Resumen
La sexualidad es un aspecto central de la calidad de vida de la mujer y es el reflejo de su nivel de bienestar físico, psicológico y social. Sin embargo, frecuentemente en la práctica clínica se observan problemas serios de sexualidad. En un estudio presentado en el XXIII Curso Internacional de Postgrado “Actualizaciones En Gineco-obstetricia. Tema: Trastornos Sexuales Femeninos” 2001, se ha descrito que los trastornos de la sexualidad afectan aproximadamente al 50% de las mujeres de edad media, comprometiendo principalmente el deseo y la excitación. El índice de función sexual femenino (FSFI) es una herramienta con propiedades psicométricas óptimas para cada uno de los 6 dominios ( deseo, excitación, orgasmo, dolor sexual, lubricación y satisfacción ) fácil de usar, y ha demostrado la capacidad de discriminar entre poblaciones clínicas (mujeres con disfunción sexual) y no clínicas (sin alteraciones sexuales). El objetivo del presente estudio, de tipo descriptivo, correlacional, diseño no experimental, transversal, es demostrar que la función sexual femenina es evaluable mediante el FSFI corto. Se llevó a cabo en el del Hospital Gineco-Obstétrico Enrique C. Sotomayor, tomando como muestra 300 mujeres entre 40 y 59 años. Entre los relevantes resultados se destacan la edad media del estudio 47años. El 45.3% de las mujeres estudiadas son postmenopáusicas. Un 45.7% de las mujeres encuestadas presentaron puntaje de FSFI-6 sugestivos de disfunción sexual (19 o menos). Los puntajes bajos de FSFI-6 se relacionaron con la edad avanzada, disfunción sexual del compañero, y menopausia.
Sexuality is a central aspect of quality of life of women and reflects their level of physical, psychological and social. However, frequently in clinical practice it has been seen serious problems with sexuality. In a study presented in XXIII the Course the International “Updates In Gineco-obstetrics. Subject: Feminine Sexual upheavals” 2001, have been described that the upheavals of the sexuality affect approximately to 50% of middleaged women, compromising mainly the desire and arousal. The female sexual function index (FSFI) is a tool with optimal psychometric properties for each of the 6 domains ( desire, excitation, orgasmo, sexual pain, lubrication and satisfaction ), easy to use, and has demonstrated the ability to discriminate between clinical populations (women with sexual dysfunction) and nonclinical (unaltered sex). The aim of this study that is descriptive, correlational, nonexperimental, cross is to demonstrate that women's sexual function can be evaluated by the FSFI short. It will be held at the Hospital of Gynecology and Obstetrics Enrique C. Sotomayor, taking as sample 300 women between 40 and 59. Between the excellent results they stand out 47años the average age of the study. 45.3% were postmenopausal. A 45.7% of surveyed women presented FSFI-6 scores suggestive of sexual dysfunction (19 or less). Lower sexual function (lower total FSFI-6 scores) was significantly related to older age, hormonal status and partner sexual dysfunction.
