Abstract

Objective: Analyze according to the literature, the impacts of urinary incontinence on the sexual life of adults. Method: This is an
integrative literature review study using the PICO strategy (Population/Intervention/Comparison/Outcome) in the databases Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (MEDLINE), Latin American & Caribbean Health Sciences Literature (Lilacs) and in the Specialized Bibliographic Database in the area of Nursing (BDENF). Full texts were included, with a time frame from January 2015 to February 2021, in Portuguese, English and Spanish. Results: Five studies were selected for analysis. Of the 5 (100%) studies, three (60%) specifically evaluated the feelings experienced by incontinent women and their relationship with the quality of sexual life. Conclusion: Urinary incontinence implies, in addition to the biological aspect, important repercussions in sensitive areas, such as sexuality. Thus, it is necessary to provide these people with support and information on prevention, treatment and rehabilitation care.
