What was measured

The FSFI total score measures self-reported female sexual functioning covering the major domains arousal, satisfaction, and orgasm, and including lubrication and pain. Possible scores range from 2 to 36, with higher scores indicating better functioning. Change score is calculated by subtracting baseline from later score, with a positive change score indicating increased functioning. This measure is referred to as "sexual functioning" in the protocol.
