Psychosexual dysfunction may be defined as an inability to become sexually aroused or achieve sexual
satisfaction in the appropriate situations because of mental or emotional reasons. Although
psychosexual dysfunction is not life threatening, it can have a major effect on your relationships and
self-esteem. It is the kind of sexual dysfunction that is due to psychological causes rather than physical
problems, medical illnesses, or the side effects of medication. In psychosexual dysfunction physical
problems have been ruled out (presence spontaneous erections & wetting in men and women
respectively). Usually, emotional problems are at the center of the dysfunction.
Reduced sexual desire or activity is common among women and men. Before treatment can begin, it is
necessary to determine whether the dysfunction may be caused by physical causes like diabetes, heart
disease, alcoholism, heavy smoking, side effects of medications, or hormonal problems. Only sexual
dysfunction due to psychological factors is called psychosexual dysfunction.
