Abstract: | Female sexual dysfunction is a common health problem for many women all over the world. This study was constructed to determine risk factors and prevalence of female sexual dysfunction among Turkish women, in Ordu province of Turkey between May 2008 and December 2008. Four hundred and twenty-five married women, between 18 and 56 years of age, who consented to participate, were included in the study. Data was collected by using a questionnaire form and the Female Sexual Function Index. The prevalence of female sexual dysfunction was 52.2%. The risk factors for female sexual dysfunction were, low education level of the woman (odds ratio [OR] = 1.830, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.088–3.078), low education level of the husband (OR = 1.734, 95% CI = 1.094–2.750), being brought up by parents with restrictive attitudes (OR =1.558, 95% CI = 1.001–2.424), and having genital infections or symptoms (OR = 1.925, 95% CI = 1.213–3.055). |
