Abstract

Background: The possibility of pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) occurrence seems to be higher in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) due to the presence of functional gastrointestinal disorders in these patients. Hence, this study aimed to evaluate the association of ulcerative colitis (UC) in women with PFD and its comparison with the healthy (without IBD) population. Methods: The present study was conducted on 150 women with UC and 150 without-IBD individuals. Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory (PFDI-20) was used to evaluate the pelvic floor function. Results: The results of this study revealed that UC had a significant role in increasing not only the PFD score (Beta = 3.04; P < 0.001) but also the score of each sub-scale of Pelvic Organ Prolapse Distress Inventory (POPDI) (Beta = 6.61; P < 0.001), Colo-Rectal-Anal Distress Inventory (CRADI) (Beta = 9.37; P < 0.001), and Urinary Distress Inventory (UDI) (Beta = 5.56; P = 0.015). In addition, aging, increased body mass index (BMI) and menopause had significant role in increasing POPDI, UDI, and PFDI scores, respectively (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The percentage of PFD in women with UC was significantly higher than its percentage in women without IBD. This dysfunction was more visible in the two sub-scales of POPDI and CRADI. In addition to having UC, aging, BMI, and menopause played a significant role in increasing PFD. © 2024 The Author(s).
