Özet:

 Our research sought to assess and compare the levels of vaginal symptoms and sexual function in women experiencing spontaneous menopause versus those undergoing surgical menopause. This study involved 57 women experiencing spontaneous menopause median age54 and 57 women undergoing surgical menopause median age51, all of whom sought routine check-ups at the gynecology clinic. We assessed the participants sexual dysfunction using the Female Sexual Function Index FSFI and evaluated their vaginal symptoms using the International Consultation on Incontinence-Vaginal Symptoms Questionnaire ICIQ-VS. The spontaneous menopause group exhibited a statistically significant higher average age compared to the surgical menopause group p0.05. Women with spontaneous menopause demonstrated higher values in FSFI-Sexual desire, FSFI-Lubrication, FSFI-Orgasm, and FSFI-Total than their counterparts with surgical menopause p0.05. Conversely, ICIQ-VS, ICIQ-S S: Sexuality, and ICIQ-LQ LQ: Life Quality values were lower in the spontaneous menopause group compared to the surgical menopause group p0.05. Women experiencing spontaneous menopause exhibited superior sexual function levels and fewer vaginal symptoms, potentially attributed to the decline in estrogen levels occurring in later stages of spontaneous menopause. Future studies, encompassing larger sample sizes and comprehensive evaluations of biochemical parameters, are warranted to further explore and substantiate these findings.

 Çalışmamızın amacı spontan ve cerrahi menopoza giren kadınları vajinal semptom ve cinsel fonksiyon düzeylerini karşılaştırmaktı. Kadın doğum polikliniğine rutin kontroller için başvuran spontan menopozlu n57, yaş ortancası54 ve cerrahi n57, yaş ortancası51 menopozlu kadın ile çalışma tamamlandı. Kadınların cinsel fonksiyon bozukluğu düzeyi Kadın Cinsel İşlev Ölçeği KCİÖ ile ve vajinal semptomları Uluslararası İnkontinans Konsültasyonu-Vajinal Semptomlar Ölçeği ICIQ-VS ile değerlendirildi. Spontan menopozlu grubun yaş ortalaması cerrahi menopozlu gruba göre daha yüksekti p0.05. Spontan menopozlu kadınların KCİÖ-Cinsel istek, KCİÖ-Lubrikasyon, KCİÖ-Orgazm ve KCİÖ-Toplam değerleri cerrahi menopoza sahip kadınlardan daha yüksekti p0.05. Spontan menopozlu kadınların ICIQ-VS, ICIQ-C Cinsellik ve ICIQ-YK YK: Yaşam Kalitesi değerleri cerrahi menopozlu gruba göre daha düşüktü p0.05. Spontan menopozlu kadınların cinsel fonksiyon düzeyleri daha iyiydi ve vajinal semptomları daha düşük seviyedeydi. Bu durum spontan menopozlu kadınların daha geç yaşlarda östrojen düzeylerinin düşmesinden kaynaklanmış olabilir. Daha büyük örneklemli ve biyokimyasal parametrelerin de değerlendirildiği çalışmalar planlanmalıdır.
