Filter by:This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of pelvic floor muscle exercises during pregnancy on sexual function, lower urinary tract symptoms and birth process. The research was conducted with pregnant women who applied to the Pregnancy Outpatient Clinic of Istanbul University-Cerrahpasa Cerrahpasa Faculty of Medicine Hospital. Power analysis was performed to determine the number of samples to be included in the study. It was determined that 29 pregnant women should be included in each group (experimental and control). Considering the possibility of data loss, 50 pregnant women were included in each group. As a result of the exclusion of 8 women who withdrew from participating in the study, 5 women due to risky pregnancies (bleeding, preeclampsia and gestational diabetes) and 17 women due to cesarean delivery, the data of 35 pregnant women in the experimental group and 35 pregnant women in the control group were obtained. Pregnant women in the experimental group were gestational aged 18-20. Two sessions of training were given on female reproductive and urinary system anatomy, physiological changes during pregnancy and their effects on sexual life, and pelvic floor muscle exercises, using the "Pelvic Floor Health & Sexual Life Training Booklet during Pregnancy" and the pelvic floor muscle exercise training video developed by the researcher between the weeks of pregnancy. Pregnant women were asked to perform pelvic floor muscle exercises, 3 sets a day, 3 days a week, for 12 weeks, starting from the 20th week of pregnancy, and record them in the Pelvic Floor Muscle Exercise Follow-up Form created by the researcher. Pregnant women in the control group were not given any training and were routinely monitored in the outpatient clinic. Pregnant women who apply to the outpatient clinic are examined by nurses, with their vital signs taken and anamnesis taken by the physician. Recommendations are made regarding the complaints of pregnant women. Non-stress tests are routinely applied to pregnant women who are at the 36th week of pregnancy and above.
This study was conducted as a randomized pretest-posttest study to examine the effect of sexual counseling based on the PLISSIT model on post-menopausal women's sexual functions, marital adjustment and quality of sexual life. Sixty women (Experimental=30, Control=30) that applied to the menopause policlinic of a Women Diseases Training and Research Hospital were included in the study. Two women dropped out later, so the study was completed with 58 (Experimental=29, Control=29) women. Firstly, women were separated into two groups according to the cut-point of (26,55) in The Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) (those who score 26,6 and above or 26,5 and below) and then these two groups were divided into intervention and control groups randomly. Data were collected with Descriptive Questions Form, Menopause Symptom Evaluation Scale (MRS), FSFI, Marital adjustment Scale (MAS) and Sexual Quality of Life Questionnaire Scale - Female Version (SQOL-F) between September 07, 2020 and March 26, 2021. The intervention group was given sexual counselling, prepared in line with the PLISSIT model, for three weeks, once a week and lasting approximately one hour. The effect of the counseling was tested twelve weeks after counseling was completed. Women in the control group were also interviewed twice concurrent with the intervention group; once when the counseling began and once during the last assessment. Women in the control group filled some data forms. After the study was completed, the counseling was also given to women who wanted it, in the control group. Frequency and percentage values, descriptive statistics, Fisher's Exact Test, Pearson Chi Square, t tests, for non-normally distributed data Mann Whitney U test and the Wilcoxon test were used for data analysis.

The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of performing prophylactic McCall culdoplasty at the time of total laparoscopic hysterectomy. The investigators will also be measuring pelvic support (using POP-Q) and sexual function before and at different time points (up to 12 months) postoperatively. The investigators hypothesize that women undergoing the McCall culdoplasty will not have different immediate surgical outcomes (operative time, etc) and may have better pelvic support and sexual function in the future.
This is a single center, double-blind, randomized controlled trial evaluating the change in sexual function in women undergoing vaginal repair for pelvic organ prolapse. Participants will be sexually active women who agree to randomization to having perineorrhaphy added to or excluded from their surgical repair. We hypothesize that sexual function will improve more significantly in women undergoing vaginal repair with perineorrhaphy.
The aim of this study is to determine the impact of reduction mammaplasty on sexuality and depression predictors in women with macromastia.
The purpose of this study is estimate how sexual function in endometrial cancer survivors varies with severity of disease.
Women with Advanced Ovarian Cancer (AOC) suffer from severe sexual side effects from treatment. The prevalence of the sexual issues is not known. The degree to which these sexual side effects is affected by treatment is also not known, as the literature in this area focuses on post-treatment analysis. Specific Aim #1 (Quantitative Phase): To determine the prevalence and types of sexual difficulties using self-report questionnaires in women about to receive treatment for Stage III or IV Ovarian Cancer at the BCCA and over time, and to correlate these symptoms with degree of cancer symptoms, well-being, depressive symptoms, and relationship satisfaction
