Introduction[edit | edit source]
Sexual dysfunction is defined as a complication occurring in any phase of the sexual response cycle. The phases of the sexual response cycle include; excitement, plateau, orgasm, and resolution[1]. Sexual dysfunction is extremely common among women and men, and effective treatment is available. However, few individuals seek help as many, even healthcare professionals, are embarrassed and hesitant to discuss the topic.
Sexual dysfunction, although less common in men, still affects 31% of men and has a large impact on the quality of life as well as interpersonal relationships[2].
Erectile dysfunction ( 5–20% of men) and premature ejaculation (20–30% of men) are the most common male sexual dysfunctions[3].
