1I Katedry i Kliniki Połoznictwa i Ginekologii w Bytomiu.
Age of menarche, fertility, number of labours, body weight, physical and mental activity, and incidence of stress in everyday life were evaluated in 72 women with uterine myomas, aged 34-54 years. The control group consisted of 45 healthy women at similar age. It was demonstrated that overweight (p < 0.05, p < 0.001 in most groups studied) in combination with low physical activity and higher mental (stress producing) was a risk factor in the aetiology and pathogenesis of this disease. Fertility and number of labours as well as the age of menarche were unchanged (p > 0.05).
