Abstract

<p>Purpose: To clarify the components and characteristics of subjective sexual well-being (SSWB) of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).</p><p>Method: Referring to the text-mining approach, analysis was performed on the self-descriptions for sexually pleasing and satisfying state by 88 patients to a self-administered questionnaire survey, involving categorization of dependency structure, frequency analysis, and feature analysis.</p><p>Results: SSWB consisted of seven categories. Two of seven categories, “psychological stability” and “physical health,” were particular to IBD patients. These particulars were observed: among male patients, “satisfaction of sexual needs”; among female patients, “mutual empathy”; among patients aged 20 to 39, “psychological stability”; and among male patients aged 40 to 59, “satisfaction of sexual needs.” “Satisfaction of sexual needs” was characteristic among male patients in good subjective physical condition or good subjective relationships, and “realization of skinship” (physical intimacy) among female patients with Crohn’s disease or stoma.</p><p>Conclusion: The components and characteristics of SSWB are influenced by the degree of IBD symptoms. These findings can be harnessed so as to be introduced as topics, to set intervention goals that reflect the SSWB of a subject or to evaluate achievement.</p>
