Sexual dysfunctions affect both the quality of life of women and the relationship with their partners. It can influence physical and mental health and can be affected by organic, emotional and social factors. The disturbance of any of the phases of the sexual response (desire, arousal, orgasm and resolution) can lead to the appearance of sexual dysfunctions. In this sense, the aim of this study is to report on sexual dysfunctions in women with fibromyalgia through a literature review. This is an integrative literature review, with descriptive methodology, presented in a qualitative way. Data collection was performed through electronic search, in the National Library of Medicine (PUBMED), Scientific Electronic Library Online (SCIELO) and Latin American and Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences (LILACS) and Virtual Health Library ( VHL).

Thus, the studies also elucidated the importance of pelvic physical therapy for the quality of women diagnosed with sexual dysfunction.
