导论.虽然大多数美国人在性行为中使用避孕套和/或润滑剂,但在实验操作研究之外,对涉及使用此类产品的性事件的背景知之甚少。目标。在一项针对美国1859岁男性和女性的全国性代表性研究中,评估参与者在最近的性事件中使用避孕套和润滑剂的特征,以及他们使用避孕套和润滑剂与性质量事件级别评级的关系。方法.数据来自全国性健康和行为调查,该调查涉及对美国成年人的全国代表性概率样本进行在线问卷调查。主要结局指标。社会人口学项目:与性行为、避孕套使用、润滑剂使用以及参与者对性唤起、快感、勃起或润滑的容易程度以及与性相关的疼痛的感知有关的事件水平项目。结果在最近的性经历中,27.5%的男性(N = 237)和22.3%的女性(N = 175)报告使用了安全套。不确定安全套是否润滑(26.6%对11.4%)和材料(23.6%对8.9%)的女性是男性的两倍多。无论是否使用避孕套或润滑剂,参与者一致认为性行为是令人兴奋和愉快的。没有发现显着差异,男性的评级,其勃起的容易程度的基础上使用避孕套和润滑剂。结论.虽然有些人担心避孕套或润滑剂可能会影响他们的性享受,但在1859年的全国代表性男性和女性样本中,性行为的评分基本上相当高,基于避孕套和润滑剂的使用几乎没有差异。女性比男性更经常报告不确定所使用的避孕套和润滑剂的类型,这对患者教育有影响。Herbenick D、Schick V、Reece M、Sanders SA、Smith N、Dodge B和Fortenberry JD。美国1859岁成年人全国代表性概率样本中避孕套和润滑剂使用的特征J Sex Med 2013;10:474-483.
Introduction. Although most Americans have used condoms and/or lubricant during sex, little is known about the context of sexual events that involve the use of such products outside of experimentally manipulated studies. Aims. To assess, in a nationally representative study of men and women in the United States ages 1859, the characteristics of condom and lubricant use during participants' most recent sexual event and the relationship of their condom and lubricant use to event-level ratings of sexual quality. Methods. Data are from the National Survey of Sexual Health and Behavior, which involved the administration of an online questionnaire to a nationally representative probability sample of the U.S. adults. Main Outcome Measures. Sociodemographic items: event-level items related to sexual behavior, condom use, lubricant use, and participants' perceptions of their arousal, pleasure, ease of erection or lubrication, and pain associated with sex. Results. During their most recent sexual experience, 27.5% of men (N = 237) and 22.3% of women (N = 175) reported using a condom. More than twice as many women as men were unsure whether the condom was lubricated (26.6% vs. 11.4%) and the material it was made of (23.6% vs. 8.9%). Participants consistently rated sex to be arousing and pleasurable whether or not they used condoms or lubricant. No significant differences were found in regard to men's ratings of the ease of their erections based on condom and lubricant use. Conclusions. Although some have concerns about how condoms or lubricants may impact their enjoyment of sex, in a nationally representative sample of men and women ages 1859, ratings of sex were largely quite high, with few differences based on condom and lubricant use. Women, more often than men, reported being unsure about the type of condom and lubricant used, which has implications for patient education.
