Abstract

Introduction: Endometriosis is a chronic disease that affects women of reproductive age, whose classic presentations include chronic pelvic pain and infertility, which can significantly impair physical, mental and social well-being; causing psychological stress, low self-esteem and depression, which reduces the quality of life of these patients. Objective: To evaluate the effect of endometriosis on quality of life, correlating with sexual function and the occurrence of pain and depression symptoms in women affected by the disease. Methods: This is an observational, exploratory, hospital-based, case-control study involving women with and without endometriosis, developed at the Chronic Pelvic Pain (CPP) Clinic and Endometriosis at the Assis Chateaubriand Maternity School (ACMS). The data were collected using the Short Form Health Survey (SF-36), the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), the Beck inventory (BI) and pain questionnaire (McGill), as well as the standardized evaluation form of the CPP and endometriosis service, which includes the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Results: In the evaluation of the general quality of life using the SF-36, statistically significant differences were found in all 8 domains of the questionnaire, showing a worse quality of life in women with endometriosis. The worsening of the quality of life according to the SF-36 score presented a correlation directly proportional to lower scores of the sexual function questionnaire, higher scores of the depression questionnaire and the multidimensional pain scale. Conclusion: Women with endometriosis present a greater deterioration in QoL when compared to women without endometriosis. The impact of endometriosis on QoL is associated with increased sexual dysfunction, a greater degree of depression and a greater impact on some components related to pain. \n \nKey words: Endometriosis. Quality of life. Depression. Sexual function. Pain.

Objetivo: Avaliar o efeito da endometriose sobre a qualidade de vida, correlacionando com a função sexual e a ocorrência de sintomas álgicos e de depressão em mulheres acometidas pela doença. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo observacional, exploratório, de base hospitalar, do tipo caso-controle, envolvendo mulheres com e sem endometriose, desenvolvido no ambulatório de dor pélvica crônica (DPC) e endometriose da Maternidade Escola Assis Chateaubriand (MEAC). Foram utilizados como instrumentos de coleta de dados os questionários Short Form Health Survey (SF-36), Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), inventário de depressão de Beck (IDB) e de dor (Mc Gill), além da ficha de avaliação padronizada do serviço de DPC e endometriose, que inclui a Escala visual analógica (EVA). Resultados: Na avaliação da qualidade de vida geral, utilizando o SF-36, foi encontrado diferenças estatisticamente significativas em todos os 8 domínios do questionário, mostrando uma pior qualidade de vida nas mulheres com endometriose. A piora da qualidade de vida de acordo com a pontuação do SF-36 apresentou uma correlação diretamente proporcional a menores pontuações dos questionários de função sexual, maiores pontuações do questionário de depressão e da escala multidimensional de dor. Conclusão: Mulheres com endometriose apresentam uma maior deterioração na QV quando comparadas às mulheres sem endometriose. O impacto da endometriose na QV está associado a uma maior disfunção sexual, maior grau de depressão e a um maior impacto em alguns componentes relacionados a dor. | | Abstract: | Introduction: Endometriosis is a chronic disease that affects women of reproductive age, whose classic presentations include chronic pelvic pain and infertility, which can significantly impair physical, mental and social well-being; causing psychological stress, low self-esteem and depression, which reduces the quality of life of these patients.
