“…In addition, it has been reported that the impact of a happy and fulfilling sexual relationship on the lives of both partners is a factor that has been shown to have a significant effect on other areas of their lives 24 , as the results of the Sexual Health and Overall Wellness Survey (SHOW) recently pointed out 25 . This survey indicates that higher levels of satisfaction with sex are strongly associated with higher levels of satisfaction with other important aspects of life and overall physical health, family life, and economic well-being in men and women.…”

2015

The objective was to describe the sexual life satisfaction of couples in the climacteric stage and determine whether there are differences between the perception of satisfaction and the sex life of each partner. We studied 142 couples obtained by stratified sampling of family health centers, Concepción, Chile. 66% of women and 84% of men reported being very or somewhat satisfied with their sex lives. Slight concordance was found between the responses of the partners in relation to satisfaction with their sexual life. Moreover, a slight degree of agreement was found between the sexual life satisfaction reported by women and their partners' perceptions of the women's sexual life satisfaction. Additionally, a slight degree of agreement was reported between the sexual life satisfaction reported by men and their partners' perceptions of the men's sexual life satisfaction. This study provides new information about Chilean couples in the climacteric stage in relation to self-reported sexual satisfaction and perceived satisfaction in couples.

“…The Global Better Sex Survey (GBSS) reports the sexual needs and desires of men and women worldwide (Mulhal et al, 2008). For both, satisfaction with different aspects of sex is important and strongly associated with satisfaction of general health, relationships and other aspects of wellbeing (Dean et al, 2013). Thus, sexual dysfunction or sexual disorder is a serious medical condition that affects both men and women and can be caused by physiological or psychological factors (Ajao et al, 2019).…”

Sexual dysfunction or sexual disorder is a serious medical condition that affects both men and women. It has a strong impact on the patient's life quality and can threaten the stability of the couple's relationship. However, side effects of synthetic molecules, poverty and illiteracy give a new impetus to natural products, such as traditional herbs, that produce aphrodisiac effects for sexual enhancement. This study was carried out to document medicinal plants and recipes used against sexual dysfunctions in Benin. Data were collected using ethnobotanical and market surveys from 272 informants followed by observations. A total of 148 aphrodisiac plant species belonging to 133 genera from 64 plant families were recorded. Aphrodisiac plant species were mainly herbs (31.08%) and tree (27.70%) mostly represented by Fabaceae (13.51%). 64 of them have previously been evaluated scientifically while 37 aphrodisiac plants were reported for the first time. 33 plant species were the most commonly used. Aphrodisiac plant parts root (31.92%) and leaves (20.19%) were mostly used for 324 recipes to treat seven (7) ailments of which the common was sexual weakness (86.40%). The maceration (38.72%), powder (29.79%) and oral route (92.92%) were the main galenic forms and the main mode of administration, respectively. The findings will serve as a reference for the selection of plants for further pharmacological, toxicological, and phytochemical investigations in developing new plant-based drugs used for the treatment of sexual dysfunctions.

“…Information on sexual behaviors is largely collected through self-reported knowledge, attitude, and practice surveys, for example, sexual behavior surveys in Thailand, Kenya, the United States, European countries, and Middle Eastern countries [ 8 - 11 ]. However, it is well recognized that the quality of self-reported data can be undermined in research about socially stigmatized behaviors [ 12 - 15 ].…”

Background Reliable data about sexual behaviors is fundamental in the prevention and control of HIV, hepatitis, and other sexually transmitted infections. Generally, sexual behaviors are regarded as a sociocultural taboo in Africa and Asia, and this results in biased sexual behavior survey data due to social desirability. Various modes of survey delivery, including audio computer-assisted self-interviews (ACASIs), have been investigated to improve data quality. Objective This study aimed to review studies that compared the ACASI mode to other survey modes in sexual behavior surveys in Asia and sub-Saharan Africa to ascertain the impact of survey mode on responses to sexual behavior questions. Methods A systematic literature review was conducted according to the Joanna Briggs Institute Manual for Evidence Synthesis. The review protocol was registered at PROSPERO (International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews). Six databases were searched. Results A total of 21 papers were included. The face-to-face interview (FTFI) mode was the survey mode most frequently compared to the ACASI mode. Among the most commonly reported outcome variable groups, ACASI participants were more likely to report sexual behaviors, such as “forced sex,” “multiple partners,” “transactional sex,” and “ever had sex,” as compared to FTFI participants. In addition to the survey mode effect, other factors were found to have had an impact on data quality, for example, participant characteristics, social norms, study design, and data collection setting. Conclusions Use of ACASIs for administering sexual behavior surveys among populations in Asia and sub-Saharan Africa demonstrated higher reports for some sexual behaviors than the use of FTFIs. More studies that compare the ACASI mode to other survey modes would improve our understanding of the usefulness of ACASIs in sexual behavior surveys in these regions.
