Multifactorial etiology such as genetic, infectious, hormonal or environmental factors contribute to disease susceptibility. However, clear etiology is not still defined. Both women and men with RA suffer from decreased sexual function. Also, many factors include disease activity, medications or psychological disorders can affect sexual health in a patients with RA. Sexual health is important for human life. However, often overlooked is the association between RA and sexual problems in clinical practice.
