“…Após avaliação da amostra constatou-se que 12 artigos buscaram de modo semelhante avaliar as repercussões da menopausa para as práticas sexuais principalmente em relação aos seus aspectos físicos e biológicos (Alves et al, 2015;Burri, Hilpert, & Spector, 2015;Correa et al, 2012;Davison, Bell, LaChina, Holden, & Davis, 2009;Fonnegra, & Bojacá, 2009;Gradim, Sousa, & Lobo, 2007;Kokcu et al, 2015;McCall, & Meston, 2007;McCall-Hosenfeld et al, 2008;Trindade, & Ferreira, 2008;Woloski-Wruble, Oliel, Leefsma, & Hochner-Celnikier, 2010;Yucel, & Eroglu, 2013).

Mesmo considerando a importância da mensuração de tais aspectos e suas influências para a sexualidade foram evidenciadas limitações nos resultados desses estudos -pois ao enfatizarem a sintomatologia, os aspectos psicossociais, culturais e emocionais da sexualidade (intimamente relacionados aos fatores fisiológicos) não foram contemplados pelos instrumentos e escalas utilizados (Burri et al, 2015).…”
