Human papillomavirus is the most common sexually transmitted infection, usually passing from one person to another after the first sexual activity. Infection with this virus and the occurrence of genital warts (GWs) could have several effects on patients' health. This study was performed to evaluate the sexual function and sexual quality of life (SQOL) in men with GWs.
This cross-sectional study was conducted from September 2019 to March 2020 with a sample size of 105 men with GWs in the dermatology clinic of Shahid Faghihi Hospital in Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Iran. Data were collected using a demographic questionnaire, the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF), and the Sexual Quality of Life-Men (SQOL-M) questionnaires and analyzed by descriptive and inferential tests with SPSS software version 22.
The mean score for overall sexual function in men was 48.50 ± 8.89. About 35.2% of men had overall sexual dysfunction (SD). The highest disorder rate was related to the erection domain (85.7%), and the lowest was related to the desire domain (5.7%). In the erection domain, most men (54.3%) experienced mild to moderate erectile dysfunction. The mean score for SQOL-M was 38.36 ± 14.47, and 56.2% of them had a good SQOL.
GWs affected men's erection more than the other sexual function domains. SD in men with GWs has a significant impact on their SQOL and ED was associated with impaired SQOL. Therefore, it is recommended to pay more attention to SD screening alongside SQOL assessment of men with GW.
人乳头瘤病毒是最常见的性传播感染，通常在首次性行为后从一个人传播到另一个人。感染这种病毒和发生生殖器疣（GWs）可能会对患者的健康产生多种影响。本研究旨在评估患有 GWs 的男性的性功能和性健康生活质量（SQOL）。
本横断面研究于 2019 年 9 月至 2020 年 3 月在伊朗 Shiraz 大学医学院 Shahid Faghihi 医院皮肤科诊所进行，样本量为 105 名患有 GWs 的男性。使用人口统计学问卷、国际勃起功能指数（IIEF）和性健康生活质量-男性（SQOL-M）问卷收集数据，并使用 SPSS 软件版本 22 进行描述性和推断性检验进行分析。
男性整体性功能的平均得分为 48.50±8.89。约 35.2%的男性存在整体性功能障碍（SD）。障碍程度最高的与勃起域有关（85.7%），最低的与欲望域有关（5.7%）。在勃起域中，大多数男性（54.3%）经历了轻度至中度勃起功能障碍。SQOL-M 的平均得分为 38.36±14.47，其中 56.2%的人具有良好的 SQOL。
GWs 对男性的勃起功能影响大于其他性功能域。GWs 男性的 SD 对他们的 SQOL 有显著影响，ED 与 SQOL 受损有关。因此，建议在评估 GWs 男性的 SQOL 时，除了关注 SD 筛查外，还应更加关注。
