Sexual dysfunction or sexual malfunction is difficulty experienced by an individual or a couple during any stage of a normal sexual activity, including physical pleasure, desire, preference, arousal or orgasm.It requires a person to feel extreme distress and interpersonal strain for a minimum of 6 months.
Sexual Disorders
Sexuality
One of the most personal area of life. Each of us is sexual being with preferences and fantasies that may surprise or even shock us from time to time. Usually these are part of normal sexual functioning. But when our fantasies or desire begin to affect or other in unwanted or harmful ways, they begin to qualify as abnormal.
For perspective, we begin by briefly describing norms and healthy sexual behavior. Then we consider two forms of sexual problems: sexual dysfunctioning and paraphilias.
Sexual Norms and Behavior
Consider contemporary Western worldviews that inhibition of sexual expression causes problems. Contrast this with nineteenth-and-early-twentieth-century views that excess was culprit; in particular excessive masturbation in childhood was widely believe to lead to sexual problems in adulthood. Von Krafft-Ebing (1902) postulated that early masturbation damage the sexual organs and exhausted a finite reservoir of sexual energy, resulting in diminishing ability to function sexually in adulthood. Even in adulthood, excessive sexual activity was thought to underlie problems such us erectile failure. The general Victorian view was that sexual appetite was dangerous and therefore had to be restrained.
Sexual Norms and Behavior
Other changes over time have influence people attitudes and experiences of sexuality.
Aside from changes over time and across generation, culture influences attitudes and beliefs about sexuality. In some culture, sexuality is viewed as an important part of well-being and pleasure, wheras in others, sexuality is viewed as relevant only for procreation (Bhurga, Popelyuk & McMullen, 2010). Cultures also vary in their acceptance of variation in sexual behavior.
In other culture it is common to stigmatize same-gender sexual behavior. Clearly, we must keep varying cultural norms in mind as we study human sexual behavior.
Gender and Sexuality
Across wide range of indices, men reported more engagement in sexual thought and behavior that do women.
Compared to women, men report thinking about sex, masturbation, and desiring sex more often, as well as desiring more sexual partner and having more partners.
Beyond these differences in sex drive Peplau (2003) has described several other ways in which the genders tend to differ in sexuality. Women tend to be more ashamed of any flaws in their appearance than the men, and this shame can interfere with sexual satisfaction (Sanchez & Kiefer, 2007)
Gender and Sexuality
For women, sexual appears more closely tied to relationship status and social norms that for men (Baumeister, 200).
Among women with sexual symptoms, more than half believe their symptoms are caused by relationship problems (Nicholls, 2008).
Men are more likely to think about their sexuality in terms of power than are women (Andersen, et al. 1999).

There are many parallels in men’s and women’s sexuality.

Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.
The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

2. Episiotomy scars
3. Bartholin’s gland infection
4. Various forms of vaginitis and cervicitis
5. Endometriosis, and adenomyosis

31. The overall propensity of an antipsychotic to cause sexual dysfunction
is related to propensity to raise prolactin,
i.e.
Risperidone > Haloperidol > Olanzapine > Quetiapine > Aripiprazole
Antipsychotic‐induced sedation and weight gain may reduce sexual
desire.
Anti-depressant Mirtazapine, Bupropion, Reboxetine are relatively
safe compare to SSRI, TCA, SNRI, MAOIs

33. ■ Dual-Sex Therapy:
The methodology was originated and developed by Masters and Johnson.
In dual-sex therapy, treatment is based on a concept that the couple must
be treated when a dysfunctional person is in a relationship.
Because both are involved in a sexually distressing situation, both must
participate in the therapy program.
Masters and Johnson
34. ■ The four way sessions require active participation by the patients.
■ Therapists and patients discuss the psychological and physiological
aspects of sexual functioning, and therapists have an educative attitude.
■ The aim of the therapy is to establish or reestablish communication within
the partner unit.
■ Treatment is short term and is behaviorally oriented.
■ The therapists attempt to reflect the situation as they see it, rather than
interpret underlying dynamics.
35. Specific Techniques and Exercises
Vaginismus:
■ A woman is advised to dilate her vaginal opening with her fingers or with
size-graduated dilators.
■ Dilators are also used to treat cases of dyspareunia. Sometimes,
treatment is coordinated with specially trained physiotherapists who work
with the patients to help them relax their perineal muscles.
36. Specific Techniques and Exercises
Premature ejaculation:
An exercise known as the squeeze technique is used to raise the
threshold of penile excitability.
37. Stop–start technique:
Developed by James H. Semans, in which the woman stops all stimulation
of the penis when the man first senses an impending ejaculation.
No squeeze is used.
In cases of lifelong female orgasmic disorder, the woman is directed to
masturbate, sometimes using a vibrator.
38. Behavior Therapy
■ Behavioral approaches were initially designed for the treatment of
phobias but are now used to treat other problems as well.
■ Behavior therapists assume that sexual dysfunction is learned
maladaptive behavior, which causes patients to be fearful of sexual
interaction.
■ Therapists set up a hierarchy of anxiety provoking situations, ranging
from least threatening (e.g., the thought of kissing) to most threatening
(e.g., the thought of penile penetration).
39. Mindfulness
■ Mindfulness is a cognitive technique that has been helpful in the
treatment of sexual dysfunction.
■ The patient is directed to focus on the moment and maintain an
awareness of sensations—visual, tactile, auditory, and olfactory—that
he or she experiences in the moment.
■ The aim is to distract the patient from watching him or herself and
center the person on the sensations that lead to arousal and/or
orgasm.
40. Group Therapy
■ A therapy group provides a strong support system for a patient who feels
ashamed, anxious, or guilty about a particular sexual problem.
■ It is a useful forum in which to counteract sexual myths, correct
misconceptions, and provide accurate information about sexual
anatomy, physiology, and varieties of behavior.
■ Members may all share the same problem, such as premature
ejaculation; members may all be of the same sex with different sexual
problems; or groups may be composed of both men and women who are
experiencing a variety of sexual problems.
42. Investigation:
■ Penile Doppler Ultrasound is a procedure that is used to predict
the response of your erectile dysfunction (ED) to vasodilation
medications that enhance blood flow to the penis.
43. Pharmacotherapy:
1. Sildenafil (viagra) and its congeners
2. Oral phentolamine; alprostadil
3. Injectable medications; papaverine, prostaglandin E1,
phentolamine, or some combination of these
4. Transurethral alprostadil.

44. Hormone therapy
■ Androgens increase the sex drive in women and in men with low
testosterone concentrations.
■ Clomiphene and tamoxifen are both antiestrogens, and both
stimulate gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) secretion and
increase testosterone concentrations, thereby increasing libido.
45. Vacuum pumps:
These are mechanical devices that patients without vascular
disease can use to obtain erections.
The blood drawn into the penis following the creation of the vacuum
is kept there by a ring placed around the base of the penis.
46. Shockwave therapy is administered with a wand-like device placed
near different areas of the penis. The device along parts of your penis
for about 15 minutes while it emits gentle pulses. No anesthesia is
needed. The pulses trigger improved blood flow and tissue remodeling
in the penis.
Surgical Treatment:
Inflatable Penis Prosthesis and vascular surgery
Shockwave therapy Inflatable Penis
47. Sexual-Dysfunction Myths
1. Sexual dysfunction is only a problem for older men.
2. Erectile dysfunction is the only sexual problem that can be reliably
treated.
3. Dysfunction is a result of a man no longer finding his partner sexy.
4. Sexual dysfunction cannot be prevented.
5. Treating a man’s sexual problems doesn’t require his partner’s
input.

Editor's Notes
The judgment of deficiency is made by the clinician, taking into account factors that affect sexual functioning, such as age and general and sociocultural contexts of the individual’s life.
Some men, fixated at the phallic stage of development, are fearful of the vagina and believe they will be castrated if they approach it. Freud called this concept vagina dentata. He theorized that men avoid contact with the vagina when they unconsciously believe that the vagina has teeth. Lack of desire can also result from chronic stress, anxiety, or depression.

The sexual dysfunction is not better explained by a nonsexual mental disorder or as a consequence of severe relationship distress (e.g., partner violence) or other significant stressors and is not attributable to the effects of a substance/medication or another medical condition

Note: Although the diagnosis of premature (early) ejaculation may be applied to individuals engaged in nonvaginal sexual activities, specific duration criteria have not been established for these activities.
Antipsychotic decrease dopaminergic transmission which decrease libido but may increase prolactin level via negative feedback
Alcohol increased libido after drinking small amounts of alcohol. The long-term use of alcohol reduces the ability of the liver to metabolize estrogenic compounds. In men, that produces signs of feminization (such as gynecomastia as a result of testicular atrophy).
Reboxetine is a selective noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor (NaRI)
Clomipramine has been reported to increase sex drive in some persons. Selegiline, a selective MAO type B (MAOB ) inhibitor, and bupropion have also been reported to increase sex drive, possibly by dopaminergic activity and increased production of norepinephrine
The keystone of the program is the roundtable session in which a male and female therapy team clarifies, discusses, and works through problems with the couple.
Vaginismus is a condition in which involuntary muscle spasm interferes with vaginal intercourse or other penetration of the vagina.
the woman forcefully squeezes the coronal ridge of the glans, the erection is diminished, and ejaculation is inhibited. The exercise program eventually raises the threshold of the sensation of ejaculatory inevitability and allows the man to focus on sensations of arousal without anxiety and develop confidence in his sexual performance.
Delayed ejaculation is managed initially by extravaginal ejaculation and then by gradual vaginal entry after stimulation to a point near ejaculation.
Stop start technique -just prior to ejaculation, wait until the level of arousal has diminished and then start again
This shift in focus allows patients to become immersed in the pleasure of the experience and remove themselves from self-judgment and performance anxiety.
If your disease causes an inflow type of erectile dysfunction, over time or when you present to our office for the first evaluation, the vasodilator drugs may not be able to dilate the arteries feeding the erectile bodies.
Sildenafil is a nitric oxide enhancer that facilitates the inflow of blood to the penis necessary for an erection. The drug takes effect about 1 hour after ingestion, and its effect can last up to 4 hours. Sildenafil is not effective in the absence of sexual stimulation. The most common adverse events associated with its use are headaches, flushing, and dyspepsia. The use of sildenafil is contraindicated for persons taking organic nitrates. The concomitant action of the two drugs can result in large, sudden, and sometimes fatal drops in systemic blood pressure.
Women may experience virilizing effects with andrigen, some of which are irreversible (e.g., deepening of the voice).
