Abstract:

Introdução: No Brasil, como em outros países, obesidade e disfunção sexual são consideradas problemas de saúde pública pela alta prevalência e por estarem relacionadas com hipertensão arterial, diabetes, doenças cardiovasculares, transtornos depressivos, outras morbidades e prejuízos na qualidade de vida dos indivíduos. Em geral, há poucos estudos sobre resposta sexual, obesidade e qualidade de vida em mulheres, e, na maioria deles, as pesquisas são realizadas com pacientes portadoras de doenças crônicas. Objetivos: Avaliar a resposta sexual, as disfunções sexuais e a qualidade de vida de mulheres obesas sem outras morbidades associadas e com parceiros não portadores de disfunção sexual. Métodos: Foram selecionadas 37 mulheres obesas (IMC = 30-39,9 Kg/m2) sem outras morbidades, com idade acima de 18 anos, não menopausadas, com parceiro funcional e relacionamento estável. Os parceiros foram avaliados pelo questionário QS-M. Considerando critérios para exclusão de doenças, as pacientes foram submetidas aos seguintes exames laboratoriais: glicose, colesterol e frações, triglicérides, TSH, prolactina, testosterona total, SHBG e testosterona livre. Também foram avaliadas por entrevista clínica e, posteriormente, pelos questionários QS-F, IWQOL-Lite, BDI e HAM-A. Resultados: Das 37 pacientes, 4 (10,8%) foram consideradas disfuncionais (QSF 60) e 33 (89,2%) apresentaram desempenho sexual satisfatório (QS-F 60). Dentre as disfunções sexuais, a diminuição do desejo sexual e a disfunção do orgasmo comprometeram 100% das pacientes; a disfunção de excitação 75%, o vaginismo 50% e a dispareunia 25%. Não houve correlação estatisticamente significativa entre o IMC e o QS-F (r=-0,12; p=0,470). O IWQOL-Lite total, com escore máximo de 155 pontos, variou de 31 a 116 pontos, com mediana de 60,0 pontos. Houve correlação estatisticamente significativa entre o QS-F e os domínios do IWQOL-Lite vida sexual, trabalho e o total. Verificou-se correlação estatisticamente significativa entre o IMC e a QV (r=-0,41; p=0,012). Ocorreu correlação negativa e estatisticamente significativa entre o QSF e o BDI (r= -0,37; p= 0,025), e o HAM-A (r=-0,39; p=0,016). Conclusões: Mulheres obesas sem outras morbidades mostraram um desempenho sexual satisfatório, e não houve correlação entre a obesidade e a presença de disfunção sexual. O melhor desempenho sexual foi associado com a melhor qualidade de vida. Quanto mais obesas, pior a qualidade de vida das pacientes. Quanto melhor o desempenho sexual, menor a possibilidade de depressão e ansiedade
Introduction: In Brazil, as in other countries, obesity and sexual dysfunction are considered public health problems because of their high prevalence and association with high blood pressure, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, depressive disorders, other morbidities, and impaired patient quality of life (QoL). In general, there are few studies on sexual response, obesity, and QoL in women, and in most of these studies, assessments are conducted with patients with chronic diseases. Aims: To assess sexual response, sexual dysfunction, and QoL of obese women without other associated morbidities and partners without sexual dysfunction. Methods: We selected 37 non-menopausal, obese women (body mass index [BMI] = 30-39.9 Kg/m2) without comorbidities, aged > 18 years, with functional partners and stable relationship. The partners were assessed by the SQ-M. Considering the disease exclusion criteria, the patients underwent the following laboratory tests: glucose, cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein, triglycerides, thyroid-stimulating hormone, prolactin, total testosterone, sex hormone-binding globulin, and free testosterone. They were also assessed in a clinical interview and subsequently, by the Sexual Quotient-Female Version (SQ-F), Impact of Weight on the Quality of Life (IWQOL)-Lite, Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), and Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A) questionnaires. Results: Of the 37 patients, 4 (10.8%) were considered to have sexual dysfunction (SQ-F60), and 33 (89.2%) had satisfactory sexual performance (SQ-F60). Among those with sexual dysfunction, all patients experienced decreased sexual desire and orgasm dysfunction, 75% experienced arousal dysfunction, 50 % experienced vaginismus, and 25 % experienced dyspareunia. No statistically significant correlation was noted between BMI and SQF (r= -0.12; p = 0.470). The total IWQOL-Lite, with a maximum score of 155 points, ranged from 31 to 116 points, with a median of 60.0 points. A statistically significant correlation was observed between the sex life, work, and total domains of the SQ-F and IWQOL-Lite questionnaires, and between BMI and QoL (r = -0.41; p = 0.012). A statistically significant negative correlation was noted between the SQ-F and BDI (r = -0.37, p = 0.025) and HAM-A (r = -0.39, p = 0.016) results. Conclusions: Obese women without comorbidities showed satisfactory sexual performance; no correlation was found between obesity and sexual dysfunction. The best sexual performance was associated with a better QoL. Increase in obesity was associated with a deteriorated QoL of patients. Superior sexual performance was found to be associated with a low possibility of depression and anxiety

Abstract:

Após o sucesso de vendas do Viagra, medicamento indicado para o tratamento da disfunção erétil, lançado em 1998, houve uma rápida proliferação de artigos, livros e encontros sobre as disfunções sexuais femininas. Desde 2000, um intenso debate sobre o envolvimento da indústria farmacêutica na produção biomédica sobre as disfunções sexuais femininas e a concomitante busca por um medicamento similar ao Viagra destinado às mulheres tem envolvido profissionais de diferentes disciplinas. Esta dissertação teve como objetivo investigar os discursos científicos sobre as disfunções sexuais femininas, através do exame dos artigos publicados no periódico Archives of Sexual Behavior, desde sua fundação, em 1971, até 2007. O periódico foi escolhido por sua legitimidade neste campo de saberes, por abranger um amplo período (36 anos) e seu caráter multidisciplinar. Pretendeu-se investigar quando, como e por quais grupos profissionais as disfunções sexuais femininas foram descritas e abordadas no periódico. No caso das chamadas disfunções sexuais, as descrições científicas, que vêm aumentando significativamente nos últimos anos, dão origem a prescrições de terapias, medicamentos, intervenções cirúrgicas, programas de educação sexual e políticas públicas. Ou seja, subjacente a esse discurso, que afirma ser empírico e imparcial, estão processos que se encontram muito além dos limites de um laboratório ou das atividades de um pesquisador. Buscou-se, assim, pensar a produção científica como produto de articulações e negociações que se desenrolam em esferas diversas, envolvendo processos culturais, sociais, econômicos e também cognitivos ou científicos, em contraposição às concepções que caracterizam a ciência como um projeto que apenas revela verdades. Para tanto, foi apresentado o contexto do surgimento de uma ciência da sexualidade, no decorrer do século XIX e, em seguida, o contexto no qual emergiram os discursos sobre as disfunções sexuais femininas, o que propiciou sua emergência naquele dado momento, o modo como foram definidas e por quem, como se articularam a processos sociais, econômicos e culturais e que transformações sofreram ao longo dos anos.
After the sale success of Viagra, a medicament indicated for the treatment of erectile dysfunction, which was launched in 1998, there was a fast proliferation of articles, books and meetings on female sexual dysfunctions. Since 2000, an intense debate about the involvement of the pharmaceutical industry in the biomedical production related to female sexual dysfunctions and the simultaneous search for a medicament similar to Viagra aimed to women has been involving professional from different areas. The goal of this dissertation was to investigate scientific discourses on female sexual dysfunctions through the analysis of articles published in the periodical Archives of Sexual Behavior, since its foundation in 1971 until 2007. The periodical was chosen due to its legitimacy in this field of knowledge, for covering a vast period (36 years) and for its multidisciplinary nature. The intention was to locate when, how and by which professional groups female sexual dysfunctions were described and dealt with in the periodical. In the case of the so-called sexual dysfunctions, scientific descriptions, which have been significantly increasing in recent years, originate therapeutic prescriptions, medicaments, chirurgical interventions, sexual education programs and public policies. That is, subjacent to this discourse, which poses as empirical and impartial processes were found that reach quite beyond the limits of a lab or the activities of a researcher. Therefore, the aim was to think of the scientific production as a product of articulations and negotiations unfolded in diversified domains and involving cultural, social and economical processes, as well as cognitive and scientific ones, in contrast to the conceptions that characterize science as a project that only brings about the truth. For this, the context in which a science of sexuality emerged throughout the 19th Century was presented, followed by the context in which the discourses on female sexual dysfunctions appeared: what has facilitated their emergence in that given moment, how and by whom were they defined, how were they articulated to social, economical and cultural processes and which transformations they suffered throughout the years.

Abstract:

Since the late 1990s, researchers have reported a high degree of sexual dysfunction among American women that is associated with significant negative consequences (e.g., reduced quality of life and sexual satisfaction). In addition, sexual satisfaction is a primary factor in marital stability. Because of the widespread impact on both individual well-being and marital relationships, female sexual dysfunction is a significant public health problem. Most research has supported the predominance of psychocultural factors in women's sexual issues. Authenticity, defined by Kernis and Goldman as acting in accord with one's natural inclinations, is associated with increased well-being, but researchers have often overlooked it in the literature on female sexual dysfunction. This study, guided by Kernis and Goldman's authenticity theory, argued that gender culture impairs the ability of women to be authentic in the sexual realm, and, thereby, increases the risk of sexual problems. The purpose of this research study was to examine the relationship between authenticity, as measured by The Authenticity Inventory, Version 3, and female sexual dysfunction, as measured by The Female Sexual Function Index and The Female Sexual Distress Scale, Revised, in a group of 55 women attending an online university. The hypothesis was that women with higher rates of dysfunction and/or distress would score lower on authenticity. The results from a regression analysis did not reach significance and failed to confirm the hypothesis; however, there was an association between distress and dysfunction. This study contributes to social change by examining an association between authenticity and female sexual dysfunction that is of help to researchers and therapists working with women in the area of sexual health.

Abstract:

The comorbidity between female sexual dysfunction (FSD) and major depressive disorder (MDD) is well documented; however, the mechanism(s) underlying the relationship between these disorders has not been defined. The literature has associated the adrenal hormones cortisol and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) with FSD and MDD, suggesting a biological mechanism that may elucidate the comorbidity between these disorders. Based on evidence pointing to a high cortisol/DHEA ratio (C/D Ratio) in MDD and low DHEA in FSD, this study investigated if the potential association between a high C/D Ratio and FSD would be greater for women with a history of MDD when compared to women without a history of MDD. Two groups of women (MDD history group; control group), each with a range of sexual function, collected saliva samples, completed questionnaires, and participated in a clinical interview and a psychophysiological assessment. Results did not support the hypothesis that the relationship between the C/D Ratio and sexual function would be greater for women with a history of MDD. Relevant to the effects of hormones on sexual function, a higher C/D Ratio was associated with lower frequency of sexual activity and lower sexual assertiveness. Results also showed DHEA positively associated with overall frequency of sexual activity, while cortisol was associated with lower subjective assessment of sexual desire/arousal prior to erotic stimuli. Lastly, secondary analyses revealed a positive association between DHEA and frequency of sexual activity, which was mediated by women's sexual desire. These results suggest that the effects of the C/D Ratio on FSD are not associated with a history of MDD. Results also point to contrasting roles for C/D Ratio and DHEA in FSD. In particular, a high C/D Ratio may have inhibitory effects on frequency of sexual activity and sexual assertiveness, while high DHEA may have facilitatory effects on sexual activity frequency through heightened sexual desire. Lastly, high cortisol may predispose women to have a negative assessment of sexual stimuli. These findings contribute to a further understanding of the roles of the C/D Ratio, DHEA, and cortisol in female sexuality and offer support for future studies investigating the role of these hormones in FSD.

Abstract:

Bakgrund: Det finns många olika tillstånd som kan leda till att en person får en tarmstomi, och detta kan påverka en persons syn på den egna kroppen. En persons kroppsuppfattning är starkt kopplad till sexualiteten som är en viktig del i människors liv. Stomioperationer kan även ge fysiska skador som medför problem i opererade människors sexualliv. Patienter med stomi finns i alla vårdinriktningar, och det är därför viktigt för alla sjuksköterskor att kunna bemöta dem. Syfte: Syftet var att belysa hur patienter med enterostomi upplever sin sexualitet. Metod: Metoden var en litteraturöversikt där 15 vetenskapliga artiklar granskades, varav fem var kvalitativa, nio kvantitativa och en använde mixad metod. Artiklarna söktes fram genom kombinationer av olika sökord i databaserna CINAHL Complete och Pubmed med ett tidsspann på år 2008-2017. Resultat: I resultatet kunde fyra huvudteman och sex underteman identifieras. De huvudteman som hittades var En förändrad kropp, Fysisk sexuell funktion, Ett förändrat sexliv och Stöd från omgivningen. Resultatet visade på att många patienter upplever problem med sin sexualitet relaterat till stomin, både fysiska problem och hinder som följd av patientens egna tankar om sin stomi. Ett ökat behov av stöd och information kunde också identifieras hos patienterna, både från en eventuell partner, men även från sjukvårdens sida. Diskussion: Resultatet diskuteras med utgångspunkt i Parse's teori om humanbecoming. I diskussionen tas upp teman kring hur stöd och information från vården saknas av patienterna. Även bristen på forskning kring kvinnors sexuella upplevelser med stomi i jämförelse med den forskning som finns kring män diskuteras.
Background: There are many reasons as to why a person receives a bowel ostomy, and this can affect the person’s view of their own body. A person's perception of the body is strongly linked to sexuality that is an important part of people's lives. Stoma surgery can also cause physical damage that causes problems in the sex life of the operated person. Patients with stoma will appear in all care settings, and it is therefore important for all nurses to be able to treat them. Aim: The aim was to illustrate how patients with an ostomy experience their sexuality Method: The method was a literature review where 15 scientific articles were reviewed, five of which were qualitative, nine quantitative and one used mixed method. The articles were identified through combinations of different keywords in the databases CINAHL Complete and Pubmed with a time span of the years 2008-2017. Results: In the results four main themes and six sub themes could be identified. The main themes were A Changed Body, Physical Sexual Function, A Changed Sex Life and Support from the Surroundings. The results showed that many patients experience problems with their sexuality related to their stoma, both physical problems and obstacles as a result of the patient's own thoughts about one's stoma. An increased need for support and information was also identified by the patients, both from an eventual partner and from the healthcare. Discussion: The result is discussed based on Parse's theory of humanbecoming. The discussion addresses topics about the lack of support and information for patients from the healthcare. The lack of research into women's sexual experiences with a stoma in comparison to the research that exists around men is also discussed.

Abstract:

Sexualiteten är en grundläggande del av att vara människa och sexuell hälsa är en viktig del i holistiskt vårdande. Fler kvinnor än män lider av sexuell dysfunktion. Trots detta adresserar sjuksköterskor sällan kvinnors sexuella hälsa. Syftet med studien var att belysa kvinnors upplevelser av sexuell dysfunktion. För att svara på syftet genomfördes en allmän litteraturstudie. En systematisk litteratursökning resulterade i 14 resultatartiklar som granskades kritiskt. I databearbetningen framkom tre kategorier: Oförmåga att leva upp till sociala förväntningar, Dysfunktionens påverkan på hälsan och Behov av stöd. Resultatet visade att kvinnor med sexuell dysfunktion upplevde sociala förväntningar som med sexuell dysfunktion blev omöjliga att leva upp till. Kvinnorna uttryckte att dysfunktionen påverkade hälsan och det framkom även ett behov av stöd från såväl partnern som sjukvården. Sjukvårdens bekräftelse av dysfunktionen beskrevs kunna minska de upplevda förväntningarna. Att omdefiniera sexualiteten kunde verka stödjande för att hitta nya vägar till sexuell hälsa. Sjukvården beskrevs vara den mest pålitliga informationskällan och kvinnor uttryckte ett stort förtroende för sjuksköterskeprofessionen. Utifrån resultaten i denna studie bedöms sjuksköterskor ha stora möjligheter att stödja kvinnor till sexuell hälsa. Sjuksköterskor behöver rutinmässigt lyfta frågan om sexualiteten. Sexuell hälsa behöver även vara ett viktigt inslag i sjuksköterskeutbildningen så att sexualitet blir lika självklart att adressera som t.ex. tobaksvanor och sömn.
Sexuality is a fundamental part of being human and sexual health is an important part of holistic care. More women than men suffer from sexual dysfunction. Nevertheless, nurses rarely address women's sexual health. The purpose of the study was to highlight women's experiences of sexual dysfunction. In response to the purpose, a general literature study was conducted. A systematic literature search resulted in 14 results critically reviewed. Data processing revealed three categories: Inability to live up to social expectations, The impact of dysfunction on health and The need for support. The result showed that women with sexual dysfunction experienced social expectations that with sexual dysfunction became impossible to live up to. The women expressed that dysfunction affected health and there was also a need for support from both the partner and the healthcare sector. The healthcare confirmation of dysfunction was described to reduce the perceived expectations. Redefining sexuality could be supportive in finding new ways of sexual health. Healthcare is considered to be the most reliable source of information and women experience a high level of confidence in the nursing profession. Based on the results of this study, nurses are expected to have great opportunities to support women for sexual health. Nurses need to routinely raise the issue of sexuality. Sexual health also needs to be an important part of nursing education so that sexuality becomes as obvious as addressing, for example, tobacco habits and sleep.

Abstract:

Persistent Genital Arousal Disorder (PGAD) is a complex, poorly understood condition characterized by unremitting, unwanted, distressing genital arousal which occurs frequently and for extended periods of time, often in the absence of sexual stimuli. The pathophysiology is unknown. Researchers have hypothesized underlying disorders of neurological, vascular, pharmacological and psychological origins. Possible causalities have been suggested including anxiety disorder, SSRI use, and pudendal nerve neuropathies among others. Despite the uncertainty of etiology, other aspects of the disorder are clearer, including distress and poor quality of life for many. In this study, I used a biopsychosocial model to examine three potential psychological predictors 'depression, stress, and anxiety' as well as moderators including erotophobia and perceived partner support on a sample of 51 women with PGAD. Quantitative survey methodology was used to collect information from women with PGAD who had sought care for their condition from a sexual medicine specialty clinic (San Diego Sexual Medicine) and members of an online PGAD support group. Results of the study indicated depression as the most significant predictor of distress of the three psychological variables under study. Neither erotophobia nor perceived social support moderated any of the psychological factors studied. Scores on the Female Sexual Distress Scale-Revised demonstrated clinically important levels of distress. The findings highlight the need for a biopsychosocial treatment approach to the condition, including psychological therapy. Implications for social change include the preservation of quality of life and reduced depression rates in women with PGAD.

Abstract:

Breast cancer is a public health problem in the world, it is estimated that more than 1 million women are diagnosed with the disease each year. It is most frequent in all regions of the country except in the north. With this, the mastectomy woman experiences a moment of emotional and sexual weakness, as the breast, symbol of femininity, plays an important role in the exercise of sexuality. The objectives of this study were to assess female sexual dysfunction in a group of women who underwent mastectomy and not mastectomy from the application of the Female Sexual Function Index; determine the incidence of female sexual dysfunction among women with mastectomies mastectomy and not women; and the correlation between the scores of the FSFI and personal history, clinical signs, symptoms and complaints related to sexuality in both groups. Developed a cross-sectional comparative study conducted in the Integrated Regional Oncology Center (CRYO), Association of Women in CearÃ Mastectomized - Touch of Life and the Center for Family Development (CEDEFAM). . Data collection occurred in the period January-February 2014 As the sample consisted of two groups: 73 women who underwent mastectomy and 62 women without a diagnosis of breast cancer. The Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), and a socioeconomic questionnaire and gynecological obstetric was applied. Descriptive statistics (absolute and relative frequencies, mean and standard deviation) was performed and the means to test the F Snedecor test (ANOVA) was applied. Most women with mastectomies investigated concentrated in the age group above 42 years (75.3%), while non-mastectomy women concentrated in the age group 18-36 years (66.1%). When analyzing the prevalence of sexual dysfunction in this study it was observed that was 55.6%. It was observed that the group of women with breast CA only field lubrication statistically significant when compared with age. Regarding monthly sex in the group of women who underwent mastectomy, it can be noticed that there was a statistically significant correlation in all domains of FSFI scale, except the pain domain (p> 0.05). Introducing the positive test r, this shows that the more sex these women have greater desire, arousal, lubrication, orgasm and satisfaction. The Cronbach alpha of the FSFI was 0.95 indicating high internal consistency and construct validity was assessed by the coefficient of linear correlation (p = 0.0001), demonstrating correlation between domains of scale. Therefore, we conclude that the nurse who assists women in general should provide quality care for all the obstacles are minimized to promote quality of life and sexual.
O cÃncer de mama Ã um problema de saÃde pÃblica no mundo, pois se estima que mais de 1 milhÃo de mulheres sejam diagnosticadas com a doenÃa a cada ano. Ã o mais frequente em todas as regiÃes do paÃs, exceto na RegiÃo Norte. Com isso, a mulher mastectomizada vivencia um momento de fragilidade emocional e sexual, jÃ que a mama, sÃmbolo de feminilidade, exerce importante papel no exercÃcio da sexualidade. Os objetivos deste estudo foram avaliar a disfunÃÃo sexual feminina em um grupo de mulheres mastectomizadas e nÃo mastectomizadas a partir da aplicaÃÃo do Female Sexual Function Index; verificar a incidÃncia da disfunÃÃo sexual feminina entre as mulheres mastectomizadas e das mulheres nÃo mastectomizadas; e verificar a correlaÃÃo entre os escores da FSFI e os antecedentes pessoais, clÃnicos, queixas e sintomas relacionados Ã sexualidade nos dois grupos avaliados. Desenvolveu-se um estudo transversal, comparativo realizado no Centro Regional Integrado de Oncologia (CRIO), na AssociaÃÃo Cearense das Mulheres Mastectomizadas - Toque de Vida e no Centro de Desenvolvimento Familiar (CEDEFAM). A coleta de dados ocorreu no perÃodo de janeiro a fevereiro de 2014. Sendo a amostra composta por dois grupos: 73 mulheres mastectomizadas e 62 mulheres sem diagnÃstico de cÃncer de mama. Foi aplicado a Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), e um questionÃrio socioeconÃmico e gineco-obstÃtrico. Foi realizada anÃlise estatÃstica descritiva (frequÃncias absoluta e relativa, mÃdia e desvio padrÃo) e para se testar as mÃdias foi aplicado o teste F de Snedecor (ANOVA). A maioria das mulheres mastectomizadas investigadas concentrou-se na faixa etÃria acima de 42 anos (75,3%), enquanto as mulheres nÃo mastectomizadas concentrou-se na faixa etÃria de 18 a 36 anos (66,1%). Ao analisarmos a prevalÃncia de disfunÃÃo sexual neste estudo observa-se que foi de 55,6%. Foi possÃvel observar que no grupo de mulheres com CA de mama somente o domÃnio lubrificaÃÃo apresentou significÃncia estatÃstica quando comparado com a idade. Quanto Ãs relaÃÃes sexuais mensais no grupo das mulheres mastectomizadas, percebe-se que houve correlaÃÃo estatisticamente significante em todos os domÃnios da escala FSFI, exceto no domÃnio dor (p>0,05). Apresentando o teste r positivo, isso demonstra que quanto mais relaÃÃes sexuais essas mulheres tiverem maior serÃ o desejo, a excitaÃÃo, a lubrificaÃÃo, o orgasmo e a satisfaÃÃo. O alfa de Cronbach da FSFI foi de 0,95 indicando alta consistÃncia interna e a validade de construto foi analisada por meio do coeficiente de correlaÃÃo linear de Pearson (p=0,0001), demonstrando correlaÃÃo entre os domÃnios da escala. Logo, podemos concluir que o enfermeiro que assiste a mulher de um modo geral deve prestar assistÃncia qualificada para que todos os obstÃculos sejam minimizados para favorecer a qualidade de vida e sexual.

Abstract:

Atualmente a International Continence Society (ICS) define IU como qualquer perda involuntária de urina e é considerada um problema social e/ou de higiene valorizando a queixa das pacientes. A prevalência da IU em mulheres adultas tem sido estimada entre 10 e 40 %, e pode piorar com o envelhecimento, paridade e obesidade. Uma doença de baixa morbidade é responsável por até 30% do movimento cirúrgico de um ambulatório de ginecologia; por isso, a indicação precisa do tratamento é fundamental. O tratamento cirúrgico deve ser oferecido para incontinência moderada a severa ou na falha do tratamento clínico. Vários estudos têm mostrado que a IU está associada com a disfunção sexual, relatados por até dois terços das mulheres, no mundo, com sintomas como dispareunia, ressecamento vaginal e dificuldade para atingir o orgasmo, entre outros. Objetivo: O objetivo deste estudo foi comparar a função sexual de mulheres com incontinência urinária, antes e depois do tratamento cirúrgico. Método: Este estudo foi realizado no Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre e na Irmandade Santa Casa de Misericórdia de Porto Alegre entre agosto de 2009 e novembro de 2011. Tratase de um ensaio clinico controlado não randomizado que avaliou a função sexual de mulheres com incontinência urinária utilizando o instrumento Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) e submetidas a tratamento cirúrgico (Burch ou Sling). A amostra total se constituiu de 38 mulheres que preencheram o questionário FSFI no pré-operatório e seis meses após Intervenção: Cirurgia de Burch ou Sling Instrumentos: Questionário FSFI, variáveis clínicas e demográficas. Resultados: Trinta e oito mulheres foram incluídas no estudo e assinaram o Termo de Consentimento Livre e Esclarecido. A média de idade das mulheres foi 48 anos, todas sexualmente ativas. Oito mulheres fizeram o procedimento cirúrgico tipo Burch e trinta mulheres tipo Sling. No grupo Sling as mulheres eram mais velhas do que as do grupo Burch tinham maior tempo de vida em comum com seus parceiros (24,3 + 11,9) e um IMC de sobrepeso/obesidade (28,4 + 3,3). Não houve diferença estatisticamente significativa no préoperatório nos domínios do FSFI, porém no pós-operatório o escore geral indicou uma melhora da função sexual. Conclusões: Os domínios desejo e excitação melhoraram significativamente após a cirurgia para toda a amostra estudada. Aquelas que apresentaram cistocele tiveram uma melhora da função sexual no domínio dor e desconforto.
Aims: The Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) is a scale to assess sexual dysfunction in women. This study compared sexual function of women with urinary incontinence before and after surgical treatment. Methods: This nonrandomized clinical controlled trial was conducted in the Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre and in Irmandade Santa Casa de Misericórdia de Porto Alegre from August 2009 to November 2011, to evaluate the sexual function of women with urinary incontinence that underwent surgical treatment (Burch or sling procedure). The sample comprised 38 women that answered the FSFI questionnaire before operation and six months after the intervention. Results: Thirty-eight women were included in the study and signed an informed consent term. Mean age was 48.3 years; all were sexually active, had studied for at least eight years (65.8%), had steady partners whose mean age was 54 years and with whom they had lived for a mean 22.5 years. The desire and arousal domains improved significantly after surgery for all the women included in the study. Conclusions: The patients that had cystocele had an improvement in sexual function in the discomfort and pain domain.

Abstract:

Introdução: Embora a contracepção seja bastante prevalente no Brasil (77%), apenas dois métodos predominam: o contraceptivo hormonal oral e a esterilização cirúrgica (LT). No entanto a LT não é inócua e pode trazer diversas conseqüências para a vida dessas mulheres que se submetem a ela. Dentre estas pode estar a deterioração da função sexual o que seria contraditório visto que a LT objetiva uma vida sexual melhor, menos atemorizada pelo medo da gravidez. O presente estudo teve como objetivo avaliar a função sexual de mulheres submetidas à LT. Métodos: Estudo transversal de 235 casos, representativos de 1826, com dados obtidos através de inquérito da função sexual entre as mulheres laqueadas pelo SUS em Ribeirão Preto(SP) entre 2000 e 2004, utilizando-se o Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) adaptado para o contexto brasileiro. Resultados: As entrevistadas tinham em média 35,9 anos e foram esterilizadas em média aos 33,3 anos; 89,8% estavam em união marital, 57,9% declararam-se brancas e 66,8%, católicas, tinham em média 6,1 anos de estudo e 76,6% pertenciam às classes C e D; 93,4% referiram ter um bom relacionamento conjugal e 59,5% declararam que o relacionamento não mudou após o procedimento. A média de filhos vivos foi 3,2, resultaram aborto 8,8% das gestações, 71,2% resultaram partos vaginais e 28,8%, cesáreas; 52,3% usaram pílula 6 meses antes da cirurgia; 98,7% responderam estar satisfeita com a cirurgia e 6,8% referiram dor pélvica. Em geral, 32,5% das mulheres apresentaram escores de índice com risco para disfunção sexual medido pelo FSFI. Foi observada associação entre a variável disfunção sexual e categoria de escolaridade, renda per capita, dor pélvica, número de gravidezes, número de partos vaginais e de cesáreas. Observou-se correlação negativa entre o escore de função sexual e o número de filhos vivos e correlação positiva entre o escore e renda familiar, renda per capita e os valores de classificação econômica. Conclusão: A partir dos dados obtidos, pôde-se observar que dentre as mulheres laqueadas do estudo a presença de disfunção sexual estava associada à dor pélvica e maior número de cesarianas, assim como a situações ligadas à vulnerabilidade social (baixa renda e escolaridade e maior número de filhos).
Introduction: Although contraception is high prevalent in Brazil (77%), only two methods prevail: the hormonal pills and the surgical sterilization. However female sterilization is not innocuous and it can bring several consequences for those women\'s life. Among these consequences it can be to deterioration of the sexual function what is contradictory sees that the use of contraceptional methods aims at a better sexual life, less frightened by the fear of pregnancy. The present study had as objective evaluates the women\'s sexual function submitted to LT. Methods: prevalence study of 235 cases, representative of 1826, with data obtained through inquiry of the sexual function among the women sterilized by the public health system in Ribeirão Preto(SP) between 2000 and 2004. There has been used the Sexual Female Function Index (FSFI) adapted for the Brazilian context. Results: The interviewees were 35,9 years old on average and they were sterilized on average to the 33,3 years; 89,8% were in marital union, 57,9% pronounced white and 66,8%, catholic, they had on average of 6,1 years of study and 76,6% belonged to the classes C and D; 93,4% referred to have a good matrimonial relationship and 59,5% declared that the relationship didn\'t change after the procedure. The alive children\'s average was 3,2, 8,8% of the gestations resulted abortion, 71,2% resulted vaginal childbirths and 28,8%, cesarean; 52,3% used pill 6 months before the surgery; 98,7% answered to be satisfied with the surgery and 6,8% referred pelvic pain. In general, 32,5% of the women presented index scores with risk for sexual dysfunction measured by FSFI. Association was observed between the variable sexual dysfunction and education category, per capita income, pelvic pain, number of pregnancies, number of vaginal childbirths and of Cesarean. Negative correlation was observed between the score of sexual function and the number of alive children and positive correlation among the score and surrender family, per capita income and the values of economical classification. Conclusion: Starting from the obtained data, it could be observed that among the sterilized women the presence of sexual dysfunction was associated to the pelvic pain and larger number of cesarean operations, as well as linked situations to the social vulnerability (low income and education and larger number of children).

Abstract:

INTRODUÇÃO: O câncer de mama é a neoplasia maligna que mais atinge o sexo feminino, sendo responsável por cerca de 20% dos óbitos por câncer entre as mulheres. Os tratamentos utilizados promovem, de modo geral, alterações na auto-imagem, na imagem corporal, no auto-conceito e na função sexual feminina. Assim, objetiva-se avaliar a presença ou não de disfunções sexuais em mulheres com câncer de mama tratadas cirurgicamente. MÉTODOS: foram avaliadas pelo período de um ano, 52 mulheres entre 50 e 60 anos de idade, divididas em dois grupos: controle, composto por 37 mulheres com tumores benignos de mama e 15 submetidas à mastectomia radical, utilizando o Watts Sexual Function Questionnaire (WSFQ), que avalia os quatro componentes da experiência sexual, incluindo as percepções sobre desejo sexual, interesse, orgasmo e satisfação, específico para avaliar a sexualidade em sujeitos com patologias clínicas, previamente aplicado na população brasileira. A este questionário foram acrescidas questões qualitativas visando a avaliação e observação das reações das pacientes frente ao diagnóstico cirúrgico e as possíveis alterações advindas da mastectomia radical na auto-estima, no humor, na capacidade de planejar o futuro e na manutenção do relacionamento afetivo-sexual. Testes estatísticos para medidas repetidas, análise de correlação entre variáveis e análise exploratória de dados multidimencionais estão entre as técnicas estatísticas utilizadas para avaliar o conjunto de dados. RESULTADOS: As principais variações detectadas ao longo do tempo, foram o desejo sexual, no grupo controle e na excitação no grupo cirúrgico. Avaliando-se o impacto do tempo observou-se uma piora na fase do desejo das pacientes pertencentes ao grupo controle comparado ao grupo de mastectomia radical. Dentre as pacientes submetidas à mastectomia, 37,5% das que realizaram reconstrução mamária tem melhor auto-imagem e exercem sua sexualidade adequadamente. A realização do processo de elaboração do luto foi observada durante as diversas etapas do tratamento do câncer de mama. Observou-se amplitude de variações nos sentimentos / atitudes que a doença causa em cada paciente, não sendo possível uma padronização do comportamento e complementando de forma decisiva na avaliação objetiva realizada através da escoragem WSFQ. CONCLUSÃO: Pacientes submetidas à mastectomia radical apresentaram indícios de transtorno de excitação, quando comparadas à mulheres com tumores benignos de mama nas quais observa-se falta de desejo sexual.
INTRODUCTION: breast cancer is the malign neoplasia what most gets female sex, being responsible for about 20% from cancer\'s death among women. The treatments used to promote alterations on self-image, on body image body, into the self-concept and on the female sexual function. So, we aim to access the presence or not sexual dysfunctions in women with breast cancer submitted to surgery treatment. METHODS: were evaluated by a period of one year, 52 women among 50 and 60 years old, divided in two groups: control, compounded by 37 women with benign breast tumors and 15 submitted to radical mastectomy, using the Watts Sexual Function Questionnaire (WSFQ), that assesses the four components from sexual experience, including the perceptions of sexual desire, interest, orgasm and satisfaction, specific to evaluate sexuality in subjects with clinics pathologies previously applied on Brazilian population. For this questionnaire have been added qualitative questions aimed the appraisal and observation from patients reactions to surgical diagnosis and the possible occurring alterations of radical mastectomy in self-steam, in humor, in the capacity of planning future and at the maintenance of the affective-sexual relationships. Statistic tests about repetitive measures, analysis between correlation variables and analysis of multidimencional exploratory data are among the statistics techniques used to evaluate the data set. RESULTS: the main variations detected in a long of the time, was the sexual desire in control group and in excitation in surgical group. Evaluating the impact of the time observed, considering comparatively both groups, there was a worsening in phase of desire in control group when compared to radical mastectomy group. Among the patients submitted to the mastectomy, 37.5% of that carried out mammary reconstruction has better self -image and exercise its sexuality adequately. The achievement of the trial of elaboration of the mourning process was observed during the diverse phases of the breast cancer treatment. It was seen amplitude of variations in feelings / attitudes that illness causes in each patient, not being possible a stardandization of the behavior and complementary of decisive form in the objective evaluation carried out through the WSFQ score CONCLUSION: Patients submitted to radical mastectomy presented indications of perturbation of excitement, when compared to women with benign breast tumors when were observed lack of sexual deseire.

Abstract:

Introdução: A infertilidade é uma condição que afeta, universalmente, um percentual expressivo (8-15%) dos casais da população, sendo esta, uma condição associada frequentemente, a um incremento nas taxas de disfunção sexual e desajuste conjugal. Objetivos: Avaliar a função sexual de mulheres com infertilidade conjugal e avaliar o risco para ansiedade e depressão em mulheres com infertilidade conjugal. Métodos: Estudo controlado com 280 mulheres em idade reprodutiva, sendo 140 atendidas no Setor de Reprodução Humana do Departamento de Ginecologia e Obstetrícia da Faculdade de Medicina de Ribeirão Preto, Universidade de São Paulo (FMRP-USP) e 140 controles recrutadas na população geral de Ribeirão Preto - SP. A função sexual foi avaliada pelo Índice de Função Sexual Feminina (IFSF), e o risco para ansiedade e depressão foi aferido pela Escala de Ansiedade e Depressão (HAD-A, HAD-D). Resultados: Participaram do estudo 280 mulheres, sendo 140 do Grupo Infértil (GI) e 140 do Grupo Controle (GC). Do GI, 104(74,29%) apresentavam infertilidade primária, e 36(25,71%) infertilidade secundária, por fator feminino em 64(45,71%), fator masculino em 38(27,73%) e, em ambos 35(25,54%) dos casos. Do GI, 64(45,71%) foram submetidas a FIV/ICSI. Houve diferença significativa entre os grupos em relação a mediana de idade (GI 36 [32-38]; GC 34 [31-37]), (p=0,02). Não houve diferença entre os grupos em relação ao número de mulheres com menos de 40 anos e com idade maior ou igual a 40 anos (p=0,40). E também não houve diferença significativa entre os dois grupos em relação a idade dos parceiros, número de relações sexuais/semana, IMC, peso e estado civil. Houve diferença entre os grupos em relação ao tempo de relacionamento (GI, 11,80 ± 4,84 anos (1,50-24) vs. GC, 10,40 ± 5,73 (0,50-26), p=0,03). Estratificando por tempo de relacionamento no GI 10(7,14%) tinham < 5 anos de relacionamento contra 27(19,29%) no GC e, no GI 130(92,86%) tinham > 5 anos de relacionamento contra 113(80,71%) do GC, (p<0,01). A análise do IFSF evidenciou risco para disfunção sexual em 47(33,57%) do GI, e em 49(35%) do GC (p=0,90) e não houve diferença significativa entre os domínios do IFSF, a não ser pela diferença encontrada no domínio excitação, que foi maior no GC (p=0,04). Não houve diferença entre os grupos em relação ao risco para ansiedade e depressão. Os fatores de risco para disfunção sexual (DS), ansiedade e depressão, nos dois grupos, ajustado para as variáveis: faixa etária, IMC, estado civil, tempo de relacionamento, escolaridade, gestação, anticoncepção, partos, psicoterapia, cigarro, álcool, faixa etária do parceiro, risco para DS, ansiedade e risco para depressão evidenciou que mulheres que apresentam risco para ansiedade tem maior risco para DS. Mulheres com risco para depressão evidenciaram risco aumentado para DS. A DS foi fator de risco para ansiedade e depressão. As mulheres casadas apresentaram menos risco para depressão do que mulheres amasiadas. Conclusão: As mulheres não apresentaram risco para disfunção sexual em relação aos controles. A ansiedade e depressão constituem risco para disfunção sexual nessa amostra.
Introduction: Infertility is a condition that affects, universally, a significant percentage (8- 15%) of couples. Infertility is often linked to an increase in sexual dysfunction rates and marital conflict. Objectives: To assess sexual function of infertile women and to assess the risk for anxiety and depression in infertile women. Methods: This is a controlled study with 280 women in reproductive age, being 140 women attended in Human Reproduction Sector of the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics of the Ribeirão Preto Medical School, University of São Paulo (FMRP-USP), and 140 controls recruited from the general population in Ribeirão Preto - SP. Sexual function was assessed by the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), and the risk for anxiety and depression was measured by the Anxiety and Depression Scale (HAD-A, HAD-D). Results: Twenty eight women participated in this study, being 140 women in infertile group (IG) and 140 controls (CG). In the IG, 104 (74.29%) had primary infertility, and 36 (25.71%) secondary infertility. In the entire sample female factor was evident in 64 (45.71%) and male factor in 38 (27.73%), and both 35 (25.54%) cases. In the IG, 64 (45.71%) underwent FIV / ICSI. There was a significant difference between groups in relation to median age (IG 36 [32-38]; CG 34 [31-37]) (p = 0.02). There was no significant difference between groups in the number of women = 40 years (p = 0.40). There was no significant difference between groups regarding the age of partners, number of sexual intercourse/week, BMI, weight and marital status. There was difference between groups regarding the time of relationship (IG, 11.80 ± 4.84 years (1.50 to 24) vs. CG, 10.40 ± 5.73 (0.50 to 26), p = 0.03). Stratifying for relationship time in IG 10 (7.14%) were < 5 years of relationship vs. 27 (19.29%) in the CG, and IG 130 (92.86%) had > 5 year relationship vs. 113 (80.71%) CG (p <0.01). The risk for sexual dysfunction was observed in 47 (33.57%) of the IG, and in 49 (35%) of the control group (p = 0.90). There was no significant difference between the majority scores of FSFI, but there was significant difference between groups regarding arousal domain, which was higher in CG (p = 0.04). There was no difference between groups regarding the risk for anxiety and depression. Risk factors for sexual dysfunction (SD), anxiety and depression in both groups, adjusted for the variables: age, BMI, marital status, length of relationship, education, pregnancy, contraception, birth, psychotherapy, cigarettes, alcohol, partner\'s age, risk for SD, anxiety and risk for depression showed that women who are at risk for anxiety have a higher risk for SD. Women at risk for depression, showed increased risk for SD. The SD was a risk factor for anxiety and depression. Married women showed less risk for depression than women who only live together with a partner. Conclusion: Infertile women showed no risk for sexual dysfunction compared to controls. Anxiety and depression are risk for sexual dysfunction in this sample.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is highly prevalent and is currently a worldwide public health problem. It entails physical and psychological consequences and requires adaptation and change of lifestyle. Also, alterations in sexual function of men and women affected by such a disease, as well as decrease in libido are found in both sexes. Objective: to evaluate the performance and sexual satisfaction of women with chronic kidney disease and compare levels of performance and sexual satisfaction in the two main modalities of renal replacement therapy – hemodialysis and renal transplantation. Method: a descriptive cross-sectional study with 49 women enrolled in renal replacement therapy modalities (hemodialysis and renal transplantation) at Hospital de Base in the city of São José do Rio Preto - SP. For data collection, it was used data sheet containing socio-demographic information, scale for evaluation of sexual activity in women (SQ-F) and semi-structured interview. Results: 65,3% of collaborators have reported intense changes in body image after CKD, as well as decrease in libido and sexual performance. About 89,8% of collaborators present impairement in the SQ-F question regarding sexual desire. In the comparison between treatments, difference was significant in all SQ-F, except for question related to pain. When the total score of the instrument was evaluated, the group undergoing hemodialysis achieved a mean score of 39,0 (poor to unfavorable), and the kidney transplant group 70,0 (regular to good). Transplant collaborators has nine times greater chance (odds ratio – 9,2) of achieving better score in the instrument. Conclusion: the performance and sexual satisfaction of women with chronic kidney disease are impaired, which may be associated with different factors. In the comparison between groups, this study demonstrated significantly better sexual functioning in the transplant group.
A doença renal crônica apresenta elevada prevalência e constitui atualmente, um problema de saúde pública mundial. Acarreta consequências físicas, psicológicas e exige adaptação e mudança de estilo de vida. São também encontradas alterações na função sexual de homens e mulheres acometidos pela Doença Renal Crônica, assim como a diminuição da libido em ambos os sexos. Objetivo: avaliar o desempenho e a satisfação sexual de mulheres portadoras de Doença Renal Crônica e comparar os níveis desempenho e satisfação sexual nas duas principais modalidades de terapia renal substitutiva – hemodiálise e transplante renal. Método: estudo descritivo transversal, tendo como participantes 49 mulheres inseridas em modalidades de terapia renal substitutiva: Hemodiálise e Transplante Renal no Hospital de Base na cidade de São José do Rio Preto - SP. Foi utilizada para coleta de dados, ficha contendo informações sócio demográficas, escala para avaliação da atividade sexual na mulher (QS-F) e entrevista semiestruturada. Resultados: 65,3% das colaboradoras identificaram mudanças intensas na imagem corporal após a DRC. Assim como, diminuição na libido e no desempenho sexual. Cerca de 89,8% das colaboradoras apresentam prejuízo na questão do QS-F referente ao desejo sexual. Na comparação entre os tratamentos, a diferença foi significativa em todas as questões do QS-F, exceto na questão relacionada à dor. Quando avaliado pelo escore total do instrumento o grupo em tratamento hemodialítico alcançou a pontuação média de 39,0 (ruim a desfavorável), já o grupo de transplante renal 70,0 (de regular a bom). As colaboradoras em transplante apresentam probabilidade nove vezes maior (odds ratio – 9,2) de alcançarem melhor escore no instrumento. Conclusão: houve prejuízo clinicamente significativo no desempenho e satisfação sexual das mulheres portadoras de doença renal crônica, alterações que podem estar associadas a diferentes fatores. Na comparação de grupos, este estudo demonstrou um funcionamento sexual significativamente melhor no grupo transplante.

Introduction: Infertility, besides being a medical condition that deserves medical attention and treatment, is a disturbing development, with implications on various aspects of life of infertile couples and individuals (personal, relational, social and sexual). The impact of infertility on women's sexuality is not entirely clear. Studies that have investigated the topic reported contradictory results and methodological limitation. Objectives: • Review important aspects of female sexual function, including, in Brazil the prevalence, diagnosis and treatment. • Establish the risk of female sexual dysfunction in infertile couples. • Determine the prevalence of sexual dysfunction among infertile and fertile women and among women undergoing the techniques of low and high complexity. • Compare the dysfunctions in fertile and infertile women and in women subjected to low and high technical complexity. Methods: A literature review article, constructed from research on PubMed/Medline and SciELO databases between 1985 and 2012 was drafted. Then an original article where a study of the case-control was developed with 278 infertile participants met at the Laboratory of Huma n Reproduction, Hospital das Clínicas and fertile patients recruited at the Clinic of Gynecology in the same hospital, from March 2012 to September 2013. The case group consisted of 92 women with sexual dysfunction and a control group of 186 women without sexual dysfunction. The questionnaire Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) Portuguese version, which assesses the domains desire, arousal, lubrication, orgasm, satisfaction and pain, was used. Data were collected through interviews after signing the WIC. Two controls per case were randomly selected. The odds ratio (OR) was calculated for chance of female sexual dysfunction in infertile couples (p ≤ 0.05). Results: In the literature, it is observed that female sexual dysfunction have a multifactorial etiology, prevalence ranged from 35.9 % to 49.0 % and is rarely studied in the Brazilian population. Infertile and fertile women have the same chance for sexual dysfunction (OR = 1.45, 95% CI 0.86 to 2.44, p = 0.20). The prevalence of sexual dysfunction in infertile women was 36.31 %, and the fertile women was 28.18 %. In women undergoing low technical complexity prevalence was 38.88 %, 34.37 % and high complexity. Desire and arousal were significantly lower in infertile women. No significant differences were observed in relation to sexual dysfunction in women subjected to the techniques of low and high complexity. Conclusions: The risk of infertile women experiencing sexual dysfunction is the same fertile women. There was no statistical difference regarding the prevalence in infertile women compared to fertile, and women undergoing fertilization of low complexity when compared to high complexity. The desire and arousal domains were the most affected in infertile women. No differences were observed in the areas in relation to the techniques of low and high complexity.
Introdução: A infertilidade, além de ser uma condição clínica que merece atenção médica e tratamento, é um acontecimento perturbador, com implicações em diversas dimensões da vida dos casais e indivíduos inférteis (pessoal, relacional, social e sexual). O impacto da infertilidade na sexualidade da mulher não está inteiramente claro. Os estudos que investigaram o tema apresentam resultados contraditórios e limitações metodológicas. Objetivos: • Revisar aspectos importantes sobre a função sexual feminina, incluindo, prevalência no Brasil, diagnóstico e tratamento. • Estabelecer o risco de disfunções sexuais femininas em casais inférteis. • Determinar a prevalência de disfunção sexual entre mulheres inférteis e férteis e entre mulheres submetidas às técnicas de baixa e alta complexidade. • Comparar as disfunções em mulheres férteis e inférteis e em mulheres submetidas às técnicas baixa e alta complexidade. Métodos: Foi redigido um artigo de revisão da literatura, construído a partir de pesquisa nas bases de dados PubMed/Medline e SciELO entre 1985 e 2012. Em seguida um artigo original onde um estudo do tipo caso-controle foi desenvolvido com 278 participantes inférteis atendidas no Laboratório de Reprodução Humana do Hospital das Clínicas e pacientes férteis recrutadas no Ambulatório de Ginecologia do mesmo hospital, no período de março de 2012 a setembro de 2013. O grupo caso foi composto por 92 mulheres com disfunção sexual e o grupo controle por 186 mulheres sem disfunção sexual. Foi utilizado o questionário Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) versão em português, que avalia os domínios desejo, excitação, lubrificação, orgasmo, satisfação e dor. Os dados foram colhidos por entrevista após assinatura do TCLE. Dois controles por caso foram selecionados aleatoriamente. Foi calculado o odds ratio (OR) para chance de disfunção sexual feminina em casais inférteis (p ≤0,05). Resultados: Na revisão da literatura, observa-se que as disfunções sexuais femininas apresentam etiologia multifatorial, a prevalência pode variar de 35,9% a 49,0% e é pouco estudada na população brasileira. Mulheres inférteis e férteis apresentam a mesma chance para disfunção sexual (OR= 1,45; IC 95% 0,86–2,44; p= 0,20). A prevalência de disfunção sexual em mulheres inférteis foi de 36,31%, e nas mulheres férteis foi de 28,18%. Em mulheres submetidas à técnica de baixa complexidade a prevalência foi de 38,88%, e alta complexidade 34,37%. Desejo e excitação foram significativamente inferiores em mulheres inférteis. Não foram observadas diferenças significativas em relação às disfunções sexuais em mulheres submetidas às técnicas de baixa e alta complexidade. Conclusões: O risco de mulheres inférteis apresentarem disfunção sexual é o mesmo de mulheres férteis. Não houve diferença estatística em relação à prevalência em mulheres inférteis quando comparadas às férteis, e em mulheres submetidas à fertilização de baixa complexidade quando comparadas a alta complexidade. Os domínios desejo e excitação foram os mais comprometidos em mulheres inférteis. Não foram observadas diferenças nos domínios em relação às técnicas de baixa e alta complexidade.

Introduction: Female sexual dysfunction (FSD) is a complex condition that can be influenced by several factors including psychological, hormonal, vascular and emotional processes, which affects both physical and mental health and women quality of life. FSD is associated with obesity, a low grade inflammatory state that promotes important physiological changes and impairs sexual function. Obesity and FSD are influenced by the practice of physical exercise however, until the present moment, no study has tested the influence of Mat Pilates on the sexual function and quality of life of overweight women. Objectives: To evaluate the influence of a protocol of exercises based on the Mat Pilates method in the symptoms of sexual dysfunction and the quality of life of overweight women as well as their influence on risk factors for cardiovascular diseases. Methods: Twenty-two overweight women with symptoms of sexual dysfunction were divided into two groups: trained group - TG (n = 12), which underwent 12 weeks of training with exercises based on the Mat Pilates method and the control group - CG (n = 10), which did not perform any physical exercise in the intervention period. All participants were evaluated before and after the 12 weeks of intervention by the FSFI and IWQOL-Lite questionnaires. Lipid profile, fasting glycemia and testosterone level were also analyzed. Results: The TG showed improvement in the excitement, orgasm and pain domains, as well as in the FSFI overall score when compared to the CG. Parameters related to the quality of life, including the physical function, sexual life and overall score domains, showed improvement in the TG. The Pilates training did not change the variables of lipid profile and waist circumference, but decreased the body weight of the TG. There was a negative correlation between the physical function domain of the IWQOL - Lite questionnaire and the desire and excitation variables of the FSFI questionnaire. Conclusion: Training with exercises based on the Mat Pilates method during 12-weeks is effective in improving sexual function and quality of life of overweight women regardless of changes in blood parameters such as lipid profile, blood glucose and testosterone level.
Introdução: A disfunção sexual feminina (DSF) é um fenômeno complexo que pode ser influenciado por diversos fatores entre eles psicológicos, hormonais, vasculares e emocionais interferindo tanto na saúde física e mental quanto na qualidade de vida das mulheres. A DSF está associada à obesidade, um estado inflamatório de baixo grau que promove alterações fisiológicas importantes, impedindo uma adequada função sexual. As duas condições são influenciadas pela prática de exercício físico e, não há até o momento, estudos sobre a influência dos exercícios baseados no método Pilates de solo na função sexual e qualidade de vida de mulheres com excesso de peso. Objetivos: Avaliar a influência de um protocolo de exercícios baseados no método Pilates de solo nos sintomas de disfunção sexual e na qualidade de vida de mulheres com excesso de peso bem como sua influência em fatores de risco para doenças cardiovasculares como medida de cintura e perfil lipídico. Métodos: Foram selecionadas 22 mulheres com sintomas de disfunção sexual e excesso de peso e divididas em dois grupos: grupo treinado - GT (n=12) que realizou 12 semanas de treinamento com exercícios baseados no método Pilates de solo e grupo controle – GC (n=10) que não realizou nenhum exercício físico no período de intervenção. Todas as participantes foram avaliadas antes e após as 12 semanas de intervenção pelos questionários FSFI e IWQOL- Lite, e além disso, foram realizadas as análises de perfil lipídico, glicemia de jejum e nível de testosterona. Resultados: O GT apresentou melhora nos domínios de excitação, orgasmo, dor e no escore geral total do FSFI em comparação ao GC. Quanto à qualidade de vida, o GT apresentou melhora nos domínios de função física, vida sexual e no escore total. O treinamento não alterou as variáveis de perfil lipídico e medida de cinturas, mas diminuiu o peso no GT. Houve correlação negativa entre o domínio da função física do questionário IWQOL – Lite e as variáveis de desejo e excitação do questionário FSFI. Conclusão: O treinamento com 12 semanas de exercícios baseados no método Pilates de solo é eficaz na melhora da função sexual e da qualidade de vida de mulheres com excesso de peso independente de alterações nos parâmetros sanguíneos como perfil lipídico, glicemia e nível de testosterona.

Abstract:

INTRODUÇÃO: as disfunções sexuais femininas (DSF) são altamente prevalentes na população, e as opções terapêuticas disponíveis ainda constituem desafio para a prática do ginecologista. Este estudo tem como objetivo avaliar os efeitos da terapia cognitivo-comportamental (TCC) em grupo de mulheres com disfunção sexual. MÉTODO: foram incluídas 106 mulheres com diagnóstico de disfunção sexual atendidas no Setor de Sexualidade da Divisão de Clínica Ginecológica do Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo, as quais foram divididas em dois grupos: o primeiro (n=53) submetido a TCC em grupo, com duração de oito encontros; o segundo (n=53) a tratamento expectante. A função sexual foi avaliada pelo quociente sexual feminino (QSF) na entrevista inicial, e após seis meses em ambos os grupos. O poder da amostra foi de 95%. Os resultados foram comparados entre os grupos com o uso de testes de Mann-Whitney. RESULTADOS: ambos os grupos apresentaram características semelhantes quanto à resposta sexual, autoimagem e relacionamento com parceiro na entrevista inicial. O grupo submetido à terapia apresentou melhora significativa na função sexual quando comparado com o grupo controle, tanto pelo resultado global do QSF, com variação média de 18,08 pontos (IC95% 12,87 23,28) para o primeiro contra -0,83 pontos (IC95% -3,43 1,77) do segundo (p<0,001), assim como para os domínios discriminados pelo questionário: Desejo e Interesse (p=0,003), Preliminares (p=0,003), Excitação e Sintonia (p<0,001), Conforto (p<0,001) e Orgasmo e Satisfação (p<0,001). CONCLUSÃO: a TCC em grupo mostrou ser ferramenta eficaz para o tratamento das disfunções sexuais femininas
Introduction: Female Sexual Dysfunction (FSD) have high prevalence, and therapeutic options available are a challenge in gynaecological practice. Objective: to evaluate the effects of group cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) for women with sexual dysfunction. Methods: A total of 106 women diagnosed with sexual dysfunctions was equally divided into subjects (n=53), who underwent group CBT for 8 weekly sessions, and controls (n=53), who were given expectant treatment. Assessment of sexual function was carried out at an interview at baseline and at the endpoint after six months using Abdos female sexual quotient questionnaire (FSQ). Results: At baseline both groups had similar characteristics as to sexual response, self-image and relationship with a partner. The women who went into therapy showed significant improvement in sexual function when compared with those in the control group: The FSQ had an average growth of 18.08 points (95%CI: 12.87 to 23.28) in the therapy group against an average decrease of 0.83 points (95%CI: 3.43 to 1.77) among the controls (p<0.001). The five domains discriminated by the questionnaire also showed significant improvement in the therapy group: desire and interest (p=0.003), foreplay (p=0.003), excitation and tuning (p<0.001), comfort (p<0.001), and orgasm and satisfaction (p<0.001). Conclusion: group CBT was shown to be an effective tool for the treatment of female sexual dysfunctions

The vaginismus is characterized by ICD-10 (1993) as a spasm of muscles surrounding the vagina, causing occlusion of the vaginal opening, making possible the penetration of the penis or painful. Since 1990, the World Health Organization says the sex as one of the pillars for ensuring the quality of life. This study sought to understand how women, with vaginismus diagnoses and living in the city of São Paulo experience quality of life, from Psychology phenomenological approach. Four women participated in this research, aging between 34 and 43 years. The instruments used were: WHOQOL-bref, Instrument of Self-Perceived Quality of Life (Serra and Bassani) and open interview. Data were analyzed from the features of human existence - being in the world, temporalizing, and choose spatialization (Forghieri, 2004). The data indicated that sexual disorders affect any of the participants. The vaginismus seems to underline the world of these women, in their relationships with the environment, with others or with themselves. Most of the participants can live with keeping their experiences, expanding their temporalizing. They reported having lived alternatives ways of existence, with a prevalence of concerned and focused; information about sexual disorders and treatment options can provide a better understanding of the vaginismus, in order to facilitate the achievement of choices. This study indicates that: 1) the vaginismus affects all areas of life of these participants, with more intensity: health, sexual and emotional ones. 2) Health, sexual, family and social affairs, are the areas most directly affected on the overall assessment of quality of life. 3) getting information, understanding of the disorder and being able to attend to properly treatment, can promote the welfare of participants. 4) The resolution of the complaint of vaginismus influences the improvement and new meanings for quality of life
O vaginismo é caracterizado pela CID-10 (1993) como um espasmo dos músculos que circundam a vagina, causando oclusão da abertura vaginal, tornando a penetração do pênis impossível ou dolorosa. Desde 1990, a Organização Mundial de Saúde ressalta o sexo como um dos pilares para garantia de qualidade de vida. O presente estudo buscou compreender, a partir de um olhar fenomenológico, como mulheres moradoras no Estado de São Paulo e diagnosticadas com vaginismo, vivenciam a qualidade de vida em seu dia-a-dia. Participaram quatro mulheres, entre 34 e 43 anos. Os instrumentos utilizados foram: Questionário de Qualidade de Vida (WHOQOL-bref), Instrumento de Auto-Percepção de Qualidade de Vida (Serra e Bassani) e entrevista aberta. Os dados foram analisados a partir das características do existir humano ser-no-mundo, temporalizar, espacializar e escolher (Forghieri, 2004). Os dados obtidos ressaltam que a disfunção sexual afeta o existir das participantes. O vaginismo parece permear o ser-no-mundo dessas mulheres, seja nas relações com o ambiente, com outras pessoas ou consigo mesmas. A maioria das participantes consegue vivenciar com sintonia suas experiências, expandindo o temporalizar. Alternam as maneiras de existir, com prevalência das preocupada e sintonizada; Informações sobre a disfunção sexual e opções de tratamento proporcionam uma melhor compreensão do vaginismo, facilitando a realização de escolhas. Este estudo indica que: 1) O vaginismo afetou todos os âmbitos da vida das participantes, com mais intensidade os de saúde, sexual e emocional. 2) Os âmbitos que influenciaram diretamente a avaliação geral de qualidade de vida variaram para cada participante, destacam-se os âmbitos: saúde, sexual, familiar e social. 3) Obter informações, compreender a disfunção e ter a possibilidade de fazer tratamento, favorecem o bem-estar das participantes. 4) A resolução da queixa de vaginismo influencia na melhoria e na avaliação da qualidade de vida

Abstract:

Introdução - A disfunção sexual é uma queixa comum, porém, ainda pouco valorizada no âmbito da saúde pública, acometendo indistintamente homens e mulheres e com potenciais reflexos negativos na sua qualidade de vida e bem-estar. Objetivo - Avaliar a prevalência de disfunções sexuais e seus possíveis fatores associados entre mulheres de meia-idade residentes na Região Norte do Brasil. Métodos - Estudo transversal e prospectivo, envolvendo 1.415 mulheres entre 35 e 65 anos atendidas no Ambulatório de Ginecologia do Hospital das Clínicas do município de Rio Branco - Acre - Brasil. Para avaliar a sintomatologia menopausal e a sua função sexual, foram aplicados a Escala de Classificação da Menopausa e o Índice da Função Sexual Feminina. Na análise dos dados, usou-se o pacote estatístico Stata 10, aceitando-se um nível de significância de 5 por cento . Na análise de proporções, usou-se o teste não paramétrico do Qui-Quadrado de Pearson. No estudo dos fatores associados às disfunções sexuais, recorreu-se à análise multivariada através de regressão logística múltipla. Resultados - A média etária das mulheres estudadas foi de 47,7 (+8,5) anos. A sua maioria era de baixa escolaridade (6,4+4,6) anos completos de estudo. A menarca, em média, foi aos 13,4 (+1,6) anos. A maioria referiu gestações anteriores (4,6+2,8). Cerca de 35,9 por cento eram pós-menopáusicas, tendo a menopausa ocorrido ao redor dos 48,3 (+4,9) anos. A autopercepção de saúde foi considerada pelas entrevistadas ruim/muito ruim em 54,6 por cento . A irritabilidade foi a queixa mais frequente (78,3 por cento ), seguida pelos problemas osteoarticulares (74,8 por cento ) e ansiedade (72,7 por cento ). A prevalência de disfunção sexual foi de 62,3 por cento . Ajustados os possíveis fatores de confusão, mostraram-se associados a disfunção sexual: baixa escolaridade (OR:1,70; [IC 95 por cento :1,31-2,19]; p<0,001); sedentarismo (OR:1,73; [IC 95 por cento :1,23-2,42]; p=0,001); autopercepção de saúde ruim/muito ruim (OR:1,99; [IC 95 por cento :1,55-2,57]; p<0,001); estado de ânimo depressivo (OR:1,16; [IC 95 por cento :1,05-1,27]; p=0,002); problemas sexuais (OR:2,50; [IC 95 por cento :1,96-3,20]; p<0,001); ressecamento vaginal (OR:1,49; [IC 95 por cento :1,33-1,66]; p<0,001) e a fase de pós-menopausa (OR:1,82; [IC 95 por cento :1,39-2,38]; p<0,001). Conclusão - Entre a população de mulheres da Região Norte Brasileira estudada, a prevalência de disfunção sexual encontrada foi elevada e a análise dos possíveis fatores associados a sua ocorrência revelaram a influência das condições socioeconômicas, estilo de vida, além da sintomatologia e do estado menopausal, desvelando uma multidimensionalidade de aspectos biológicos e não biológicos envolvidos na sua gênese.
Introduction - Sexual dysfunction is a common complaint, under-recognized by public health services, that affects both men and women equally and has potentially negative impacts on the quality of life and general well-being of sufferers. Objective - To assess the prevalence of sexual dysfunctions, and their possible associated factors, among middle-aged women from the Northern region of Brazil. Methods - A cross-sectional, prospective study was carried out involving 1,415 women aged 35-65 years attended at the Gynecology Outpatient unit of the Clinicas Hospital of Rio Branco city - Acre state - Brazil. Menopausal symptomatology and female sexual function were assessed by applying the Menopause Rating Scale and Female Sexual Index. The Stata 10 statistics package was used for all data analysis, adopting a level of statistical significance of 5 per cent . Pearsons Chi-squared nonparametric association test was used for proportions analysis. Multivariate analysis using multiple logistic regression was employed to study the factors associated with sexual dysfunctions. Results - Mean age of the women studied was 47.7 (+8.5) years. The majority had a low educational level averaging (6.4+4.6) full years of schooling. Mean age at menarche was 13.4 (+1.6) years. The majority reported previous gestations (4.6+2.8). Approximately 35.9 per cent were post-menopausal with menopause occurring at around 48.3 (+4.9) years. Self-perceived health among respondents was rated as poor/very poor by 54.6 per cent . Irritability was the most frequent complaint (78.3 per cent ), followed by osteoarticular problems (74.8 per cent ), and anxiety (72.7 per cent ). The prevalence of sexual dysfunction was 62.3 per cent . After adjusting for potential confounding factors, the following were found to be associated with sexual dysfunction: low educational level (OR:1.70; [95 per cent CI:1.31-2.19]; p<0.001); sedentarism (OR:1.73; [95 per cent CI:1.23-2.42]; p=0.001); poor/very poor self-perceived health (OR:1.99; [95 per cent CI:1.55-2.57]; p<0,001); depressive mood (OR:1.16; [95 per cent CI:1.05-1.27]; p=0.002); sexual problems (OR:2.50; [95 per cent CI:1.96-3.20]; p<0.001); vaginal dryness (OR:1.49; [95 per cent CI:1.33-1.66]; p<0.001) and the post-menopausal stage (OR:1.82; [95 per cent CI:1.39-2.38]; p<0.001). Conclusion - A high prevalence of sexual dysfunction was found among women from Brazils Northern region, where socioeconomic conditions, lifestyle, as well as menopausal symptoms and status, influenced its occurrence, revealing a multidimensionality of biological and non-biological aspects involved in its genesis.

The present study aimed at modifying difficult (awkward) actions related to sexual behavior, such as comments related to dissatisfaction with the partner and the use of artificial lubricants, through general and specific behavioral interventions. With respect to general behavioral interventions we applied several techniques, like instruct through information, provide feedback, prioritize tasks, and provide models and instructions as positive reinforcement, while with specific behaviors we included teaching discriminative training of bodily responses before and during sexual intercourse. In addition, as a case study, it aimed to evaluate the antecedents and consequences of sexual dysfunction reported by a participant female of 26 years with a stable partner. The functional evaluation included procedures through an interview and a questionnaire. Further, we also used behavioral logging activity (self-monitoring). To demonstrate that interventions (independent variable) had effect on the dependent variable we used the design of alternating-type treatments (ABC) succeed by follow-up. The results showed decrease in behaviors-problem and increase of skilled actions related to sexual behavior, such as reports of satisfaction with the partner and vaginal lubrication response.
O presente estudo objetivou a modificação de ações inábeis relacionadas ao comportamento sexual, bem como dos relatos de insatisfação com o parceiro e do uso de lubrificantes artificiais, por meio de intervenções comportamentais gerais (instruir por meio de informações, fornecer feedbacks, hierarquizar tarefas, fornecer modelos e instruções e instruir o uso do reforçamento positivo) e específicas (ensinar o treino discriminativo das respostas corporais antes do coito e ensinar o treino discriminativo das respostas corporais durante o coito). Ainda objetivou avaliar os antecedentes e consequentes da disfunção sexual relatada por uma participante do sexo feminino, de 26 anos e com parceiro fixo. A avaliação funcional incluiu procedimentos indiretos por meio de uma entrevista e de um questionário. Também utilizou-se de uma atividade de registro comportamental (auto-observação). Para demonstração de que as intervenções (variável independente) é que produziram efeito sobre a variável dependente, foi empregado o delineamento de tratamentos alternados do tipo (ABC) seguido por follow-up. Os resultados demonstraram diminuição dos comportamentosproblema e aumento de ações hábeis relacionadas ao comportamento sexual, de relatos de satisfação com o parceiro e da resposta de lubrificação vaginal.

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior
Métodos de investigação com questionários validados são considerados facilitadores internacionais para o avanço das pesquisas. O Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) é um instrumento de avaliação da resposta sexual feminina utilizado universalmente. Sua forma original de resposta é a Likert, caracterizada como categórica, com respostas pré-estabelecidas. Outro tipo de formato de resposta é a Visual Analog Scale (VAS), a qual é contínua, oferece maior liberdade de resposta e permite o uso de estatísticas paramétricas. Analisando as vantagens da VAS, este estudo teve como objetivo geral avaliar o comportamento de risco, a validade e a reprodutibilidade do FSFI em forma de VAS em universitárias. E como objetivos específicos: adaptar, validar e testar a reprodutibilidade do FSFI aplicado no modelo VAS em universitárias; verificar a prevalência e a associação de disfunção sexual (DSF) em universitárias segundo o comportamento de risco e os fatores sociodemográficos, clínicos e ginecológicos. Para tal, a amostra do estudo foi composta por 246 mulheres universitárias. Estas responderam um questionário com dados sociodemográficos, clínicos e ginecológicos, o FSFI em seu formato original (FSFI-Likert) e o FSFI em forma de VAS (FSFI-VAS), adaptado por dois pesquisadores independentes e avaliado por um comitê de seis especialistas. Após 15 dias, as mesmas responderam novamente o FSFI-VAS e o National College Health Risk Behavior Survey. A análise de dados foi realizada com estatística descritiva e testes de correlação entre o FSFI-Likert e o FSFI-VAS (Spearman Rank), assim como entre o FSFI-VAS teste e reteste (Intraclass Correlation Coefficient). Adicionalmente, análises de associação e comparação (Qui-quadrado e U de Mann Whitney) foram realizadas entre a presença de disfunção sexual, gerada pelo escore total do FSFI, os dados sociodemográficos, clínicos, ginecológicos e o comportamento de risco. Como resultados, o teste Spearman Rank mostrou alta correlação entre os escores totais do FSFI-Likert e o FSFI-VAS (0.87). Todos os domínios alcançaram índices maiores que 0.70. O menor valor do Intraclass Correlation Coefficient foi 0.81. A maioria das mulheres eram sexualmente ativas (80,5%), dentre essas houve a prevalência de 23,7% de DSF. Os fatores associados à DSF foram: presença de infecção urinária (p=0,037), a frequência de relação sexual mensal (p=0,005) e uso de método contraceptivo oral (p=0,040). Concluiu-se que o FSFI-VAS é um instrumento válido e reprodutível e que o valor de prevalência intermediária de DSF em universitárias justificam a necessidade de elaboração de medidas de prevenção e promoção de saúde feminina.

Abstract:

Si les connaissances anatomiques supportent l’élaboration des techniqueschirurgicales, peu d’informations étaient disponibles sur l’anatomie et la physiologie del’innervation pelvi-périnéale. La détermination précise de l’origine, du trajet péri-viscéral, desrapports anatomiques avec les organes et les vaisseaux de voisinage et de la terminaison deces nerfs au niveau d’organes dont ils commandent la fonction était jusqu’alors peu accessibleaux techniques anatomiques classiques de dissection macroscopique sur sujet cadavérique.Dans le domaine de la chirurgie pelvienne pour cancer, l’amélioration de la qualité de vie desmalades passe par la préservation de ces structures nerveuses, la dimension fonctionnelle étantdésormais indissociable des impératifs carcinologiques. En effet, l’intégrité de ces nerfs estindispensable aux fonctions de continence sphinctérienne et de sexualité. Par ailleurs, lamajorité des travaux s’intéressant aux séquelles fonctionnelles postopératoires sont réaliséschez l’homme et très peu de travaux concernent exclusivement les femmes dont les troublessexuels sont plus difficiles à identifier. La réduction de ces troubles fonctionnelspostopératoires passe donc par une meilleure compréhension de l’anatomie nerveuse pelvipérinéale,qui peut être éclaircie par de nouvelles techniques d’étude
Anatomical knowledge is required for the development of surgical techniques,but little is known about the anatomy and physiology of innervation in the pelvic/perinealarea. The origin, perivisceral trajectory, anatomical relationships to organs and neighbouringvessels and of the endings of these nerves in the organs they control has not, to date, beeneasy to determine precisely by classical anatomical techniques based on the macroscopicdissection of cadavers. In the domain of pelvic cancer surgery, improvements in the quality oflife of patients are dependent on the preservation of these nervous system structures; themaintenance of function cannot be dissociated from oncological imperatives. Indeed, theintegrity of these nerves is essential for sphincter continence and sexual functions. Moststudies have focused on the functional sequelae of surgery in men. Very few studies havefocused exclusively on women, in whom sexual problems are more difficult to identify. Thereduction of such postsurgical functional problems thus requires a more completeunderstanding of the anatomy of the pelvic/perineal nervous system. This may be possiblethrough the use of new investigative techniques

Abstract:

Introdução: A saúde sexual é uma importante variável e contribui para o bem-estar físico, emocional, mental e social de um indivíduo e para um relacionamento com um parceiro(a) no geral satisfatório. Todos temos o direito de viver a nossa sexualidade de uma forma livre, saudável e recompensadora. As disfunções sexuais são um problema comum nas mulheres e a sua definição tem vindo a evoluir, juntamente com estudos empíricos e novos modelos teóricos mais próximos da realidade feminina. Objetivo: Descrever os modelos teóricos que explicam a resposta sexual feminina; apresentar as definições clínicas das disfunções sexuais na mulher e discutir algumas abordagens clínicas para cada uma. Pretende também chamar a atenção para que estas questões sejam debatidas no consultório, devido ao impacto que podem ter na vida de uma mulher. Métodos: Esta revisão narrativa foi escrita tendo por base uma visão global da literatura pesquisada na base de dados MEDLINE, assim como na leitura de livros das áreas de Psiquiatria e Medicina Sexual. Discussão: Esta secção apresenta-se dividida em três grandes tópicos, que são o foco desta revisão narrativa: modelos da resposta sexual feminina, definições segundo a DSM-5 das disfunções sexuais na mulher e propostas de abordagem clínica. As características das disfunções sexuais, fatores de risco, diagnósticos diferenciais e o impacto na vida do casal é discutido, assim como a importância de uma avaliação holística da mulher com estas queixas. São também discutidas várias técnicas/terapias para a abordagem clínica, sem esquecer que a presença de co-morbilidades sexuais, nomeadamente várias disfunções, são frequentes na mesma mulher. Conclusão: Esta revisão narrativa pode dar um importante contributo na melhoria das competências de comunicação sobre o tema, não só a médicos generalistas/especialistas como também a pessoas sem formação médica que demostrem interesse. Fornece informação objetiva, fácil de ler e salienta a importância do tema para as mulheres. Espera-se que este trabalho estimule o diálogo entre colegas e outros profissionais de saúde e ainda que impulsione mais trabalhos de investigação.
Background: Sexual health is an important variable and contributor to the physical, emotional, mental and social well-being of an individual, and to a satisfactory relationship in general. Everyone has the right to live their sexuality in a free, healthy and rewarding manner. Sexual dysfunctions are a common problem among women and their definitions have evolved together with empirical studies and new theoretical models closer to the female reality. Aim: To describe the theoretical models that explain the female sexual response, to present clinical definitions of women sexual dysfunctions and discuss several clinical approaches to each dysfunction. Also to draw attention to these questions in the medical office, due to the impact they might have in a woman's life. Methods: This narrative review was written based in an overview of the literature searched in MEDLINE and in reading area books. Discussion: This section presents the three major topics this narrative review focus on: models of female sexual response, DSM-5 definitions of women sexual dysfunctions and proposals for their clinical approach. The sexual dysfunctions' characteristics, risk factors, differential diagnosis and the impact in the couple's life is discussed, as well as the importance of a holistic evaluation of a woman with these complaints. There are also discussed several techniques to a clinical approach, without forgetting that sexual dysfunctional comorbidities in the same woman are frequent. Conclusion: This narrative review can be a valuable contributor in improving sexual communication skills of general/specialized physicians and even to ordinary people interested in the theme.

Abstract:

The aim of our investigation is to explore a sexual life, experience and attitudes of women who are divided into for groups, according to their ability to reach orgasm during partnered sexual activities. We try to identify possible differences between these groups in diverse sexual areas. We do not formulate any hypothesis, our research has an exploratory character. We used data from 905 women, who participated in a nationwide research, that aims to investigate changes in Czech population sexual behavior. The research is in progress since 1993 and it repeats every five years. Our sample originates from a data collection in 2008. The data collection (using anonymous questionnaire) was conducted by a specialized agency DEMA a.s. The data were processed using SPSS 16.0. Our results are following: The orgastic ability decreases with age. Widows, pensioners, and Roman Catholics rarely experience orgasm. Highly orgasmic women are of higher education. These women engaged into partnered sexual activities (such as necking, petting, sexual intercourse) earlier than the less orgasmic women did. The highly orgasmic women more masturbate. They also reported a higher number of sexual partners during their life, and they engage into a casual sex and diverse sexual practices more often. Furthermore, the highly...

Abstract:

Orientação: Jorge Manuel dos Santos Cardoso
A Diabetes Mellitus (DM) é uma doença metabólica crónica de elevada prevalência, afetando 422 milhões de indivíduos em todo o mundo. Em Portugal, a prevalência estimada é de 13,6%, sendo a Diabetes Mellitus tipo 2 (DM2) responsável por 90% dos casos. Nas mulheres com DM, a prevalência da disfunção sexual feminina (DSF) varia entre 25-71% mas a génese da doença é ainda mal compreendida. Apesar dos trabalhos existentes sugerirem que as repercussões da doença na saúde sexual diferem consoante o tipo de DM, os estudos que avaliam o funcionamento e a satisfação sexual feminina na DM2 são em pequena quantidade, apresentam metodologias díspares e resultados contraditórios. Este trabalho visa determinar a prevalência de DSF nas utentes com DM2 de um centro de saúde da região de Lisboa, avaliar o impacto da DM2 nos vários domínios da sexualidade e analisar a influência de características biopsicossociais no funcionamento e satisfação sexual. Trata-se de um estudo transversal realizado num único centro clínico. Amostra de conveniência, constituída por 285 mulheres com idades entre os 45 e os 70 anos, 112 com o diagnóstico de DM2 e 173 sem DM. Utilizou-se os seguintes instrumentos de auto-preenchimento: questionário clínico, Índice de Funcionamento Sexual Feminino (IFSF), Nova Escala de Satisfação Sexual (NSSS) e Inventário de Sintomas Psicopatológicos (BSI). A taxa de resposta foi de 42,7%. A prevalência de DSF na amostra foi de 55,7%, sendo de 70,9% nas mulheres com DM2 e de 46,5% nas mulheres sem DM. Os preditores do funcionamento sexual na amostra estudada foram a idade, a autopercepção do estado de saúde, a presença de perturbação emocional e a terapêutica com psicofármacos e antidiabéticos orais. Os preditores da satisfação sexual foram o IFSF, a autopercepção do estado de saúde e a presença de dislipidemia. A DM2 associou-se a pontuações significativamente mais baixas no IFSF, nos domínios do desejo, excitação, orgasmo, lubrificação, satisfação e dor e também na NSSS. Nas mulheres com DM2 verificou-se uma relação significativa negativa da idade com o domínio do desejo e excitação. A duração da doença, o nível de controlo metabólico e a presença de complicações da doença não teve impacto na função sexual. Persiste a necessidade de realizar investigação orientada para a multiplicidade de factores implicados na DSF na DM2.
Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disease with high prevalence, affecting 422 million individuals worldwide. In Portugal, the estimated prevalence is 13.6%, with type 2 DM (DM2) accounting for 90% of the cases. The prevalence of female sexual dysfunction (FSD) in women with DM varies between 25-71%, but the genesis of the disease is still poorly understood. Although the existing studies suggest that the repercussions of the disease on sexual health differ according to the type of DM, the studies assessing female sexual function and satisfaction in DM2 are few and present different methodologies and contradictory results. This study aims to determine the prevalence of FSD in patients with DM2 from a clinical center in the Lisbon region, to evaluate the impact of DM2 in various domains of sexuality and to assess the influence of biopsychosocial characteristics on female sexual function and satisfaction. This is a cross-sectional study conducted at a single clinical center. Convenience sample consisting of 285 women between the ages of 45 and 70, of which 112 have DM2 and 173 do not have DM. The following self-completion instruments where used: clinical questionnaire, Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), New Sexual Satisfaction Scale (NSSS) and Brief Symptom Inventory (BSI). The response rate was 42.7%. The prevalence of FSD in the sample was 55.7%, being 70.9% in women with DM2 and 46.5% in women without DM. The sexual function predictors in the studied sample were age, self-perception of health status, presence of emotional disturbance, and treatment with psychotropic and oral antidiabetic drugs. The sexual satisfaction predictors were FSFI, self-perception of health status and presence of dyslipidemia. DM2 was associated with significantly lower scores on FSFI in the domains of desire, arousal, orgasm, lubrication, satisfaction and pain, and also on NSSS. In women with DM2 there was a significant negative relationship between age and the domains of desire and arousal. Duration of the disease, level of metabolic control and presence of disease complications had no impact on sexual function. There remains a need for further research oriented to the multiplicity of factors implicated in FSD in DM2.

Abstract:

The impact of self awareness during sexual activity has been widely discussed. However, research has been largely focused on the effects of performance anxiety in male erectile functioning. Based on research linking sexual difficulties to lower levels of body image, it has been suggested that physical appearance concerns may have a similar influence on sexual functioning in women as does men's self-awareness about erectile functioning. On the other hand, research has also shown that in some cases self awareness can improve sexual functioning among women. The role that physical appearance or awareness of one's body specifically may play in female sexual response has received little empirical attention. The aim of the current study was to examine the impact of body image on sexual arousal response to erotica among 48 women with Female Sexual Arousal Disorder (FSAD). Women were randomized to one of two Body Image conditions: Positive Body Image or Negative Body Image. Each woman participated in two sessions: Experimental and Control. In the experimental sessions, participants were asked to adopt and attend to their positive or negative body parts, and a full-length mirror was placed in front of them. Self-reported mental arousal, perceptions of physical arousal, body awareness, body image, anxiety, and cognitive distraction were assessed. Results showed that in the negative and positive experimental sessions, women experienced increased mental and perceptions of physical sexual arousal compared to the control session. Findings were mainly accounted for by levels of body image and body awareness. There were no differences in anxiety or cognitive distraction. Findings suggest that body image and body awareness, whether positive or negative, can result in increased subjective sexual arousal response.

Abstract:

Aim: This study was designed to examine the influence of female urinary incontinence on development of sexual dysfunctions. By means of the questionnaire investigation we inquired how often and how the sexual behaviour and response were modified. Our goal was to determine the prevalence of coital incontinence, describe the most common sexual disorders and to find out how women deal with the urinary incontinence in a partner relationship and how such situations are resolved. Attention was given to the interests of health care professionals in this area, the quality of their communication with patients, effect and satisfaction with therapy. Research sample: The study included 106 women with urinary incontinence (aged 30-44 years and 44-59 years). Characteristics of their sexual behaviour were compared between the two age groups and in relation to assessed diagnosis. Changes in sexual behaviour were evaluated both in relation to the population group who were a part of representative research study of Czech women in 2008 and control group of 112 healthy women of comparable age. Material and methods: To describe and analyze sexual dysfunction in incontinent women, we used a modified version of sexological questionnaire from the research study of Weiss and Zverina and two international validated...

Lower back pain is a common diagnosis of the musculoskeletal system.The rate of women suffering musculoskeletal pain morbidity is higher than the rate in men. As soon as menstruation stops, a body reduces estrogen suddenly. Loss of bone, oppression and compression of spine are caused by osteoporosis. Furthermore, it produces low back pain and limits physical activity. Female sexual dysfunction is caused by physical, psychological and social factors that interact to produce the health problems. In Taiwan, little research of female sexual dysfunction and low back pain has been conducted. Therefore, this research aims at gathering of basic information about women by using the lower back pain scale. The needed information includes: age, body mass index, occupation, marital status, production history, past information on the disease, smoking history, drinking history, etc. to clarify the correlation between low back pain and sexual dysfunction for women. The study was conducted between February 1 and June 30, 2016. By using purposive sampling, a total of 43 female patients complaining of lower back pain were involved. A structured questionnaire was formed for the female sexual function index and the Oswestry low back pain scale, female sexual function index scale, Taiwan concise version of life quality scale for data collection were used. Research data is encoded into the computer by using SPSS for windows 22.0 statistical software as the data analysis tool. The result shows that, based on the statistical analysis for lower back painwomen, there is no significant difference between demographic data attributes and sexual dysfunction.Yet, there is a consistent result with previous studies: the severity of low back pain and life quality. Those with severe lower back pain had relatively low life quality. The results Z value is of -3.42, p=.001. This present study desires to provide clinical staff members with empirical evidence for patients with clinical caring associated-diseases; thereby, to reduce health care costs, enhance patients’ well-being and improve their over all life quality.

Antipsychotic drug-induced side effects of weight gain and sexual dysfunction have clinical significance adversely affecting both compliance and morbidity. This study evaluated the effects of haloperidol and the atypical antipsychotic risperidone (0.1¿1.0 mg/kg) on weight gain, food and water intake, the oestrous cycle and uterine weight in female hooded Lister rats. Haloperidol and risperidone treated rats displayed marked weight gain, although only risperidone induced significant increases in food consumption over the 21-day period. Neither haloperidol nor risperidone influenced water consumption. Marked disruption of the oestrous cycle was observed in risperidone- and haloperidol-treated animals (0.5 and 1.0 mg/kg), which was supported by significantly reduced uterine weights. The findings presented here suggest that the weight gain and sexual dysfunction induced by antipsychotics may be modelled in rodents. This model may offer insight into the mechanisms involved in mediation of such side effects.

Abstract:

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) and erectile dysfunction (ED) have common etiologies, such as increased adiposity and chronic diseases. Incident ED is known to be a sentinel of CVD, providing a unique opportunity for early lifestyle interventions to attenuate the progression of disease. The internal pudendal artery (IPA) plays an important role in controlling resistance to penile blood flow and thereby erections. Although morphological and functional disturbances in the IPA have been associated with ED, few studies have characterized changes in the IPA as it relates to increased adiposity and chronic diseases (e.g., chronic kidney disease [CKD]). Finally, although both vascular calcification and ED have been shown to be prevalent in patients with CKD, there has yet to be an assessment of associated mechanisms. The effect of lifestyle modifications on erectile function was evaluated in both experimental and clinical settings. Specifically, the studies assessed the effect of caloric restriction (CR) in rats and of chronic exercise in sedentary, overweight or obese male and female subjects. In rats, structural and functional changes of the IPA and erectile responses were characterized in relation to increasing adiposity and to CKD. Experimentally, the susceptibility of various vascular beds to calcification in CKD was determined. Clinically, erectile and female sexual function was assessed in patients with Stage 3 to 5 CKD, who had no history of CVD. In rats, CR blunted the accumulation of abdominal adiposity, and attenuated progression of both endothelial dysfunction and ED, independently of morphological changes in the IPA. Rats with CKD had an increased frequency of ED, greater endothelial dysfunction, and altered vascular morphology, yet vascular calcification per se did not account for ED. In the clinical study, sedentary and overweight or obese males with ED, but not females, had a significantly higher body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference. Chronic exercise significantly improved ED and female sexual dysfunction (FSD). Clinically, CKD was associated with ED and FSD as well as increased coronary artery calcification and endothelial dysfunction. These findings support the concept that early detection of cardiovascular abnormalities, using incident ED as a sentinel, should facilitate early interventions in otherwise asymptomatic populations.

Abstract:

Theoretical part Currently accepted new conceptualization of women's sexual dysfunction is based on the model found in the American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM-IV) and International Classification of Diseases (ICD). These classifications are extended and combined interpersonal, contextual, personalpsychological and biological factors. Recent DSM- IV definitions have focused on absence of sexual fantasies and sexual desireprior to sexual activity and arousal, even though the frequencyof this type of desire is known to vary greatly among women without sexual complaints. DSM-IV definitions also focus on genital swelling and lubrication, entities known to correlate poorly with subjective sexual arousal and pleasure. The structure of the new classification is based on the four categories of DSM-IV: disorders of desire, arousal, orgasm and pain. However these categories are newly assigned to the subjective dimension of satisfaction, stress and the presence of disorders during other sexual activities besides intercourse. The dimension lifetime vs. acquired, generalized vs. situational were added, as well as the etiology is taking into account. For clinical work it is important that these changes highlight the significance and importance of psychological, situational...
