Science Discussions• 81.4% desired sex “sometimes,” “almost always,” or “always”; and • 90.9% enjoyed sexual activities at least some of the time. They found that the women’s sexuality and sexual function were not affected significantly by time or age, after being diagnosed with cervical cancer. They added, “Women with hysterectomies (with or without oophorectomy) less often reported lack of interest in … and lack of desire for … sexual activity than women who had not had hysterectomies. Among women with hysterectomies, those with oophorectomies had a greater risk … of not enjoying sex but did not differ otherwise from those without oophorectomies.” [Abstract] They concluded, “These findings suggest that cervical cancer survivors generally have a positive attitude toward sexuality and engage in satisfying sexual activity.” [Abstract] Dr. Greenwald stated in a September 8, 2008 article by Fox News, “Our findings, which demonstrate the existence of widespread interest and satisfaction with sex in the absence of a crucial hormone underscore the importance of non-hormonal components of sexual interest and satisfaction. That may mean the key to sexual satisfaction is less about biology and more about psychology.” [Fox News: “Study: Sexual Satisfaction More Mental Than Physical”] |
