How do urinary incontinence types affect sexual function and quality of life for Turkish women?

Abstract: Objective Urinary incontinence (UI) subtypes may have some effects on sexual function because of diverse pathophysiological mechanisms. The objective of our study is to compare UI subtypes’ effects on women's sexual function and quality of life (QoL). Methods In this descriptive and comparative study, a total of 239 women with UI were included (89 with stress urinary incontinence [SUI], 65 with urge urinary incontinence [UUI], and 85 with mixed urinary incontinence [MUI]). Sexual function was assessed with the… Show more

“…Regarding the direct effect of UI-symptom severity on QoL and SF, our results support previous research in the field of UI, which links symptom severity and QoL (e.g., Lasserre et al, 2009;Abrams et al, 2015) and SF (e.g., Fatton et al, 2014;Bilgic and Kizilkaya Beji, 2020) (although in the absence of a comparison group with women without UI, in previous studies). Several studies report women with UI symptomatology as having poorer QoL and SF 17 , lower libido, lubrification, and satisfaction, as also shown by our data.…”

“…However, most studies have explored Sexual Function and Quality of Life without comparing their counterparts with no urine loss. For example, Bilgic and Kizilkaya Beji (2020) , who studied the impact of UI types on the aforementioned variables, concluded that one of their study’s limitations was the lack of a control group without UI. Likewise, Fatton et al (2014) found that the presence of UI was significantly associated with poor SF, but only focused on women with UI.…”
