Our study demonstrated age-specific PISQ-12 reference scores and highlighted associations between aging and diminishing scores of sexual desire, sexual excitement, erection problems, and orgasm perception, while women aged 18 to 34 years reported the lowest scores for pain during intercourse and limited sexual activity due to fear of urinary leakage.
