Introduction: Candida vaginitis is a common disease in women which is accompanied by annoying symptoms in the genital area. Therefore, the present study was conducted with the aim of investigating the level of sexual satisfaction and its related factors in women with and without candida vaginitis.
Materials and Methods: This research is a cross-sectional study. In this study, 180 women referring to women's specialist clinic, Ayatollah Kashani Hospital, Jiroft city, were selected by convenience sampling method and divided into two groups of 90 patients (cases) and non-patients (controls). Data were collected using Larson's sexual satisfaction questionnaire. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 19 software and descriptive and inferential statistical tests.
Results: The average score of sexual satisfaction in the group of affected women was 71.87 ±7.82 and in the group of non-affected women it was 77.30 ±7.29. The amount of sexual satisfaction in the control group is more than the case group, which is a statistically significant difference (p<0.05). It was also found that women with higher socio-economic status and education have more sexual satisfaction (p<0.05).
Conclusion: According to the significant difference in sexual satisfaction in the group of infected and non-infected women, it can be concluded that candida infection is another variable influencing the level of women's satisfaction in sex, As a result, paying attention to this variableis recommended in examining women with complaints of decreased sexual satisfaction.
