Résumé :
|
The aims of the study were to understand how education relates to contraceptive choice and how sexual function can vary in relation to the use of a contraceptive method. The questionnaire was completed by 413 women (362 students and 51 women attending the family planning services) between the ages of 18 and 30 years. The two groups shared in common a preference for cheap and easy-to-use contraception. The vaginal ring was associated with better sexual function. Despite their scientific knowledge, Italian female medical students were found to need sexual and contraceptive assistance. A woman's sexual function responds to her awareness of her body and varies in relation to how she is guided in her contraceptive choice. Contraceptive counselling is an excellent means to improve female sexuality.
