Amaç: Bu çalışmada gebe kadınlarda kaygı düzeyinin evlilik uyumu ve cinsel doyum ile ilişkili olup olmadığını araştırmak amaçlanmıştır.

Yöntem: Prospektif çalışmamız Haziran—Ağustos 2020 döneminde bir kadın hastalıkları ve doğum kliniğinde gerçekleştirilmiş ve 70 gebe kadın içermiştir. Katılımcıla¬rı değerlendirmek için Evlilik Uyum Ölçeği (EUÖ), Golombok–Rust Cinsel Doyum Envanteri (GRCDE) ve Beck Anksiyete Envanteri’nin (BAE) Türkçe versiyonları kullanılmıştır. Verilerin normal dağılımı Kolmogorov–Smirnov testiyle, BAE ile GRCDE ve EUÖ arasındaki ilişki ise Spearman korelasyon testiyle değerlendirilmiştir.

Bulgular: Ortalama katılımcı yaşı 27,97±3,83 yıldı. Tüm katılımcıların %47,1’i lise mezunu, %68,6’sı aktif çalışan, %70’i 3000₺ ila 10000₺ gelir sahibi, %31,4’ü sigara içicisi idi. Elli iki (%74,3) katılımcı 1 ila 3 yıldır evliydi. Ortalama BAE skoru 10,66±9,45 olup hafif anksiyeteye işaret etmekteydi. Ortalama EUÖ skoru 37,71±10,11 olup evlilikte uyumsuzluğa işaret etmek¬teydi. Ortalama GRCDE skoru ise 31,30±12,28 olup cinsel işlev bozukluğu olmadığı anlamına gelmekteydi. Anksiyete ile evlilik uyumu arasında negatif (p=0,020), anksiyete ile cinsel işlev bozukluğu arasında pozitif korelasyon (p=0,006) saptandı.

Sonuç: Gebe kadınların anksiyete düzeyi evlilik uyumundan ve cinsel doyumdan etkilenebilir. Evlilik uyumsuzluğu olan gebeler sağlık merkezlerine başvuruları sırasında gebe¬likte anksiyete bakımından değerlendirilmelidirler.

The Relationship of Anxiety Level to Marital Adjustment and Sexual Satisfaction in Pregnant Women

Öz

Aim: In this study, we aimed to investigate whether anxiety levels were related to marital adjustment and sexual satisfaction in pregnant women.

Methods: The prospective study was conducted at a gynecology and obstet¬rics outpatient clinic between June and August 2020 and included 70 pregnant women. The Turkish versions of the Marital Adjustment Scale (MAS), the Golombok–Rust Inventory of Sexual Satisfaction (GRISS), and the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) were used to evaluate the participants. The Kolmogorov–Smirnov and Spearman correlation tests were used to evaluate the normal distribution of the data and the relationship between the BAI and the GRISS and MAS, respectively.

Results: The mean participant age was 27.97±3.83 years. Of all participants, 47.1% had a high school degree, 70% had an income of ₺3000 to ₺10000, 68.6% were working women, and 31.4% were smokers. Fifty-two (74.3%) had been married for 1 to 3 years. The mean BAI score was 10.66±9.45, indicating mild anxiety. The mean MAS score was 37.71±10.11, indicating mari¬tal maladjustment. The mean GRISS score was 31.30±12.28, which indicated no sexual dys¬function. We found a negative correlation between anxiety and marital adjustment (p=0.020) and a positive correlation between anxiety and sexual dysfunction (p=0.006).

Conclusion: The anxiety level of pregnant women can be affected by marital adjustment and sexual satisfaction. Pregnant women with marital maladjustment should be assessed for anxiety in pregnancy during their visits to healthcare centers.
