Avaliação da função sexual e miccional de homens transexuais

Transsexuality is about changing individuals of their male or female gender identified at birth to live in society under their alternative gender identity. Aiming at this adaptation, transsexualizing procedures are performed, however, little is known about the sexual and urinary function after these processes. In this sense, this study proposed to evaluate the sexual and urinary functions of transsexual men submitted to hormonal therapy. Thirteen transsexual men participated in the study and the questionnaires were used: Female Sexual Discomfort Scale (FSDS-R), Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), Three Questions Incontinence Test (3IQ), Protection, Amount, Frequency, Adjustment, Bodyimage (PRAFAB). Excel software was used for data entry, preparation of tables and descriptive statistical analysis. In FSDS-R, 10 (76.92%) of trans men are sexually uncomfortable. The average FSFI score was 14.8 points, suggesting sexual dysfunction. In the 3IQ test, 25% reported losing urine, of these, 75% had urinary urgency and 25% had urinary incontinence (UI) on exertion. In the total PRAFAB score, 50% had a mild UI and 50% had a moderate UI. Therefore, the assessment was positive for a tendency towards sexual dysfunction in this population. Regarding the voiding function, the minority of trans men showed changes.
