PURPOSE: We determined the incidence of @entity6982 and @entity322 in self-identified @entity458 . MATERIALS AND METHODS: In a preliminary study an @entity322 and genitourinary symptom questionnaire was distributed to female members of @entity458 survivor support groups and a control group of @entity1 attending a general gynecology clinic. The 52 item questionnaire contained questions regarding general physical and @entity458 , @entity322 and @entity66 , and @entity458 history. Fischer's exact test was used to compare responses between groups. RESULTS: Questionnaires from 58 @entity458 and 51 controls were included in the statistical analysis. Mean age +/- SD was higher in the control than in the abuse survivor group (47.8 +/- 18.5 vs 9.1 +/- 41.5 years, p = 0.03) but there was no difference in parity between groups (1.65 +/- 1.85 vs 1.36 +/- 1.44, p = 0.37). Of abuse survivors 72% and of controls 22% reported ever experiencing @entity322 (p <0.001). Many symptoms of @entity3142 , urge @entity322 and @entity409 were also reported by a greater percent of abuse survivors than controls. CONCLUSIONS: @entity458 survivors have a significantly higher incidence of @entity66 , including stress and urge @entity322 , and voluntary urinary retention. @entity734 survivors should be questioned about these symptoms, and evaluation and therapy should be recommended. This preliminary study demonstrates that the impact of psychological counseling in addition to medical therapy for @entity1973 in this group of @entity1 deserves further study.
