Sexual dysfunction is an important topic often not discussed or taught in schools. Furthermore, a CNA lifestyle article published in Oct 2021 showed that “nearly 60% of Singaporean women have low s*xual function”, putting them at risk of developing s*xual dysfunction.

As such, to understand more about the possible causes of s*xual dysfunction, we are currently doing a research project to understand how BMI, Body Image and Self-esteem interact and influence each other, and how all of them individually and collectively affect Sexual Function in our local population.

This project will be conducted through an online anonymous questionnaire.

Do help us fill up this form if you are:
- Singaporean or PR female
- Age 21 - 35
- Sexually active

The succession of this project will not only bring about better s*xual education in Singapore as a whole, , but also help us understand this condition better which open new doors for possible treatment options in the future.
