This study differentiates between dyspareunia and algopareunia in women with pelvic inflammatory disease. Dyspareunia involves pain during intercourse and dissatisfaction, while algopareunia is characterized by pain but overall sexual satisfaction.

Area of Science:

Sexology
Gynecology
Urology

Context:

Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) affects numerous married women.
Sexual health is a crucial component of overall well-being in women with PID.

Purpose:

To propose distinct terminology for sexual pain experienced by women with PID.
To differentiate between pain during intercourse coupled with dissatisfaction versus pain with overall satisfaction.

Summary:

A sexuological examination of 152 married women with PID was conducted.
The term dyspareunia is proposed for patients experiencing pain during coitus and dissatisfaction with sexual intercourse.
The term algopareunia is suggested for women with unpleasant or painful feelings during coitus who report satisfaction with their sexual life in 93% of cases.

Impact:

This research aims to improve the precise diagnosis and communication regarding sexual dysfunction in women with PID.
Establishing clear definitions can lead to more targeted and effective treatment strategies for sexual pain.
