“…NSAIDs are considered as a rst-line drug in the treatment of ax-SpA. The use of NSAIDs to ameliorate disease activity, including pain, stiffness, fatigue, and di culties sleeping [52], may lead to physical di culties when having sex [53,54]. Sexual activity is considered a part of a good SQOL and is in uenced by personal characteristics, relationships with a partner and family, socio-cultural conditions, and one's own physical and mental health [51].…”

Background Axial spondyloarthritis (ax-SpA) causes pain, fatigue, stiffness, loss of physical function, and poor health status, which can influence sexual activity and enjoyment. Aims To explore whether patients with ax-SpA perceive that their health status affects their sexual activity and to identify predictors of these perceived effects on sexual activity after a 5-year follow-up. Methods Data about demographics, disease, medication, health-related quality of life (HRQOL), and sexual quality of life (SQOL) were collected at the baseline and 5-year follow-up. The perceived effect of health status on sexual activity was measured by question 15 in the 15D questionnaire. Data were analysed using the McNemar and independent paired t tests and logistic regression. Results In the 244 patients with ax-SpA (30% women, 70% men; mean age, 46 years), measures reflecting disease activity decreased and comorbidities increased, and more patients were treated with biological drugs at 5 years. Compared with patients whose health status had little/no effect on sexual activity, those who perceived that their health status had a large effect on sexual activity were older, exercised less, fewer were employed, had more comorbidities, higher disease activity, and lower HRQOL and SQOL. The baseline predictors of a negative effect of health status on sexual activity were old age and low SQOL. Conclusion Patients reporting that their health status had a large effect on sexual activity at 5 years were older and had a less healthy lifestyle, more disease activity, and lower HRQOL and SQOL.

Background Sexual activity is an important component of quality of life. To date, no studies have examined the impact of stem design on return to sexual activity (RTS) and quality of sex life after total hip arthroplasty (THA). Methods A questionnaire was designed to assess preoperative and postoperative sexual habits, joint awareness and physical activity in working-age patients undergoing short-stem (n = 176) or straight-stem (n = 97) THA. Results No differences were noted in time until RTS based on the stem design (short stems vs. straight stems; 6 [IQR: 4–10] vs. 6 [4–10] weeks; p = 0.996). Multivariate analysis revealed that higher patient BMI (p = 0.04), female gender (p < 0.001) and lower FJS-12 (p = 0.006) were significantly associated with delayed RTS. Improved hip mobility and reduced pain mainly contribute to improved quality of sexual activity postoperatively. Conclusion This study, hence, indicates that stem design has no impact on time until resumption of sexual activity in patients < 65 years. Female obese individuals who are aware of their artificial joint in daily life are at increased risk of delayed RTS after surgery. Level of evidence Level III, retrospective cohort study.

Changes in sexual activity of male patients with ankylosing spondylitis undergoing total hip arthroplasty

Abstract: Successful THA may improve sexual activity in male AS patients with hip involvement. Changes in hip ROM show the most significant correlation with improvement in sexual activity. Resumption of sexual activity occurs within 5-12 postoperative weeks.
