The purpose of this study was to identify the prevalence and related factors of female sexual dysfunction(FSD). Five hundred fourteen women aged more than 20 years and who lived in five major cities in Korea completed an organized questionnaire during study visits. Age, marital period, education, menstruation, marital status, type of contraception, perceived health state, presence of disease, sexual distress, sexual attitude, marital adjustment, and crisis had direct influence on FSD. In addition, sexual distress, sexual attitude, marital adjustment, and crisis were found to be significant risk factors of FSD. Sexual function was higher in women with good subjective health status, positive sexual attitude, and good marital adjustment and those without sexual distress, depression, crisis, and stressful life event. This study results indicate that FSD may be influenced by both health-related and psychosocial factors. While the causal relationship between sexual dysfunction and quality of life concomitants remains to be further investigated, the strong associations between the variables observed in this study suggest that sexual dysfunction is a largely uninvestigated yet significant public health problem. Future studies that develop comprehensive nursing interventions reflecting various predictors of FSD and effective educational programs considering features of Korean society are needed to decrease and prevent sexual dysfunction in Korean women.
