Is there an association between female XXXX and decreased genital sensation?

@entity1 @entity16 @entity322 @entity250
AIM: To explore the relationship between @entity322 and genital sensory functioning in females with @entity250 . METHODS: A retrospective consecutive chart review was conducted for all @entity1 who were referred to our tertiary female urology clinic with a primary complaint of @entity250 between October 1999 and January 2009. Our study sample included 177 @entity1 , all of whom underwent a thorough clinical evaluation. Urinary incontinence was diagnosed based on clinical history and physical examination by a urogynecologist. The Genital Thermal and Vibratory Sensory Analyzer (GSA) was used for sensory testing in the genital area. Independent t-test and multivariate linear regression were used for statistical analysis. RESULTS: Of the 177 study @entity1 (median age 34, range 18-68), 63 (36%) had @entity322 . @entity1 with @entity322 were found to be less sensitive to warm, cold, and vibratory thresholds at both the anterior and the posterior vaginal wall and the clitoral area (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: @entity1 with @entity322 and @entity250 are less sensitive to all sensory testing in the genital region than @entity1 with @entity250 alone. This relationship may be attributable to afferent @entity16 and the critical role it may play in the etiology of @entity322 .
