Abstract

sexual activity, or ability to achieve orgasm in women. Masturbation and urinary leakage with sexual activity were not associated with ambulatory status in men or women.CONCLUSIONS: In young men with spina bifida, ambulatory status was associated with positive responses regarding penile sensation, orgasm, ejaculation, and sexual activity. However, ambulatory status was not associated with reporting better sexual function in young women with spina bifida. These results can be used to facilitate discussion about sexual health with young adult spina bifida patients.
