Although uterine prolapse is not a life-threatening condition, it can affect a woman's quality of life. Either operative or non-operative therapy can affect reproductive or sexual function. The purpose of this study was to analyze differences in sexual function scores in uterine prolapse patients between operative and non-operative therapy. Methods: This is an analytic observational study with a cross-sectional design.  Sampling technique used convenience sampling and data were analyzed by Mann-Withney test using SPSS. Results: There were 30 samples, 14 of them did operative therapy and 16 of them did non-operative or pesarry therapy. Data analysis using Mann-Withney test shown that the operative group had median score of 16,6 while the non-operative group had median score of 19,9 with p=0,124 (p>0,05). Conclusion: There was no significant difference of sexual function scores between patients with operative therapy and non-operative therapy.
