Abstract

Relationships between sacroiliac (SID) and sexual dysfunctions (SD) are investigated by researching at SciELO and PUBMED databases for articles in English and Portuguese, published between 2006 and 2012, with keywords sacroiliac articulation and female sexual dysfunction. Seven articles were retrieved. Results showed that fractures of pelvic waist are related to female SD. Although theoretical bases indicate clear relationship among other non-fracture SIDs and SD, relationship was not found in the literature. Further studies should be undertaken on anatomical and biomechanical changes of the sacroiliac articulation, especially those that weaken or cause tension on the pelvic floor as possible etiological SD factors.
