Objective: To determine the factors associated with sexual dysfunction during pregnancy in pregnant women attending the maternal and child health center in Santa Anita, from January to October 2016. Materials and Methods: An observational, descriptive, analytical, and cross-sectional study of 201 pregnant women was conducted using the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI). Chi-square tests were employed for statistical analysis. Results: The average age of the pregnant women was 26.2 ± 4.3 years, with 94.5% falling within the 19-34 age range. The predominant sociodemographic characteristics were cohabiting women (64.2%) and those with a secondary education level (46.8%). Sexual dysfunction was found in 42.8% of the studied pregnant women. The associated factors that influenced sexual dysfunction were: gestational age (p<0.001), unplanned pregnancy (p<0.001), and urinary tract infection (p<0.001). Urinary tract infection was 5.7 times more prevalent in women with sexual dysfunction compared to those without it. Sexual dysfunction was 13.5 times more prevalent in the third trimester of pregnancy compared to those without sexual dysfunction. The prevalence of sexual dysfunction was higher in the first and third trimesters of pregnancy; however, sexuality improved in the second trimester. Pregnant women who planned their pregnancies had higher ratings in the satisfaction domain, while those who did not plan had higher ratings in lubrication and satisfaction. The presence of a urinary tract infection significantly worsened sexual function, affecting all domains. Conclusions: The findings suggest that factors such as urinary tract infection and unplanned pregnancy influence sexual dysfunction during pregnancy, with higher prevalence during the first and third trimesters.
