    (2019-06-25) Escobar Pérez, Lorena Raquel; Galarza Maldonado, Claudio Miguel
    During the last decades, humanity has experienced changes in the nature, understanding and experience of diseases. In this context there is an increasing number of people affected by chronic diseases, permanent organic-functional disorders that force patients and their environment, to review and modify permanently their lifestyle. The ability to live through new body demands an individual conception (of acceptance and self-knowledge) and collective (of ethical reciprocity) how to learn and care, to cope with a chronic disorder and also living with those who suffer it in conditions of dignity. Chronic diseases have effects not only on the physiological but, also on the psychological, social, economic, where the sexual dimension normally is forgotten. The relationship between gender, sexuality and diseases of long term is a pending issue in the field of health studies. Sexuality can be a potential tool for rehabilitation for those suffering from this type of condition. The combination of gender studies, sexuality and chronic diseases make up this research which seeks to address the ability of self-care and its effects on sexual satisfaction in chronic patients, taking as a pathology study rheumatoid arthritis.
