Abstract

The female sexual response is influenced by many variables. Terman (1938) gave his attention to the importance of female orgasm for marital happiness. In another study he (Terman, 1951) investigated the correlates of orgasm adequacy in a group of 556 wives. Kinsey and his fellow workers (1953) showed, among other things, that in the last four decades there had been a distinct and steady increase in the number of females reaching orgasm in their marital coitus. The authors mentioned further ascertained the correlation between the length of marriage and the orgastic capacity. Gebhard (1966) states that there is a positive correlation between duration of precoital foreplay, duration of intromission and wife's orgasm rate. Masters and Johnson (1966) studied the female sexual response in the state of pregnancy. The aim of the present study is to ascertain whether the altered anatomical or functional state of female genitals in gynecological patients changes sexual desire and reactivity.
