What this trial studies

This observational study aims to assess the sexual functions of pregnant women classified as high-risk, with their pregnancies monitored by perinatology specialists. The focus is on understanding how high-risk pregnancies may impact sexual health and function. By gathering data from participants in their third trimester, the study seeks to identify any correlations between pregnancy complications and sexual dysfunction. The findings could provide valuable insights into the sexual health needs of this population.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates for this study are pregnant women aged 18 to 39 years who are in their third trimester and classified as having high-risk pregnancies.

Not a fit: Patients who are under 18 years old, over 40 years old, or in their first or second trimester will not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could enhance understanding and management of sexual dysfunction in high-risk pregnant women, leading to improved quality of life.

How similar studies have performed: While there is limited information on similar studies, the focus on sexual function in high-risk pregnancies is relatively novel and may not have been extensively tested in previous research.
