Abstract To understand the prevalence and associated factors of female pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) in Hainan Tibetan autonomous prefecture of Qinghai province. Methods: From August to September 2020, a cross-sectional study was conducted in the medical history, physical examination, and pelvic floor muscle strength assessment of 1038 married women from Hainan tibetan autonomous prefecture. And the questionnaire of this survey was analyzed. Results: In these 1038 women, their average age was 41.95±9.49 years (17-66 years). The prevalence of PFD was 83.5% (867/1038), which included 69.46% (721/1038) pelvic organ prolapse (POP), 52.99% (550/1038) women with urinary incontinence (UI), and 0.39% (4/1038) women with piriformis syndrome. Multivariate regression analysis showed that the risk factors of PFD included aging, more parity, and history of chronic genitourinary tract infection. Aging was an independent risk factor of POP. Conclusion: The prevalence of PFD among women in Hainan Tibetan autonomous prefecture of Qinghai province is high, which is worthy of attention, especially for POP and UI.
