The complex impacts of early sexual intercourse, biological sex, and sexual orientation on the risk of depression
Objective
To better understand the impacts of biological sex, sexual orientation and early sexual intercourse on depression.
Methods
Data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey database from 2005 to 2016 were used. First sexual intercourse before 18 years of age was defined as early sexual intercourse. Participants who were not heterosexual were considered sexual minorities.
Results
This study enrolled 15,231 participants. After adjusting for confounders, early sexual intercourse was a risk factor for depression only for female heterosexual (OR = 1.66, 95 % CI: 1.28, 2.16). Female biological sex was a risk factor for depression in heterosexual individuals, regardless of early sexual intercourse (without early sexual intercourse: OR = 2.77, 95 % CI: 1.30, 5.92; with early sexual intercourse: OR = 1.64, 95 % CI: 1.08, 2.50). However, female biological sex was not significantly associated with the risk of depression in sexual minorities. Sexual minority status was a risk factor for depression, except for male individuals without early sexual intercourse. Interestingly, for biological female individuals with early sexual intercourse, homosexuality was associated with a lower risk of depression (OR = 0.28, 95 % CI: 0.09, 0.85).
Conclusion
The impacts of early sexual intercourse, biological sex and sexual orientation on the risk of depression are contingent on each other.
