dc.description.abstract | Objectives: Female sexual functioning and satisfaction are affected by the presence of sexual difficulties. The current study examines differences in sexual satisfaction according to three groups of women: (i) clinical sexual difficulties assessed by the Female Sexual Functioning Index (FSFI) cut-off; (ii) self-perceived sexual difficulties at a non-clinical level; and (iii) sexually healthy. Methods: A convenience sample of 329 Portuguese women, with a mean age of 28.69 (SD = 8.78), answered a specific question on the presence of self-perceived sexual difficulties, the Sexual Satisfaction Scale for Women and the FSFI. From the 329 women, 56 were assigned to the group with clinical sexual difficulties, 60 were assigned to the group with self-perceived sexual difficulties at nonclinical level, and 213 constituted the sexually healthy group. Results: Sexually healthy women were more sexually satisfied compared with women who self-perceived sexual difficulties and women who had clinical sexual difficulties according to the FSFI. In addition, women who self-perceived sexual difficulties were also more sexually satisfied compared to women with clinical sexual difficulties according to the FSFI. Conclusions: Women's sexual satisfaction was negatively affected by sexual difficulties assessed by the FSFI cut-off. Although with less impact, self-perceived sexual difficulties also negatively affect women's sexual satisfaction. | pt_PT |
