Rev Soc Esp Dolor 2018; 25(3): 145-154 / DOI: 10.20986/resed.2018.3600/2017

ABSTRACT

Introduction: Most of research are conclusive when stating chronic pain and decreased life’s quality relationship. However, sexual factor is not usually analysed in a specific path.

Desing and methods: The aim of this study is to undertake a bibliographic review divided by analgesic groups in order to determine in a certain way the painkiller influence over the sexual response, and in a second place, to describe the connection between pain and sexual response in not-oncological chronic pain patients.

Results: Results show that there is a high prevalence of sexual difficulties in patients of the Pain Units. These difficulties are related to psychological alterations, patients’ type of pain

and age.

Conclusions: These results suggest that a multidisciplinary intervention, centred on the exhaustive evaluation of this problem, health education and sexual counselling, could contribute to the improvement of the quality of life of our patients.

Key words: Sexual dysfunction, chronic pain, antidepressant drugs, fibromyalgia.
