Resilience can be defined as the capacity to overcome stressful situations, such as menopausal transition. Female sexual dysfunction is a problem that prevents women from experiencing satisfaction from sexual activity. In this study, we assessed resilience, sexual function, and quality of life among a sample of mid-aged Spanish menopausal women.
This cross-sectional study was performed in 101 symptomatic menopausal women. Participants filled out the 14-item Wagnild and Young Resilience Scale, the 19-item Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), the 16-item Cervantes-SF form, and a sociodemographic questionnaire.
Resilience scores were significantly higher among women with high sexual function scores (FSFI > 26), with a 14-item Wagnild and Young Resilience Scale total valuation of 86 [80-94] versus 74 [66-79.50] (P<0.001). Sexual function was significantly worse in the low resilience subgroup of participants, with an FSFI total score of 18.90 [14.10-24] versus 29.40 [24.60-33] in the mid-high resilience one (P<0.001). Menopauserelated quality of life was significantly worse among low resilient women, with a Cervantes-SF total score of 42.50 [34.17-56.70] versus 30.80 [20.80-44.90] in the mid-high resilience one (P = 0.004).
In our sample, resilience was related to sexual health. Higher resilience scores seem to be linked to a better quality of life during the menopausal transition.
韧性可以定义为克服压力情境的能力，例如更年期过渡。女性性功能障碍是一种阻止女性从性活动中获得满足感的问题。在这项研究中，我们评估了中年西班牙更年期女性样本中的韧性、性功能和生活质量。
这是一项横断面研究，共纳入 101 例有症状的更年期女性。参与者填写了 14 项 Wagnild 和 Young 韧性量表、19 项女性性功能指数（FSFI）、16 项 Cervantes-SF 表和一份社会人口学问卷。
FSFI 评分较高（>26）的女性韧性评分显著较高，Wagnild 和 Young 韧性量表总评分为 86 [80-94]，而评分较低的女性总评分为 74 [66-79.50]（P<0.001）。低韧性亚组的性功能显著较差，FSFI 总分为 18.90 [14.10-24]，而中高韧性亚组的总分为 29.40 [24.60-33]（P<0.001）。低韧性女性与绝经相关的生活质量显著较差，Cervantes-SF 总分为 42.50 [34.17-56.70]，而中高韧性女性的总分为 30.80 [20.80-44.90]（P = 0.004）。
在我们的样本中，韧性与性健康有关。较高的韧性评分似乎与更年期过渡期间更好的生活质量相关。
