The Treatment of Sexual Dysfunctions - Sex Therapy

Some Particular Sexual Health Problems

Sexual aversion, inhibited sexual desire, and pain during sexual intercourse are particular health problems that can have a great variety of causes and may require an equally great variety of physical and psychological therapeutic approaches. To a certain extent, this is also true of the “classic” sexual dysfunctions, but on the whole, they present a much clearer picture. Moreover, modern sex therapy has provided us with a number of successful standardized treatments to deal with them. For the purpose of this course we therefore concentrate on the “classic” dysfunctions and cast only a cursury glance at the other problems.
