6.4: Sexual Dysfunction

( \newcommand{\kernel}{\mathrm{null}\,}\)

Sexual dysfunction can pose public health problems, as it is related to public health issues and affects people’s happiness and general well-being.

According to the National Health and Social Life Survey:

  • The prevalence of sexual dysfunction was found to be higher among women than men.
  • Lack of sexual desire is the most common problem among women
  • For men, the most common sexual problem is premature ejaculation, not erectile dysfunction.
  • Sexual problems increase with age, but sex-related personal distress decreases.
