Aims: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between health literacy and special quality of life and body image in women undergone mastectomy in reproductive age.
Instruments and Methods: This cross sectional descriptive-analytical study was conducted on ۲۲۵ women in reproductive age (۱۵-۴۹) with breast cancer and having a mastectomy referred to Sina Hospital-breast surgery clinic, Breast Research Center, and Mahdieh Hospital from ۲۰۱۴ to ۲۰۱۵. A simple random sampling method as well as ۴ questionnaires including the Health Literacy for the Iranian Adults (HELIA), Standard questionnaire of the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC version ۳.۰), special edition of Breast Cancer (QLQ-BR ۲۳), and a Special questionnaire for body images was used. The data were analyzed by SPSS ۲۱ software, using Spearmanchr('۳۹')s correlation coefficient and one way ANOVA test.
Findings: There was a statistical significant relationship between job status, education, and health literacy of participants (p=۰.۰۰۱). The significant relationship was observed between health literacy and the overall quality of life (p=۰.۰۴۲). Fatigue and pain had the strongest impact on quality of life of patients. Also, there was a statistical significant relationship between the body image and education level.
