Abstract

Objective. To estimate the prevalence of pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) symptoms in reproductive-aged women and their association with childbirth. Subjects and methods. A total of 1637 women aged 18 to 45years (mean age, 30.8±5.7years) underwent an anonymous survey using the Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory-20 (PFDI-20) and FSFI (Female Sexual Function Index) questionnaires. Results. The symptoms of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) were recorded in 46.6% of the respondents; there were colo-recto-anal, urinary, and sexual disorders in 43.3, 49.7, and 80.7%, respectively. A relationship was found between PFD symptoms and childbirth: POP (χ2 = 92.96, p = 0.0001), colo-recto-anal (χ2 = 132.22, p = 0.0001), and urinary (χ2 =123.68, p = 0.0001) disorders. There was no relationship of sexual disorders to the number of births in the history (χ2 = 0.1005, p = 0.751). Conclusion. The investigation established the high prevalence of PFD symptoms in reproductive-aged women and its association with childbirth, which requires the development of a package of measures for the prevention of these disorders in women in the postpartum period.
