The purpose of this study was to evaluate the sexual behavior of uremic patients before and after dialysis. A total of one hundred thirty-nine uremic patients (49 men, mean age 48.72 ±10.14 years, hemodialysis duration 4.00 ±2.2 years; 90 women, mean age 51.49 ±8.89 years, hemodialysis duration 3.65 ±2.51 years) were enrolled in the study of sexual behavior with questionnaire since 1998 May till 2000 April. The sexual behavior include libido, the frequency of intercourse, orgasm, erectile capacity. Solute removal index KT/V, nutritional parameter PCRN, Erythropoietin (EPO) dosage, HcT also had been monitored. The overall satisfaction showed increased in 92 (66%) patients after dialysis. While 34 of 49(69%) male and 58 of 90(64%) female reported improved sexual behavior. Moreever, 15 (31%) male and 32(36%) female did not get improvement. In male patients, sexual behavior (erection, intercourse, orgasm) showed increased (P＜0.05) after dialysis. While in female patients (intercourse, orgasm) also revealed increased (P＜0.05) after dialysis. Before dialysis 44 (90%) male patients showed libido, after dialysis the population did not increase. While in female patients, the libido decreased from 40(44%) to 38 (42%) after dialysis. Comparing the response with nonresponse group only age, Hct showed difference in male patient, while in female patient only EPO dosage showed some difference, Others like KT/V, PCRN did not show appreciable significance. We concluded the sexual behavior can be improved after adequate dialysis.
