Abstract
Objectives: Despite the noticeable advances in sexual dysfunction (SD) research in the menopausal period, scientific literature showed different reports on the prevalence of SD in the menopausal stages. The primary objective of this study was to systematically review and meta-analysis the prevalence of SD in the different menopausal stages and then meta-analysis the included studies in domains of SD separately. Methods: In this systematic review and meta-analysis, keywords were retrieved through MeSH strategy and databases such as PubMed/MEDLINE, PsycINFO, Web of Science (ISI), Scopus, ScienceDirect, SID (Scientific Information Database), Magiran, and Google scholar were searched. Manual review of retrieved citations identified additional citations. The quality of the included studies was assessed using The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. The main outcome measure in this study was the prevalence of SD in three stages of menopause such as pre, peri, and postmenopause.Results: Of 54 included studies 81,227 menopausal aged women from different menopause stages participated and the sample sizes varied from 49 to 31,581 individuals. The articles from 17 countries worldwide were included in this study. The prevalence of SD in premenopausal aged women was ranged between 22.7% and 72.2%, in perimenopausal aged women, was 37.3–78.2% and also in postmenopausal aged women was extremely reported a wide variety of prevalence ranges and was estimated between 8.7% and 89.01%. The premenopausal women had a lower prevalence of SD compared to other stages of the menopausal period. Conclusion: The results indicated that the prevalence of SD and also domains of SD in different studies were reported much widely. This study can be used as a good resource for obstetricians to understand the high possibility of recurrence of SD and assess the sexual activity of menopausal aged women in the menopause clinic. However, based on the systematic review, more standard and high-quality studies are needed to perform regarding the prevalence of SD in menopausal periods.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
