Female Sexual Dysfunction in Subjects with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

The correlation of female sexual dysfunction (FSD) with the degree of glycemic control, the duration and complications of diabetic disease and cardiovascular risk factors are not so clear.

      ab: The correlation of female sexual dysfunction (FSD) with the degree of glycemic control, the duration and complications of diabetic disease and cardiovascular risk factors are not so clear. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of FSD in a sample of females with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and to identify factors involved in its pathogenesis. We enrolled 81 females who have T2DM. We administered the female sexual function index (FSFI), self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and self-rating depression scale (SDS) questionnaires. We also estimated anthropometric parameters, glyco-metabolic control, comorbidities, autonomic nervous system assessment, some adipocytokines and ongoing therapy. 87% of participants were affected by FSD. There was evidence of an inverse correlation between the total score of the FSFI questionnaire and the mean of the values ​​of HbA1c in the previous years. There was an inverse correlation with the duration of diabetes and homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance index in participants not affected by FSD. Participants with FSD have a higher prevalence of anxiety (p = 0.043) and participants with depression and ischemic heart disease scored less on the FSFI questionnaire (p = 0.005 and p = 0.010, respectively). Homocysteine ​​and E-selectin values ​were higher in participants with FSFI (p = 0.002, and p = 0.017, respectively). Most of the enrolled females with T2DM had FSD. Glycemic control, ischemic heart disease, endothelial dysfunction, autonomic neuropathy, and psychological conditions, such as anxiety and depression, seem to have a close correlation with FSD. An early diagnosis of FSD can help to improve not only participants' quality of life, but also to early identify and treat risk factors related not only to FSD, but also to cardiovascular risk. Therefore, we highly recommend that clinicians have a high index of suspicion for FSD in females with T2DM.
