Abstract

Background: Obesity is rapidly increasing worldwide with negative effects on women's health, psychosocial factors and quality of life. Female sexual dysfunction (FSD) is a major public health problem that is worrying for many women physically, emotionally and socially.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the association of body weight with FSD and sexual satisfaction, in Ilam, western Iran, in 2010 to 2011.

Patients and methods: This was a case-control study on 120 women aged 18-50 years [64 with FSD (case), 64 without FSD (control)] married, from Ilam-IR, who were interviewed as per the Iranian version of Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI). Body mass index (BMI) and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) were recorded by researchers. The subjects were randomly selected from primary health centers.

Results: FSFI score was significantly lower in overweight women (P < 0.05). FSFI strongly correlated with body mass index (BMI) (r = -0.68, P < 0.001) and waist-to-hip ratio (r = -0.29, P < 0.05) in women with FSD. Of sexual function parameters, there was a strong and inverse correlation between BMI and arousal (r = -0.71, P < 0.001), lubrication (r = -0.61, P < 0.001), orgasm (r = -0.52, P < 0.001) and satisfaction (r = -0.54, P < 0.001), while pain (r = -0.12, P > 0.05) and desire (r = -0.17, P > 0.05) did not correlate with BMI. There was an association between BMI and extreme satisfaction (r = -0.28, P < 0.05). Extreme physical pleasure (r = -0.19, P > 0.05) and extreme emotional satisfaction (r = -0.16, P > 0.05) were not correlated with BMI.

Conclusions: Overweight and obesity negative affect sexuality in women with sexual dysfunction. A systematic evaluation of sexual function to disclose a cause and effect relationship between obesity and FSD is suggested.

体重与女性性功能障碍的关系:一项病例对照研究。
背景:肥胖在世界范围内迅速增加,对妇女健康、社会心理因素和生活质量产生负面影响。女性性功能障碍(FSD)是一个重大的公共卫生问题,在身体上、情感上和社会上困扰着许多妇女。目的:本研究的目的是调查2010年至2011年伊朗西部伊拉姆地区体重与FSD和性满意度的关系。患者和方法:这是一项病例对照研究,来自Ilam-IR的120名年龄在18-50岁的已婚女性[64名患有FSD(病例),64名没有FSD(对照组)],根据伊朗版女性性功能指数(FSFI)对她们进行了访谈。研究人员记录了身体质量指数(BMI)和腰臀比(WHR)。研究对象是从初级保健中心随机选择的。结果:超重女性FSFI评分明显低于对照组(P < 0.05)。FSFI与FSD患者的身体质量指数(BMI) (r = -0.68, P < 0.001)和腰臀比(r = -0.29, P < 0.05)密切相关。在性功能指标中,BMI与性唤起(r = -0.71, P < 0.001)、润滑(r = -0.61, P < 0.001)、性高潮(r = -0.52, P < 0.001)、满意度(r = -0.54, P < 0.001)呈显著负相关,而疼痛(r = -0.12, P > 0.05)、性欲(r = -0.17, P > 0.05)与BMI无显著相关。BMI与极度满意度之间存在相关性(r = -0.28, P < 0.05)。身体极度愉悦(r = -0.19, P > 0.05)和情绪极度满足(r = -0.16, P > 0.05)与BMI无相关性。结论:超重和肥胖对性功能障碍女性的性行为有负面影响。建议对性功能进行系统评估,以揭示肥胖与FSD之间的因果关系。
