Patient's question:
I've been divorced from my husband for almost two years. I've never been very enthusiastic about sex, and whenever my husband makes a suggestion, I always hide it. My husband loves me very much and doesn't have any objections. What causes sexual dysfunction?Doctor's answer:
Sexual dysfunction may be caused by various factors such as intergenerational inheritance, health conditions, hormone levels, age, diseases including chronic conditions, neuropsychiatric disorders, endocrine diseases, and inflammation of the reproductive organs. Medications, long-term heavy drug use, or drug abuse can also lead to sexual dysfunction. For male patients, timely treatment can reduce the risk of complications, whereas delayed treatment may affect fertility. Therefore, patients should seek timely medication treatment and avoid overexertion in daily life while paying attention to personal hygiene.
