Abstract

Abstract Objectives: to evaluate associated factors with sexual dysfunction among middle-aged women. Methods: cross-sectional and analytical study was carried out with climacteric women attended at a Family Health Strategy Unit in the city of Montes Claros, MG. Brazil. The eligible women answered a question form containing sociodemographic, behavioral, anthropometric, gynecological factors and sexuality. The Body Mass Index and waist circumference were used to assess nutritional status and metabolic risk. To evaluate quality of life and sexual performance the Menopause Rating Scale and the Sexual Quotient - Female Version were used, respectively. Bivariate analysis and hierarchical multiple regression were used to identify associated factors with sexual dysfunction in the climacteric period. Results: among 195 women, 29.6% had sexual dysfunction. The prevalence of unsatisfactory sexual performance was higher among women who reported moderate to severe climacteric symptoms (OR=2.47) and lower schooling level was also associated (OR=1.95). However, age at menarche below 12 years (OR=0.43) and non-white (OR=0.36) seem to have a protective effect for good sexual performance. Conclusion: the prevalence of sexual dysfunction was high and the level of schooling and climacteric symptomatology were associated factors with this outcome.

更年期性功能障碍及其相关因素

摘要目的:探讨中年女性性功能障碍的相关因素。方法:横断面和分析研究进行了更年期妇女出席蒙特斯克拉罗斯市的家庭健康战略单位，MG。巴西。符合条件的妇女回答了一份包含社会人口学、行为学、人体测量学、妇科因素和性行为的问题表。体重指数和腰围被用来评估营养状况和代谢风险。为了评估生活质量和性表现，分别使用更年期评定量表和性商-女性版本。采用双变量分析和分层多元回归分析方法确定更年期性功能障碍的相关因素。结果:195名女性中有29.6%存在性功能障碍。在报告中度至重度更年期症状的女性中，性表现不满意的发生率较高(OR=2.47)，且受教育程度较低也相关(OR=1.95)。然而，月经初潮年龄在12岁以下(OR=0.43)和非白种人(OR=0.36)似乎对良好的性行为有保护作用。结论:性功能障碍患病率高，受教育程度和更年期症状是导致这一结果的相关因素。
