55 times (CI=1.33~4.91, p=.005) higher for middle school graduates, and 2.90 times (CI=1.36~6.15, p=.006) higher for elementary school graduates, compared to college graduates. It was found that artificial menopausal women had 2.74 times (CI=1.18~6.38, p=.020) higher prevalence than natural menopausal women. In addition, women who perceived their health as bad were 1.90 times (CI=1.14~3.16, p=.014) higher than women who perceived their health as good, and women who did not muscle exercise more than twice a week had 1.87 times (CI=1.05~3.34, p=.034) higher prevalence than women who did muscle exercise. Conclusion: Therefore, in order to effectively prevent and manage metabolic syndrome in postmenopausal adult women, a focus must be placed on vulnerable groups to manage these factors.
