NCT ID: NCT05223621 Enrolling by invitation - Turner Syndrome Clinical Trials

Sexuality and Sexual Quality of Life in Adult Patients With Turner Syndrome (TS) Compared With Patients With Primary Ovarian Insufficiency Different From TS

SEXATURN
Start date: February 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Turner syndrome (TS) is a rare disease affecting 1/2500 female. It is defined by a complete or partial loss of an X chromosome associated with clinical signs. The most frequent signs are a small height and primary ovarian insufficiency (POI). POI occurs in 95% of patients with TS. Clinically, patients have amenorrhea with elevated FSH levels (> 25 IU/L), before the age of 40. In most cases, patients receive hormonal replacement therapy. Among patients with POI, TS is present in less than 10% of cases. Therefore POI may occur in patients with normal karyotype, therefore without TS. Preliminary data suggest altered sexual function in patients with TS. The first goal of our study is to evaluate sexual function and sexual quality in patients with TS using a questionnaire, the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI). The second goal is to compare sexual quality in patients in patients with TS compared to female patients with POI not related to TS. Our study should identify predictive markers of altered sexual function. The final endpoint is to optimize the quality of life of patients with TS and to enhance, if necessary psychological support in such patients.
