Saglik Bilimleri Universitesi200 enrolled

Overview

Background and Aim: Sexual functions generally decrease during pregnancy, and high-risk pregnancies are more severe clinical conditions that cause couples to reduce or abstain entirely from their intimacy. However, the evidence on the sexual functions in high-risk pregnancies is scarce. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the sexual function changes in high-risk pregnancies compared to normal pregnancies. Methods: A total of 200 pregnant women (100 women in high-risk pregnancy and normal pregnancy groups each) were included. Demographic and obstetric data were collected, and participants completed The Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI).
