Resumo

This cross-sectional study aimed to identify factors related to coital frequency (CF) among 254 women in their 30s using a semistructured interview to collect sociodemographic, anthropometric, reproductive, clinical, and relationship data. CF was characterized as (a) never, (b) rarely (1times/month), (c) occasionally (1times /week), (d) regularly (2-3times/week), or (e) frequently (>3times/week). The mean age was 34.38 +/- 0.43years, mean body mass index (BMI) was 27.86 +/- 6.52 kg, mean family income was US\$1,044.18 +/- 796.19, mean number of children was 1.71 +/- 0.89, and mean relationship duration was 8.87 +/- 5.11years. Eighty-seven women (35.2%) were taking hormonal contraceptives, 143 (98.0%) were employed, 239 (96.48%) had a secondary or higher education, and 9 (3.62%) had primary schooling. CF was classified as >3times/week in 22 (8.66%), 2-3times/week for 98 (38.58%), 1times/week in 40 (15.75%), 1times/month in 14 (5.51%), and never in 5 (1.97%). Women who reported having coitus >3times/week a week had significantly higher body mass index (BMI; 32.72 +/- 7.42kg/m(2)) than those who had coitus 2-3times/week (28.45 +/- 6.76kg/m(2)) and 1times /week (26.81 +/- 5.39kg/m(2)) (p < 0.01 for both comparisons). Thus, coital frequency varies in women in their 30s. Obese women had a higher CF than normal-weight and overweight women. (AU)
