Abstract (English): Background: The symptoms affecting the sexual sphere in women's during climacteric are of high prevalence. Objective: To describe the fundamental aspects of human sexual response during the climacteric and to analyze the effect of climacteric replacement hormone therapy. Methodology: A revision of existing bibliography was done, from MEDLINE and LILACS databases, finding a total of 465 articles. From that group, those which presented the highest scientific rigor were selected. Results: It was found that climacteric affects in a variable way the female sexual response, affecting not only her biological sphere, but her psychological and behavioral spheres. It can be seen that there are endocrine and trophic factors acting upon the different tissues which modify the coital factor of this response. It was also found that sexual desire and orgasm are affected in a more variable way, the affection not exclusively depending on biological parameters. Conclusion: The use of hormone replacement lowers the deterioration of the human sexual response during climacterium. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Spanish): Antecedentes: los síntomas que afectan la esfera sexual durante el climaterio son altamente prevalentes. Objetivo: describir los aspectos fundamentales de la respuesta sexual humana en un sentido integral, analizar las modificaciones que el climaterio le imprime y la inferencia de la terapia hormonal de reemplazo en la respuesta y el comportamiento sexual humano. Metodología: se realizó una revisión de la bibliografía de las bases de datos MEDLINE y LILACS en donde se encontraron 465 artículos sobre el tema. Se seleccionaron los estudios con mayor rigor científico. Resultados: el climaterio repercute en forma variable en la respuesta sexual femenina; afecta la esfera biológica, psicológica y comportamental de la misma. En los distintos tejidos que modifican el factor coital de esta respuesta existen factores endocrinos y tróficos. El deseo sexual y el orgasmo se afectan en forma más variable, no dependiendo exclusivamente de parámetros biológicos. Conclusión: la terapia de reemplazo hormonal disminuye el deterioro de la respuesta sexual en mujeres en etapa del climaterio. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
