    We prospectively evaluated the effect of the treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) on sexual function. The patients were assessed by using the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-15) inventory at baseline and three months after medical (alpha-blockers) or surgical treatment (transurethral resection of the prostate, TURP). Following treatment, there were improvement in erectile function and intercourse satisfaction while orgasmic, overall satisfaction and sexual drive were relatively unchanged in the medication group. Patients who had surgical treatment suffered retrograde ejaculation, dissatisfaction in sexual intercourse and overall sexual satisfaction compared to patients who were on alpha-blockers.

    INTRODUCTION: Female sexual dysfunction (FSD) among the obese women is often under diagnosed and ignored especially in Malaysia, a nation of conservative multiethnic society. There are only a few studies on FSD resolution post-bariatric surgery. The objective was to identify the rate and resolution or improvement of FSD, among obese multiethnic Malaysian women post-bariatric surgery.

    MATERIAL AND METHODS: This is a prospective study of women undergoing bariatric surgery, between May 2017 and April 2018. FSD was diagnosed using the Malay version of Female Sexual Function Index (MVFSFI) questionnaire. Patients filled up the questionnaire before and 6 months after surgery. Association between BMI reduction and FSFI score improvement was measured using Fisher's exact test. Outcomes between types of surgery (sleeve gastrectomy and gastric bypass) was compared.

    RESULTS: Fifty-two women completed the study. The mean age was 38.77 ± 6.7. There were 44 (84.6%) Malay patients, 7 (13.5%) Indian patients, and 1 (1.9%) Chinese patient. There was a significant reduction in mean BMI, 39.89 ± 6.9 pre-surgery to 30.32 ± 5.4 post-surgery (p value sexual domains and should be considered as a management option in this group of women.
