Abstract
Background: Sexual intercourse is one of the important components of well-being, especially in married couples. There is a dearth of baseline research and data regarding the sexual habits of residents in South-East Asia. Objective: We aimed to see the baseline frequency of sexual intercourses among the residents of 3 South Asian countries (Bangladesh, India, and Nepal). Methods: This web-based cross-national, cross-sectional study was done among the residents of Bangladesh, India, and Nepal through Google forms. Married individuals who were living with their spouses were invited to respond to the survey. Results: A total of 120 respondents participated in this survey of which 46.7%, 38.3%, and 15% of respondents were from India, Nepal, and Bangladesh, respectively. The mean of the weekly sexual intercourse was 2.23 (range: 0-8) among the total respondents; 2.70 (range: 0-7) among the Nepalese, 2.32 (range: 0-5) among the Bangladeshis, and 1.82 (range: 0-8) among the Indians. The differences were not statistically significant. Conclusion: This study revealed very baseline and preliminary excerpts of sexual intercourse habit among the residents of 3 South Asian countries. There is a geographical variation in regard to the sexual contacts. Further, large-scale well-designed studies are warranted to explore the behavior.
