Abstract
Background: Access to high education changes the student's routine, making them face situations that can trigger anxiety and thus affect sexual function. Aims: To analyze the prevalence of sexual dysfunctions and the correlation with the level of anxiety in university students and verify whether there are differences in sexual function in different undergraduate courses. Method: The sample consisted of 439 university students between 18 and 30 years old, collection was carried out using the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory Assessment (STAI) questionnaires, made available online and accessed via a link disseminated on social media. Results: The analysis was descriptive and cross-sectional, using mean and standard deviation studies of the FSFI and STAI score values. Of the 439 volunteers, 226 met the inclusion criteria, with 39.8% having sexual dysfunction and, of these, 47.2% having a high level of anxiety. Conclusion: Sexual dysfunction is prevalent among university women, associated with a high level of anxiety.
