目的本研究旨在评估女性对伴侣的激情与性满意度、人口统计学因素、健康和生活方式特征、更年期状况和更年期症状之间的关系。方法对居住在马里兰州的女性（40-60岁）进行横断面研究（n=846）。采用χ2检验来评估每个结果变量（性满意度和对伴侣的激情之爱）与预测变量/自变量之间的相关性。进行逻辑回归分析以确定在调整混杂因素后，χ2分析的显著相关性是否仍然显著。结果焊料年龄(调整优势比（OR） 1.04；95%可信区间（CI） 1.01, 1.07)、高等教育（OR 1.47; 95% CI 1.09, 1.99）和酒精摄入（OR 1.42; 95% CI 1.03, 1.95）与对伴侣的激情低有关。年龄较大也是低性满意度的显著预测因子（OR 1.04; 95% CI 1.01, 1.07）。与没有阴道干燥的女性相比，经历阴道干燥的女性对伴侣的激情低（OR 1.67; 95% CI 1.21, 1.31）和性满意度低（OR 1.58; 95% CI 1.14, 2.20）的几率更高。结论年龄、高学历、饮酒、阴道干涩与对伴侣的热情程度降低显著相关，而年龄、阴道干涩与中年女性的性满意度降低显著相关。
OBJECTIVESThe present study was conducted to assess the associations between a woman's passionate love for her partner and sexual satisfaction and demographic factors, health and life-style characteristics, menopausal status, and menopausal symptoms.METHODSA cross-sectional study was conducted among women (40–60 years) residing in Maryland (n=846). χ2-tests were performed to evaluate the associations between each of the outcome variables (sexual satisfaction and passionate love for the partner) and predictor/independent variables. Logistic regression analysis was performed to determine whether significant associations from χ2analyses remained significant after adjustment for confounders.RESULTSOlder age (adjusted odds ratio (OR) 1.04; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.01, 1.07), higher education (OR 1.47; 95% CI 1.09, 1.99), and alcohol intake (OR 1.42; 95% CI 1.03, 1.95) were associated with low passion for the partner. Older age was also a significant predictor of low sexual satisfaction (OR 1.04; 95% CI 1.01, 1.07). Women experiencing vaginal dryness had higher odds of low passion for partner (OR 1.67; 95% CI 1.21, 1.31) and low sexual satisfaction (OR 1.58; 95% CI 1.14, 2.20) than women not experiencing vaginal dryness.CONCLUSIONSOlder age, higher education, alcohol intake, and vaginal dryness are significantly associated with lower levels of passionate love for the partner, while older age and vaginal dryness are significantly associated with lower levels of sexual satisfaction in midlife women.
