Aim: The uterus is widely accepted as a sexual organ, children-making body, secretory organ, youth, charm, or power supply by women. By hysterectomy, psychosocial problems such as fear of losing sexual identity occur, and depression may arise as a result of this. In this study, we investigated the effects of surgery on female sexual function and psychosocial situation according to the methods of Total Abdominal Hysterectomy (TAH) and Single Port Laparoscopic Hysterectomy (SPLH).
Material and Method: This prospective surgical study included 60 patients, including 30 SPLH and 30 TAH patients with benign reasons. The demographic data of patients, Female Sexual Function Inventory (FSFI) score, Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) score, and Patient Satisfaction Scale (PSS) score results were all assessed according to TAH and SPLH methods.
Results: In the FSFI questionnaire, significant differences were found between SPLH and TAH groups for all "desire frequency," "desire level," "stimulation frequency," "stimulation level," and "stimulation trust" subquestions (p=0.004, p=0.0001, p=0.003, p=0.011 and p=0.011, respectively). In the BDI, the TAH score (4.4±3.25) was significantly higher than the SPLH score (2.77±2.97) (p=0.047). TAH had 7.97±3.6 points, and SPLH had 3.73±1.1 points regarding treatment results (p=0.00017). Similarly, TAH had 14±4.4 points, while SPLH had 6.1±1.3 points regarding the functionality of hysterectomy (p<0.0001).
Conclusion: FSFI's results for SPLH were more effective than TAH's, as it was a more effective method for all the treatment processes, functionality, and treatment scores. SPLH instead of TAH will be powerfully influential in eliminating the postoperative negative impacts of hysterectomy.
