Abstract

Purpose of the study: To evaluate socio-psychological characteristics of women after early reproductive loss and to suggest some forms of psychological support for this category of patients. Material and methods. The sample is represented by 64 women of reproductive age with a primary episode of pregnancy loss. A medical and sociological interview and psychological questionnaire were conducted using the Spielberg-Khanin scale (State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, STAI). Results. The material of the pilot sample demonstrates the significance of the situationally conditioned psychoemotional state (ideas of self-blame and situationally conditioned anxiety) of women with early reproductive loss and shows the directions and forms of possible outpatient psychological intervention after experiencing perinatal loss (respiratory gymnastics, auto-training, neuromuscular relaxation, music and art therapy). Conclusions. In order to maintain mental well-being in women after early reproductive loss, a comprehensive integrative approach is needed, including the provision of medical care by an obstetrician-gynecologist and psychological support by a psychologist at an antenatal clinic.
