The neglect is more in women due to the associated stigma and taboo. Indian studies are scanty, varied and inconsistent, regarding the impact of DM on sexual functioning in women. We studied the patterns and predictors of sexual dysfunction in women with DM.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec id=\"st2\">\n<jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>We did a cross-sectional questionnaire-based study comprising 50 participants in both the study (women with DM1 and DM2) and control groups (relatives\/caregivers of patients and the hospital staff), selected randomly from the medicine outpatient department from May to August 2016. Approval from the institutional ethics committee was obtained. Clinical anxiety and depression were screened using the hospital anxiety and depression scale. Sexual dysfunction was assessed through female sexual function index scale (FSFI), and predictors were assessed by correlating FSFI scores with sociodemographic and clinical parameters.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec id=\"st3\">\n<jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>We found that 44% of women with DM had sexual dysfunction compared with 20% in the control group (p&lt;0.01). The pattern of sexual dysfunction was seen across the domains of desire, arousal, lubrication and orgasm. High body mass index, higher age, duration of DM, treatment with insulin and complications of DM predicted a greater degree of sexual dysfunction among women.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec id=\"st4\">\n<jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>Sexual dysfunction is common in women with DM, irrespective of the type of DM and coexisting psychological factors such as depression and anxiety.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.25259\/nmji_845_20","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,5]],"date-time":"2024-02-05T09:49:44Z","timestamp":1707126584000},"page":"157-162","update-policy":"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.25259\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Patterns and predictors of female sexual dysfunction in diabetes mellitus"],"prefix":"10.25259","volume":"36","author":[{"given":"ANKUR","family":"SACHDEVA","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychiatry, ESIC Medical College and Hospital, NH-3, NIT, Faridabad, Haryana, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"VIPIN","family":"KUMAR","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physiology, Shaheed Hassan Khan Mewati Government Medical College, Mewat, Haryana, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"SHILPA","family":"KHULLAR","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physiology, ESIC Medical College and Hospital, NIA, Desula, Alwar, Rajasthan, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"ANJALI","family":"SHARMA","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physiology, ESIC Medical College and Hospital, NH-3, NIT, Faridabad, Haryana, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"ASIM","family":"DAS","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physiology, ESIC Medical College and Hospital, NH-3, NIT, Faridabad, Haryana, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"10894","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"10.25259\/NMJI_845_20\/ref-1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"524","DOI":"10.21767\/AMJ.2013.1791","article-title":"India towards diabetes control: Key issues","volume":"6","author":"Kumar","year":"2013","journal-title":"Australas Med J"},{"key":"10.25259\/NMJI_845_20\/ref-2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1047","DOI":"10.2337\/diacare.27.10.2569-a","article-title":"Global prevalence of diabetes: Estimates for the year 2000 and projections for 2030","volume":"27","author":"Wild","year":"2004","journal-title":"Diabetes Care"},{"key":"10.25259\/NMJI_845_20\/ref-3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1","DOI":"10.18203\/issn.2454-2156.IntJSciRep20150194","article-title":"Diabetes in India: A long way to go","volume":"1","author":"Gupta","year":"2015","journal-title":"Int J Sci Rep"},{"key":"10.25259\/NMJI_845_20\/ref-4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"38","DOI":"10.3132\/dvdr.2009.07","article-title":"Evaluation of sexual function in women with type 2 diabetes mellitus","volume":"6","author":"Fatemi","year":"2009","journal-title":"Diab Vasc Dis Res"},{"key":"10.25259\/NMJI_845_20\/ref-5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1044","DOI":"10.1111\/jsm.12065","article-title":"Female sexual dysfunction and diabetes: A systematic review and meta-analysis","volume":"10","author":"Pontiroli","year":"2013","journal-title":"J Sex Med"},{"key":"10.25259\/NMJI_845_20\/ref-6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"196","DOI":"10.14310\/horm.2002.1309","article-title":"Sexual dysfunction in diabetic women","volume":"10","author":"Bargiota","year":"2011","journal-title":"Hormones (Athens)"},{"key":"10.25259\/NMJI_845_20\/ref-7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"524","DOI":"10.1093\/ije\/29.3.524","article-title":"on behalf of Gruppo Italiano Studio Deficit Erettile nei Diabetici.
