ObjectivePeople with epilepsy experience increased rates of sexual dysfunction, often affecting quality of life. Sexual dysfunction may result from the underlying disorder, antiseizure or other medications, or comorbid psychosocial factors. This study evaluated the incidence and clinical associations of sexual dysfunction in adult epilepsy patients. Methods89 epilepsy patients 18 years and older admitted to the New York University Comprehensive Epilepsy Center epilepsy monitoring unit between 2016 and 2018 completed a survey on sexual functioning. The survey included demographic, clinical, and sexual functioning information with a validated measure of sexual function (the Arizona Sexual Experiences Scale (ASEX). ResultsOf 89 surveys completed, 15 (16.9 %) patients had discussed sexual functioning with a medical professional and 20 (22.5 %) reported sexual dysfunction. For the group, the mean ASEX score was 13.6 (SD 4.8). 59 (66.3 %) participants reported not being asked about sexual health by their doctor or nurse practitioner in the last year. The two independent predictors of sexual dysfunction were self-identifying as overweight/obese (OR 6.1, CI 1.4−26.5, P = 0.02) or taking strong enzyme-inducing antiseizure medications (OR 7.8, CI 1.4−44.9, P = 0.02). Other factors such as age, relationship status, duration of epilepsy, the presence of depression or anxiety, cardiovascular risk factors, and opioid/stimulant use, did not predict sexual dysfunction. SignificanceOur study showed that sexual dysfunction is common in epilepsy patients but infrequently discussed by medical professionals. Two modifiable risk factors, being overweight or taking strong enzyme-inducing antiseizure medications, were independently associated with sexual dysfunction, suggesting interventions to potentially improve sexual health.
