Abstract

Introduciton: There are limited studies investigating the relation between dyadic adjustment, and sexual functions. The aim of this study was to compare patients with bipolar disorder (BD) in euthymic phase with healthy controls, and confirm our hypothesis which we expect to find that dyadic adjustment is negatively affected in bipolar patients with sexual dysfunctions (SDs).
