Chronic hip pain significantly impacts sexual activity, especially in younger patients. Total hip replacement (THA) often improves sexual function, but medical professionals should address these issues proactively.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Sexual Medicine
  • Rehabilitation

Background:

  • Chronic hip pain affects patient quality of life, including sexual activity.
  • Younger patients with hip pain experience significant sexual difficulties.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the impact of chronic hip pain and total hip replacement (THA) on sexual activity.
  • To identify factors influencing sexual difficulties and outcomes after THA.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective study of 135 patients under 65 who underwent primary total hip replacement (THA).
  • Questionnaire assessing sexual activity, pain, stiffness, and relationship impact pre- and post-THA.

Main Results:

  • Sexual difficulties began a mean of 2.5 years after hip pain onset, at age 45.

  • Pain and stiffness were primary causes; young women with hip anomalies were most affected.
  • Total hip replacement (THA) improved sexual relations for most patients, with increased frequency noted, particularly in women.

    • Conclusions:

    • Medical staff, especially surgeons, must address sexual difficulties related to hip pain and THA.
    • Information on sexual activity post-THA should be provided during pre- and postoperative assessments.
    • Integrating sexual health into hip pain management improves patient care and outcomes.
