Summary

Sjogren's syndrome (SS) is a chronic, systemic, autoimmune disease characterized by lymphocytic infiltration of all exocrine glands, especially tear and salivary glands, and is more common in women.

Detailed description

Sexual functions are affected by symptoms such as pain, fatigue, stiffness, and hormonal imbalance in rheumatological disorders. Vaginal dryness and dyspepsia negatively affect participation in sexual activity. The aim of the study is to examine the pelvic floor problems of women with SS with a self-report, to compare them with healthy individuals, and finally to examine the relationship between pelvic floor problems and sexual dysfunction.
