The climacteric is a stage when different changes in the female genitourinary system (such as a lack of lubrication or vaginal dryness, or genital atrophy) appear. These changes may cause inconvenience and difficulties in sexual relationships of women, and as a result, deteriorate their sexual life and the quality of life as a couple. The present work shows the results of a group cognitive behavioural intervention program for the improvement of sexual response and quality of life in the couple in a sample of climacteric women. Women in the experimental group improved their sexual response after the intervention (increased arousal, lubrication and overall sexual response) as in follow-up (increase of desire, arousal, lubrication, satisfaction and overall sexual response and decrease of pain). They also improved their quality of life in the couple and their quality of life in general. These changes are compared to a baseline period and to the control group.
El climaterio es una etapa vital en la que aparecen diversos cambios en el aparato genital femenino (como la falta de lubricación o sequedad vaginal y la atrofia genital) que pueden ocasionar molestias y dificultades en las relaciones sexuales de las mujeres, y deteriorar su vida sexual y la calidad de vida en pareja. Este trabajo muestra los resultados de un programa grupal de intervención cognitivo conductual para la mejora de la respuesta sexual y la calidad de vida en pareja en un grupo de mujeres climatéricas. Las mujeres del grupo experimental mejoraron su respuesta sexual tras la intervención (aumento excitación, lubricación y respuesta sexual global) y en el seguimiento (aumento del deseo, excitación, lubricación, satisfacción y respuesta sexual global y disminución del dolor). También mejoraba su calidad de vida en pareja y su calidad vida general. Estos cambios se comparan respecto al periodo de línea base y respecto al grupo control.
