  • Sexual Function and Associated Biopsychosocial Factors in a Hospital-Based Sample of Patients with Pituitary Adenomas Loraine Ledón Llanes Marta Margarita Durand Carbajal Daniel Cuevas Ramos Beatriz Torres Rodríguez Silvia Elena Turcios Tristá Cinthia Ivette Botello Mendoza Irazú Contreras Yáñez Fernando Larrea Psicología Gender sexual function pituitary adenomas sexual and reproductive health Pituitary adenomas (PA) can impair sexual function (SF). The study (cross-sectional and comparative) assessed the SF of patients with functional and nonfunctional PA and determined its relationship with biopsychosocial variables. 66 patients completed a semi- structured interview and self-administered questionnaires. The total SF mean score overcame the cut-off and 26 % of women and 38 % of men presented impaired SF. Hypogonadism, the perception of sexual discomfort, and anxiety in women, whereas the age in men, had a decreasing effect on the total SF score (p˂0.05). The studied patients with PA showed a moderate overall SF performance and sex-related vulnerabilities expressed in specific sexual domains. 2022 artículo científico 1794-9998 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=67980081009 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/679/67980081009/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/679/67980081009/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/679/67980081009/67980081009.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/679/67980081009/movil 10.15332/22563067.8201 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=679 Diversitas: Perspectivas en Psicología application/pdf Universidad Santo Tomás Diversitas: Perspectivas en Psicología (Colombia) Num.2 Vol.18
