The association between sexual dysfunction and metabolic syndrome among Turkish postmenopausal women.

CONCLUSION: In our study population, the rate of sexual dysfunction increased in postmenopausal women in contrast to premenopausal women. The MS status did not make a difference in terms of sexual dysfunction either in premenopausal or postmenopausal women. Since our survey was conducted in a tertiary medical center which gave medical care service to women from middle and low socioeconomic classes, our results should be confirmed by a large multicenter survey enrolling women from all different socioeconomic classes.
