The study included 248 women who have been in menopause for at least 1 year, have sexual partners. The data were collected with Patient Information Form, Menopause Rating Scale, Female Sexual Distress Scale-Revised, Sexual Quality of Life Questionnaire-Female Scale, and Revised Dyadic Adjustment Scales. Urogenital complaints of those with sexual dysfunction were statistically significantly higher (p = 0.002). Marital adjustment total score of those with Menopause Rating Scale score of <20 were statistically significantly higher than those with MRS score of 20 and higher (p = 0.041; p = 0.015). As menopausal symptom severity increased, marital adjustment decreased. The urogenital complaint score in menopause period had a positive correlation with sexual distress and a negative correlation with the quality of sexual life and Revised Dyadic Adjustment Scale (RDAS) score. As a result of the present study, it was determined that menopause-related complaints affected the quality of sexual life of women and thus their marital adjustment.

摘要

本研究旨在揭示更年期女性的抱怨与性问题状况、性生活质量和婚姻调整之间的关系。该研究包括 248 名绝经至少 1 年、有性伴侣的女性。使用患者信息表、更年期评定量表、女性性困扰量表-修订版、性生活质量问卷-女性量表和修订后的二元调整量表收集数据。性功能障碍患者的泌尿生殖系统主诉在统计学上显着更高（p  = 0.002）。更年期评定量表评分<20者的婚姻调整总分显着高于MRS评分20及以上者（p = 0.041; p  = 0.015）。随着更年期症状严重程度的增加，婚姻调整减少。更年期泌尿生殖系统投诉评分与性困扰呈正相关，与性生活质量和修订二元调整量表（RDAS）评分呈负相关。作为本研究的结果，确定与更年期相关的抱怨影响了女性的性生活质量，从而影响了她们的婚姻调整。
