Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the status quo of sexual function and marital adjustment of postpartum women and their spouses, so as to analyze the subject-object effects of sexual function and marital adjustment.Methods:This was a cross-sectional study. A total of 240 postpartum women and their spouses who gave birth in PLA Rocket Force Characteristic Medical Center from October 2022 to February 2023 were selected as the research objects by the convenient sampling method. The general data questionnaire, Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), Male Sexual Function Index (MSFI) and Locke-Wallace Marital Adjustment Test were used to investigate them. Pearson correlation analysis and actor-partner interdependence model (APIM) were used to explore the relationship between sexual function and marital adjustment of postpartum women and their spouses.Results:In this study, 480 questionnaires were distributed to 240 couples, and 450 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective recovery rate of 93.75% (450/480). The sexual function index score of 225 postpartum women was (24.89±4.97), and that of their spouses was (49.64±7.99). The marital adjustment scores of postpartum women was (96.42±22.64) and that of their spouses was (103.38±23.93). The results of APIM showed that the sexual function of postpartum women and their spouses could predict their own marital adjustment (β-values of 0.765 and 0.176, P<0.01). In terms of object effect, the sexual function of postpartum women could predict the marital adjustment of their spouses (β=0.632, P<0.01), but the sexual function of their spouses could not predict the marital adjustment of postpartum women ( P>0.05) . Conclusions:Postpartum women and their spouses have sexual dysfunction and marital disorder, their own sexual function is closely related to marital adjustment, and women's sexual function can also positively affect their spouses' marital adjustment. Medical staff should take postpartum women and their spouses as a whole to formulate intervention measures to promote the recovery of postpartum women's sexual function, balance family relations, enhance the satisfaction of sexual life between husband and wife and improve the level of marital adjustment.
