Abstract

Objective: Identificar la prevalencia de disfunción sexual en mujeres embarazadas en una ciudad de Pará. Methods: This is a cross-sectional and quantitative research, carried out with twenty pregnant women in a municipality in Pará, using a form on an online platform. Results: Twenty questionnaires were evaluated, where among the twenty volunteers 25% of them were between 18 and 22 years old, 20% were 23 to 27 years old, 25% from 28 to 32 years and 30% over 32 years. The results of the research showed a considerable prevalence of sexual dysfunction in pregnant women, and there was a tendency to increase symptoms with the evolution of pregnancy. The most affected domains of the questionnaire were pain, arousal, lubrication, and satisfaction, orgasm, followed by desire. Conclusion: The most affected domains of the questionnaire were pain, arousal, lubrication, satisfaction, orgasm, followed by desire. Thus, the performance of physical therapy is essential for women with sexual dysfunction, since there are studies that prove that physical therapy interventions applied to women with sexual dysfunction were effective for the treatment.
