Patient's question:
What are the causes of female sexual dysfunction?Doctor's answer:
Female sexual dysfunction is classified into several categories, all based on the female sexual response cycle. In 1994, China's () Mental Disorders Classification and Diagnostic Criteria categorized it into decreased libido, dyspareunia, vaginismus (sexual phobia), and lack of orgasm. In 1998, the American Urological Association's Sexual Function Health Committee proposed a new classification system after evaluating various existing classifications. Male sexual dysfunction is treatable, but the treatment process is generally slow, and relapse is common after treatment. Therefore, active cooperation with the doctor is essential during the treatment.
