Abstract(s)

In Portugal, the estimated prevalence of Diabetes Mellitus (DM) in women is 10.9%, with type 2 DM (T2D) accounting for 90% of the cases. The reported prevalence of female sexual dysfunction (FSD) in women with DM varies between 25-71% worldwide, but the genesis of the disease is still poorly understood. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of Female Sexual Dysfunction (FSD) in Portuguese women with T2D, to evaluate the impact of T2D in various domains of sexuality and to assess the influence of biopsychosocial characteristics on female sexual function and satisfaction.
