摘要
Background: There is a growing body of literature on the association between psychosis and sexual dysfunction. However, most studies have focused on sexual dysfunction and have not investigated the sexual lives of patients with psychosis across a broader range. Material and Methods: Consecutive patients with a diagnosis of acute psychosis or schizophrenia were recruited to the study after obtaining informed consent (n = 46). In addition, healthy control subjects were recruited (n = 52). Sociodemographic and clinical data, psychopathology, and sexual functioning were assessed. Independent sample t-test to determine group differences was obtained. Results: In both the male and female groups, there are significant differences between psychotic individuals and healthy controls in several areas of their sexual functioning: the control group seemed to better perceive Couple sexuality, Self-eroticism, and overall appeared to have a higher Quality of sexual life; on the other hand, the group of patients with psychosis displayed higher scores in Sexual dysfunction. Conclusions: A poor sexual quality of life may be found in patients with psychotic disorders. Assessment of sexual function in these patients is necessary to identify and manage issues and provide support and help to patients in this important area of life.
