dc.description.abstractThe aim of this study is to determine the association of the risk of postpartum sexual dysfunction (SD) with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and depression symptoms. This cross-sectional study was conducted by collecting data from eight different family health centers (n = 147). Data were collected with 'Descriptive Information Form', 'City Birth Trauma Scale (CityBiTS)', 'Edinburg Postpartum Depression Scale (EPDS)' and 'Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI)'. Data were evaluated with Chi-square test, Fisher's exact test, Student's t-test, Spearman's correlation and logistic regression analysis. The risk of SD in women between 6 and 12 months postpartum was 53.1%, and the risk of depression was 19%. Based on self-report data, 16.3% of women met all Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) criteria for PTSD in relation to birth-specific events. There was a negative correlation between the FSFI and the CityBiTS (r=-0.208) and EPDS total scores (r=-0.335). It was found that CityBiTS scores were not a significant factor affecting the risk of SD (p > 0.05), but an increase in EDPS scores increased the likelihood of SD (OR:1.22, p < 0.05). Half of the women are at risk of SD in the first postpartum year. As postpartum depression and PTSD symptoms increase, sexual function decreases.
