Abstract To investigate the depression status of the perimenopausal women of Nanping city, and to analyze its related influencing factors. Methods: Stratified cluster sampling was used to investigate the current situation of women aged 45-55 in Nanping city. Questionnaires were issued to investigate the general situation, the personality characteristics, and the situations of depression and perimenopausal syndrome of the women. The relevant factors affecting depression of the perimenopausal women were analyzed. Results: Among 1000 perimenopausal women who had been investigated, the incidence of perimenopausal syndrome was 80.2%, which include 48.5% women with mild perimenopausal syndrome, 20.5% women with moderate perimenopausal syndrome, and 11.2% women with severe perimenopausal syndrome, and the rate of depressive symptoms of the women was 46.5%. The rates of divorce/widowhood, no health insurance, chronic disease, no exercise, with perimenopausal syndromes of the women with depression were significantly higher than those women without depression, but the rates of the harmonious marital relationship and the harmonious relationship with children of the women with depression were significantly lower than those women without depression (P<0.05). As for the personality characteristics scores, the neuroticism N and psychoticism P scores of the women with depression were significantly higher than those of the women without depression, but the inward and outward E scores of the women with depression were significantly lower than those of the women without depression (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the camouflage L score between the women with and without depression (P>0.05). The proportion of the women with representative depression by neuroticism N and psychoticism P scale was significantly higher than that of the women without depression, and the proportion of the introversive women with depression by introversion E scale was significantly higher than that of the women without depression (P<0.05). Multiple regression analysis showed that divorced/widowed, chronic diseases, perimenopausal syndrome, poor marital relationship, and poor relationships with children, typical neuroticism, typical mental quality, and introversion of the postmenopausal women were the risk factors affecting their depressive symptoms, but exercise regularly and extroversion of the postmenopausal women were the protective factors affecting their depressive symptoms (all P<0.05). Conclusion: The detection rate of depressive symptoms of the perimenopausal women in Nanping city is high, which suggests that the relevant management departments should pay attention to. And the perimenopausal women with high risk factors of depression should be given necessary psychological counseling in time, so as to reduce the occurrence of perimenopausal depression.
