Öz

Amaç: COVID-19 (Coronavirus disease- 2019) pandemisi kadınların psikolojik sağlıklarının yanı sıra cinsel fonksiyonlarını da olumsuz etkilemektedir. Çalışmanın amacı, COVID-19 pandemisi sırasında evli Türk kadınlarında çift uyumu, yaşam doyumu, depresyon ve kadın cinsel işlev bozukluğunu (CİB) değerlendirmektir. Yöntem: Bu tanımlayıcı bir çalışmadır. Veriler, Yenilenmiş Çift Uyum Ölçeği (YÇUÖ), Yaşam Doyumu Ölçeği (YDÖ), Epidemiyolojik Araştırmalar Merkezi Depresyon Ölçeği (EAMDÖ), Kadın Cinsel Fonskiyon Ölçeği (KCFÖ) ile 29 Mayıs 2020 - 22 Haziran 2020 tarihleri arasında 210 evli kadından çevrimiçi anket formu ile toplanmıştır. Bulgular: Kadınların ortalama YÇUÖ ve YDÖ puanları sırasıyla 50.55 ± 9.68 ve 16.51 ± 4.96 idi. Kadınların %63.3'ünde 'depresyon', %88.1'inde cinsel işev bozukluğu vardı. Çalışmada kadın cinsel kadın cinsel disfonksiyonu varlığı ile YÇUÖ (p < 0.001) ve SYDÖ (p < 0.001) arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark vardı. Kadın cinsel disfonksiyonu varlığı ile depresyon arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark yoktu (p = 0.078). Sonuç: Bu çalışma sağlık profesyonellerinin (özellikle kadın sağlığı hemşireleri, psikiyatri hemşireleri, cinsel ve aile terapistleri) COVID-19 döneminde evli kadınlarda cinsel kadın cinsel disfonksiyonu varlığını, çift uyumunu, yaşam doyumunu ve depresyon düzeylerini değerlendirmelerini ve farkında olmalarını sağlayacaktır.

Öz

Aim: The COVID-19 (Coronavirus disease- 2019) pandemic negatively affects the sexual functions of women as well as their psychological health. The purpose of the study was to evaluate dyadic adjustment, life satisfaction, depression, and female sexual dysfunction (FSD) in married Turkish women during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: This is a descriptive study. Data were collected online between May 29th, 2020 and June 22th, 2020 with the Revised Dyadic Adjustment Scale (RDAS), Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS), Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D), Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), and questionnaire form from 210 married women. Results: The average RDAS and SWLS scores of the women were 50.55 ± 9.68 and 16.51 ± 4.96, respectively. While 63.3% of the women had 'depression', there was FSD in 88.1%. In the study, there was a statistically significant difference between FSD presence and RDAS (p < 0.001) and SWLS (p < 0.001). There was no statistically significant difference between the presence of FSD and depression (p = 0.078). Conclusion: This study will enable health professionals (especially female health nurses, psychiatric nurses, and sexual and family therapists) to evaluate and be aware of the presence of FSD, and dyadic adjustment, life satisfaction, and depression levels in married women during the COVID-19 pandemic.
