The number of vaginal rejuvenation procedures for improvement of sexual function is dramatically increasing worldwide. The objective of this study was to present our experience with women who presented to our clinic with the complaint of sexual dysfunction or desire to enhance sexual function or orgasm. MethodsDemographic and descriptive data of the patients were evaluated. In addition, sexual dysfunction of the patients who underwent vaginoplasty in our center were evaluated before and after vaginoplasty procedure using Golombok Rust Inventory of Sexual Satisfaction (GRISS) scale and the scores were compared before and after the procedure, which is used in the evaluation of sexual dysfunction by relationship counsellors and clinics. ResultsA total of 250 women who described a sensation of a wide or floppy vagina with lost or decreased ability to achieve orgasm were included in the study. The mean age of the patients was 38.51±9.126 years. Of all women, 85.2% were college graduates. A history of normal vaginal delivery was found in 77.8% of the participants. The mean GRISS scores of "Infrequency", "Non-communication", "Dissatisfaction", "Nonsensuality", "Avoidance", "Anorgasmia" and "overall GRISS" scores were statistically significantly decreased, while the mean vaginismus score was significantly increased (p<0.01). ConclusionHighly satisfying outcomes regarding patient satisfaction were obtained from vaginoplasty procedures that we have performed.
