Etiological Differences in Chronic Low Back Pain Matter for Women's Sexual Health and Well‐Being: A Comparative Cross‐Sectional Analysis

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is a common and disabling condition that can negatively affect sexual health. Although CLBP is classified as specific or non‐specific based on underlying pathology, whether these etiologies differentially influence women's sexual function and sexual quality of life remains unclear.
