The aim of this study was to compare depression and sexual dysfunctions observed in primary and secondary infertile patients.
The study was performed in 39 primary and 31 secondary infertile male patients. Male sexual health was evaluated using the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) score and depression with Beck Depression Inventory (BDI).
Mean age of the participants and their partners were 31.54 ± 5.37 (range, 24-48 yrs), and 28.16 ± 5.58 (range, 20- 46 yrs) years, respectively. Mean duration of their marriage ranged between 1 and 17 years (mean, 5.06 ± 4.15 yrs). A statistically significant intergroup difference was detected between groups as for BDI scores (p = 0.015; p < 0. 05). BDI scores of the primary group were significantly lower than those of the secondary group. A statistically and extremely significant difference was detected between IIEF scores of the groups (p = 0.006; p < 0.01). IIEF scores of the primary infertile group were higher than those of the secondary group.
Our study, frequency of the depression and erectile dysfunction seen in the patients with secondary infertility was seen significantly higher than the patients with primary infertility.
本研究旨在比较原发性和继发性不孕患者中观察到的抑郁和性功能障碍情况。
该研究对39名原发性不孕男性患者和31名继发性不孕男性患者进行。使用国际勃起功能指数（IIEF）评分评估男性性健康状况，并用贝克抑郁量表（BDI）评估抑郁情况。
参与者及其伴侣的平均年龄分别为31.54±5.37岁（范围24 - 48岁）和28.16±5.58岁（范围20 - 46岁）。他们的平均婚姻持续时间在1至17年之间（平均5.06±4.15年）。两组间BDI评分存在统计学显著差异（p = 0.015；p<0.05）。原发性组的BDI评分显著低于继发性组。两组间IIEF评分存在统计学及极显著差异（p = 0.006；p<0.01）。原发性不孕组的IIEF评分高于继发性组。
我们的研究表明，继发性不孕患者中抑郁和勃起功能障碍的发生率显著高于原发性不孕患者。
