Summary

Introduction

Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is a common problem nowadays, gradually increasing in the current economic and social life because of the increasing age of women. About 11% have to undergo surgery for treatment of POP. Sexual dysfunction negatively affects the family atmosphere, productivity, as well as other relationships and above all affects the treatment process, treatment effectiveness, and as a result difficulties in treatment. Many studies have noted that sexual dysfunction affects overall woman’s quality of life, so it is important to consider related factors to help them improve their quality of life.
