CONCLUSION
This large, cross-sectional, explorative study investigated the influence of AR polymorphisms (CAG repeats) as an indirect measure of AR sensitivity to androgens on female sexual function and dysfunction. Overall, higher numbers of CAG repeats were correlated with better sexual function in general. Shorter CAG repeat lengths were associated with a reduced ability to reach orgasm among women. This finding suggested that AR might play a role in women’s sexual function, including women’s ability to reach orgasm. The study demonstrated no associations between CAG repeat length and other aspects of FSD, including HSDD.
