Description

Jasmin Mahler and others put out a survey study in 2024. They studied sexual activity after spinal cord injury. Women with long-term spinal injury joined at one center. Bladder emptying often needs catheter help after injury. Two catheter methods were set side by side for sexual impact. One method uses repeat single catheter passes. The other uses a fixed suprapubic catheter tube. Forms checked activity and sexual function head-on. Age and injury traits were also weighed with care.

About half of women were active in sex overall. Activity rates varied sharply by catheter method though. Repeat-use catheter users were active far more often. Leakage worry was their main concern during sex. Suprapubic users struggled more with the tube itself. Advice should address the concerns of each method openly.
