    Background: Female sexual dysfunction can go very unnoticed and is often given less importance compared to that presented in men, it’s been seen that it has many associated factors and that it occurs very frequently in our society. General objective: To determine factors associated with female sexual dysfunction in students of the career of medicine, of the University of Cuenca, during the year 2020 - 2021. Methodology: Observational, analytical, cross-sectional cohort study. 181 surveys that met the inclusion criteria were analyzed. The evaluation of sexual function was achieved by using the "female sexual function index”; and the "Cognoscitive Systemic Inventory for the study of academic stress" was used to recognize the level of academic stress, and for the assessment of the couple relationship, the "Satisfaction Index For couples". The analysis was carried out based on descriptive statistics and, depending on the variables, mean and standard deviation were applied for the quantitative variables, as well as frequencies and percentages for the qualitative ones; in order to determine the relationship between proposed associated factors and sexual dysfunction, the chi-square test was applied, with the prevalence ratio and 95% confidence interval and p-value (<0.05). Results: The prevalence of sexual dysfunction was 34.3%, orgasm and desire disorder were the most affected domains with 24.9% and 21% respectively. An association was found between the unsatisfied partner relationship and greater sexual dysfunction (OR = 4.81; 95% CI = 2.484 - 9.315; p = 0.000). Conclusions: the presence of these alterations was found in more than a quarter of the study population, being associated with risk factors such as unsatisfied partner relationships.
