High-risk human papillomaviruses are known to increase the risk of developing many cancers, including cancers of the cervix, vulva, vagina, head and neck. In addition to cancers, human papillomavirus infections can also cause genital warts, infertility and sexual dysfunction. In this review, the literature on the effect of human papillomavirus on sexual dysfunction was examined. In the literature review, it was determined that human papillomavirus test positivity in women can directly cause deterioration in sexual function or indirectly cause feelings such as guilt, anger, sadness, stigma and shame, leading to a decrease in sexual interest-desire level and frequency of sexual intercourse. However, it has been observed that in men, it can directly increase the risk of premature ejaculation and erectile dysfunction or indirectly cause feelings such as depression, anxiety, stigma and fear of infection, leading to sexual dysfunction. Nurses who care for individuals infected with human papilloma virus should evaluate patients in terms of psychological and sexual function and take precautions accordingly.

Öz

Yüksek riskli human papilloma virüslerinin serviks, vulva, vajina, baş ve boyun kanserleri de dahil olmak üzere birçok kanserin gelişme riskini artırdığı bilinmektedir. Kanserlerin yanı sıra, human papilloma virüs enfeksiyonları genital siğiller, infertilite ve cinsel fonksiyon bozukluğuna da neden olabilmektedir. Bu derlemede human papilloma virüsünün cinsel fonksiyon bozukluğuna etkisine yönelik literatür incelenmiştir. Literatür incelemesinde kadınlarda human papilloma virüs testi pozitifliğinin doğrudan cinsel fonksiyonda bozulmaya ya da dolaylı olarak suçluluk, öfke, üzüntü, damgalanma ve utanç gibi duygulara neden olarak cinsel ilgi-istek düzeyinde ve cinsel ilişki sıklığında azalmaya neden olabildiği belirlenmiştir. Bununla birlikte erkeklerde doğrudan prematür ejakülasyon ve erektil disfonksiyon gelişme riskini arttırabildiği ya da dolaylı olarak depresyon, anksiyete, damgalanma ve bulaştırma korkusu gibi duygulara neden olarak cinsel disfonksiyona neden olabildiği görülmüştür. Bu nedenle human papilloma virüsü ile enfekte bireylere bakım veren hemşireler, bireyleri psikolojik ve cinsel fonksiyon açısından değerlendirmeli ve buna yönelik önlemler almalıdır.
