Abstract:
:Research has shown that infertility and its medical investigation are stressful for couples and have adverse effects on sexual functioning. The purpose of this study was to examine how female sexual functioning could influence aspects of the reproductive process. This question was examined within the context of the postcoital test (PCT) routinely performed during the infertility investigation. The sample consisted of 85 women with a mean age of 30 years (SD = 3.8 years) and a mean infertile period of 2.5 years (SD = 1.1 years). Prior to the physiological examination, women completed a battery of questionnaires about their sexual functioning during the scheduled encounter engaged in for purposes of the PCT and during other nonscheduled encounters. The results indicated that the PCT contributed to deterioration in female sexual functioning, and in turn, a poor sexual response was associated with poorer physiological results. The implications of sexual behavior influencing physiohormonal reproductive factors are discussed.
