    Abstract:
    We assessed the prevalence of sexual dysfunction in the women living in the South of Russia. The study included 540 women aged between 18-75 years (mean age 35.3 +/- 0.505 years) who filled in an original 14-point questionnaire and modified for Russia the female sexual function index (FSFI) questionnaire. The women were divided into four age groups: group 1 (n = 253)--18-30 years; group 2 (n = 175)--31-45 years; group 3 (n = 76)--46-55 years; group 4 (n = 40)--over 55 years. For 540 women the mean total point was 24.75. FSFI under 24.75 was found in 247 (45.5%) women. The mean total point was 23.43 +/- 0.366 for group 1, 22.15 +/- 0.504 for group 2, 16.71 +/- 0.504 for group 3, 16.71 +/- 1.05 for group 4. Mean points by desire were 4.43 +/- 0.071, 3.75 +/- 0.094, 2.93 +/- 0.14, 2.35 +/- 0.23, respectively. By arousal, 4.33 +/- 0.077, 3.87 +/- 0.105, 2.73 +/- 0.18 and 2.04 +/- 0.28, respectively. By lubrication, 4.66 +/- 0.097, 4.44 +/- 0.125, 3.13 +/- 0.25, 1.86 +/- 0.32, respectively. By orgasm, 3.48 +/- 0.069, 3.43 +/- 0.08, 2.57 +/- 0.18, 1.7 +/- 0.27, respectively. By satisfaction, 4.53 +/- 0.101, 4.33 +/- 0.13, 3.26 +/- 0.25, 1.97 +/- 0.39, respectively. By pain, 2.33 +/- 0.085, 2.31 +/- 0.099, 2.07 +/- 0.17, 1.02 +/- 0.2, respectively. Thus, 45.5% women in the south of Russia have sexual dysfunction. Desire, arousal, lubrication and orgasm disorders are more pronounced.
