Abstract
There is a paucity of research on psychosexual outcomes after neo-vaginoplasty in women with Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome. We compared anatomical and psychosexual outcomes between women with MRKH syndrome who had undergone vaginoplasty and age-matched, sexually active, childless women. Outcomes were assessed using the female sexual function index (FSFI), World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS 2.0), General Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) and Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) tools. Although mean vaginal length was shorter in women with MRKH syndrome than controls (8.6 ± 1.8 cm vs 9.3 ± 2.6 cm), FSFI scores were comparable in both groups (27.8 ± 1.4 vs. 27.3 ± 4.1). Women with MRKH syndrome reported fewer depressive symptoms, and WHODAS 2.0 scores were comparable in both groups (8.9 ± 2.4 vs. 7.8 ± 6.7). Therefore, psychosexual outcomes for women who had undergone neo-vaginoplasty for MRKH syndrome were not different from those of the general population.
