Is not wanting to have sex a sign of sexual dysfunction?

Patient's question:

For many years, I've felt that I don't have sexual desire. I want to ask, is not wanting to have sex a sexual dysfunction?

Doctor's answer:

Sexual dysfunction generally exhibits the following manifestations:
1. Sexual desire disorders: This includes hypoactive sexual desire, sexual aversion, and hypersexuality. Sexual desire disorders refer to one of the types of abnormal sexual desire, encompassing conditions such as lack of libido and reduced sexual desire.
2. Sexual intercourse disorders: This includes conditions like sexual intercourse syncope, sexual intercourse aphasia, sudden death during intercourse, and sexual intercourse phobia.
Male sexual dysfunction can be stabilized, but the treatment period is usually long, and relapse is common after recovery. Therefore, during treatment, medications must be used according to symptoms. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene.
