Dalia DorghamHisham M HaggagDoaa Hassan Sayed AttiaPublished in: Lupus (2020)
No significant difference was found in the prevalence of sexual dysfunction between SLE patients and controls. Sexual dysfunction in SLE patients is mostly related to depression, poor functional status, increased pain, poor health perception and bad quality of life. Neither disease activity nor damage contributes significantly to sexual dysfunction in lupus females.
