Female Sexual Functioning Index

The impact of CO2laser for treatment of Bartholin’s gland cyst or abscess on female sexual function: a pilot study

The aim of this study is to evaluate the sexual functionality before and after treatment of Bartholin’s gland diseases (BGD) with CO2laser and to compare our results to patients who underwent surgical cold knife and to a healthy control group (HCG). Consecutive patients (n = 15) affected by BG cyst or abscess who underwent CO2laser treatment were evaluated. Patients were asked to complete the Italian translation of the Female Sexual Functioning Index (FSFI) before and 4 weeks after treatment.
