Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate sexual functions and marital adjustment which are neglected issue in married femalepatients diagnosed with Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) and to reveal the factors affecting these.Materials and Methods: Sexually active, 47 married females who diagnosed with FMS and 50 healthy volunteers in a similar age groupwere included in the study. Beck anxiety inventory, beck depression inventory, female sexual function index (FSFI) and dyadic adjustment scale(DAS) evaluations were also performed for both groups.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı; Fibromiyalji sendromlu (FMS) evli kadınlarda, ihmal edilmiş bir konu olan cinsel fonksiyonların ve evlilik uyumunun araştırılmasıdır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Kırk yedi cinsel aktif FMS tanılı kadın ve benzer yaş grubunda 50 sağlıklı, gönüllü çalışmaya alındı. Beck anksiyete ölçeği, beck depresyon ölçeği, kadın cinsel fonksiyon indeksi (KCFİ) ve evlilik uyum ölçeği (EUÖ) her iki grupta uygulandı. Hasta grubunda ağrı şiddeti vizüel analog skala ile ve hastalık nedeniyle oluşan fonksiyonel bozukluk ise fibromyalji etki anketi (FEA) ile değerlendirildi. Bulgular: İki grup arasında sosyo-demografik özellikler arasında fark yoktu. KCFİ ve EUÖ total skorları kontrol grubu ile karşılaştırıldığında hasta grubunda daha düşüktü (p=0,028, p
