“…Studies also explored that sexual dysfunction is one of the offshoots among patients of CKD, especially those with ESRD [ 7 , 17 ]. A Turkish study by Bayram et al reported reduced sexual function in female patients with renal disorder [ 13 ]. A study found that 46% of ESRD female patients showed a decrease in sexual desire [ 18 ].…”

“…Bayram et al documented that sexual dysfunction in females can be assessed through various physiological traits such as difficulty in sexual desire, arousal, vaginal lubrication, orgasm achievement, and pain during intercourse [ 13 ]. The aim of the current study is to measure and compare the Female Sexual Functions of Dialysis (FSFI) scores among three comparative study groups, i.e.…”

Introduction: In the recent past, the procedure of hemodialysis has frequently been opted for patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) around the globe. In such patients, the concern of sexual dysfunction is highly prevalent, which causes psychological as well as social deterioration in these patients. Wretchedly, this issue has been ignored in developing countries like Pakistan because of social and cultural constraints.Objectives: The aim was to measure and compare Female Sexual Functions of Dialysis (FSFI) scores among three comparative groups: healthy controls, pre-dialysis patients, and hemodialysis patients.Methods: A comparative cross-sectional study was carried out with 60 females aged 22-50 years in which 20 were healthy (controls) and 40 were patients with ESRD; of these 40, 20 were taking only oral medicines (pre-dialysis) and 20 were also receiving hemodialysis (hemodialysis). Married women who could read Urdu and were living with live spouses were included, and those with any psychological or psychiatric illness were excluded. Data was collected through a Likert-scaled questionnaire, Urdu translation of the FSFI questionnaire, and scores of each domain were analyzed. Single-tail one-way ANOVA was used to observe the significant difference among the three comparative groups.Results: A strong statistical difference was observed among the hemodialysis, pre-dialysis, and healthy control groups when these three study groups were compared for the mean scores of all related domains of FSFI questtionarie. In each female sexual domain, i.e. Desire, Arousal, Lubrication, Orgasm, Satisfaction, and Pain, the diseased groups (pre-dialysis and hemodialysis) showed lower sexual scores than the healthy group. The lowest scores were observed in the pre-dialysis group (16.4 ± 6.8) and the highest were noticed in the healthy group (29.9 ± 1.8); the hemodialysis group (23.3 ± 5.0) expressed a moderate pattern of scores in each sexual domain.Conclusion: ESRD female patients who were receiving hemodialysis along with routine oral medications showed improved sexual physiology (with better FSFI scores) compared to those who were without hemodialysis.

Background: To prolong survival and to provide a better quality of life (QoL) are two aims at the forefront in the care of peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. In this study we aimed to determine frequency of sexual dysfunction (SD) and influencing factors in PD patients. Methods: Of the 201 patients, 114 under 65 years and on chronic ambulatory PD for at least 3 months were enrolled. Forty-nine females and 65 males completed the study. Survey forms were applied using face-to-face interview method. Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) was used to assess SD in women; International Index for Erectile Function (IIEF) was used to assess erectile dysfunction (ED) in men. All patients completed SF-36 and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) forms. Results: While SD was evident in 89.8% of female patients (FSFI score:10.4 ± 9.7), ED was present in 87.7% of males (IIEF score:13.8 ± 7.9). Depression rates were 65.3% and 49.2% in female and male patients, respectively. BDI scores were 21.6 ± 10.4 and 17.1 ± 9.5; physical component scores, 52.6 ± 20.4 and 55.2 ± 20.2; mental component scores, 45.2 ± 19.8 and 49.9 ± 22, in female and male patients, respectively. FSFI was correlated with age (β = −0.53 p < 0.001) and BDI score (β = −0.23 p = 0.04), ( R2 = 0.64). ED showed correlation with age (β = −0.36 p < 0.001), BDI score (β = −0.57 p < 0.001), and hemoglobin level (β = 0.26 p = 0.003), ( R2 = 0.74). Conclusion: SD, often overlooked and not discussed by both patients and physicians, is encountered relatively frequently among PD patients. Left not discussed and untreated SD may adversely affect QoL.

“…Sexual dysfunction is one of these problems and is defined as problems that individuals or their partners have during any stage of normal sexual activity, including sexual desire, plateau, ejaculation/orgasm, or resolution (Johansen, 2020). Sexual dysfunction is commonly observed in adults receiving HD and PD, and its prevalence ranges from 67% to 100% in both HD and PD worldwide (Bayram et al., 2021; Pyrgidis et al., 2021; Shakiba et al., 2020).…”

AimTo explore relationship coping strategies and sexual dysfunction, and the predictive factors of sexual dysfunction in adults receiving haemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis.BackgroundSexual dysfunction is a common problem in adults receiving haemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis. This problem may be related to psychological and physiological conditions. However, the association between psychological conditions such as coping strategies and sexual dysfunction is not clearly understood.DesignThis study is a cross‐sectional study.MethodsThe data were collected from November 2021 to July 2022 using the General Information Form, Arizona Sexual Experiences Scale: Female and Male Versions, and the Ways of Coping Inventory. Correlation and multiple regression analyses were conducted to investigate the relationship between coping strategies and sexual dysfunction.Reporting MethodSTROBE checklist.ResultsA total of 110 adults, 67 on haemodialysis and 43 on peritoneal dialysis, who met the eligibility criteria were included in this study. The optimistic, helpless and submissive approach sub‐dimensions of coping strategies had positive correlation with sexual dysfunction in adults receiving haemodialysis. Among the sub‐dimensions of the ways of coping inventory, helpless approach was positive predictor and seeking social support was negative predictor of sexual dysfunction in adults receiving haemodialysis. The coping strategies were not predictors of sexual dysfunction for adults receiving peritoneal dialysis.ConclusionsThis study showed that helpless coping strategy increases sexual dysfunction, and seeking social support decreases sexual dysfunction in haemodialysis.Implications for the profession and/or patient careAccording to this study, social support is effective coping strategy for reducing sexual dysfunction. Education and support for effective coping strategies should be provided to dialysis patients by healthcare professionals at the start of dialysis treatment. Effective coping strategies should be integrated into routine care standards and nursing or hospital policies.Patient or Public ContributionAdults receiving haemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis were involved in this study.
