Prevalence of female sexual dysfunction among women attending college presenting for gynecological care at a university student health center.

OBJECTIVE: To estimate the prevalence of female sexual dysfunction (FSD) among women attending college (18-29 years of age) presenting for routine gynecological care at a university-based student health center.

PARTICIPANTS: Location: University affiliated women's health care clinic.

METHODS: Study design: Descriptive, cross sectional study. Primary endpoint: Estimated prevalence of FSD in the 18-29-year- old population. A subanalysis between those with and without recent sexual activity was performed. Logistic Regression was performed to identify potential predictors of FSD among those affected.

RESULTS: Of 310 women, FSFI was estimated as ranging from 35.5% (not sexually active) to 42.3% (sexually active). Those of younger age (18-21), with prior mental health diagnosis, and self-reported problems with arousal were at increased risk for FSD.

CONCLUSION: Screening for FSD in the 18-29-year-old population is justified and recommended.
