Abstract(s)
A gravidez é um estádio da vida da mulher que envolve alterações fisiologias e psicológicas,
que afectam vários aspectos da sua vida, nomeadamente a vivência da sua sexualidade, como
por exemplo algumas alterações próprias que ocorrem neste período, nomeadamente
alterações da imagem corporal, sintomas fisiológicos desagradáveis, diminuição do nível de
energia, qualidade do relacionamento, alterações do humor, etc.
O presente estudo inscreve-se num modelo de estudo empírico, de carácter quantitativo e
exploratório, que pretende descrever, comparar e verificar relações entre variáveis (práticas
sexuais e satisfação sexual).
O objectivo deste trabalho foi então investigar as práticas sexuais e a satisfação sexual durante
a gravidez, numa amostra de 100 grávidas.
Utilizou-se um questionário de auto-preenchimento constituído por três partes: questionário
sócio-demográfico; questionário das práticas sexuais; e questionário da satisfação sexual
(ISS- Índice de Satisfação Sexual de Hudson (1991), adaptado por Pechorro (2006).
Primeiramente descreveu-se as práticas e a satisfação sexual durante a gravidez, seguidamente
comparou-se estas duas variáveis entre grávidas primíparas e multíparas e finalmente fez-se a
comparação entre os três trimestres de gestação. Os resultados obtidos indicam que as
grávidas são sexualmente activas, apresentam práticas sexuais variadas e estão bastante
satisfeitas.
