Research has shown that nearly 4 out of every 10 women suffer from sexual dysfunctions. Still, the medical community has not yet able o determine the causes responsible, and neither do they have any treatments available.
Furthermore, studies carried out by independent institutes have also revealed that about 40% of the women worldwide experience some levels of sexual dysfunction at some point of time.
Sexual dysfunction in women is a problematic and complex issue and therefore, opinions of health experts on the various causes and also their treatments vary considerably.
There is no denying of the fact that quite a number of women have been cured of these dysfunctions, however, health experts also advocate the claim that medication manufacturing companies are trying to turn the regular female sexual function to a sort of medical diagnosis in an attempt to be the first ones to manufacture a pill for the treatment of female impotence.
There was a survey conducted recently on more than 300 females, all of whom were suffering from sexual dysfunctions. This survey suggested that the women expected treatment which was aimed at meeting their psychological and physiological demands, rather than focusing on their present medical condition.
The researchers who took part in this survey claimed that more than 45% of the women were of the opinion that the sexual disorders that they were suffering from could be effectively treated with more compassion, understanding and further intimacy from their sexual partners, instead of consuming blue pills such as Viagra.
Interestingly, most of the women thought that once a female reaches middle-age, she starts emanating from ‘between her ears’, and not from ‘between her thighs’. Some thought, isn’t it!
Doctors have classified female impotence in four types:
§ The lack of sexual desire – This is also termed as Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder (HSDD). The main characteristics are complete lack of interest in sexual activities and also aversion to stimulation, sexual overtures and sexual activity. It has been noted that women suffering from HSDD rarely or even never fantasize or think about sex!
§ The lack of sexual arousal – This is medically termed as Female Sexual Arousal Disorder or FSAD. In simple terms, it can be defined as the inability of a woman to achieve or even progress through the ‘regular’ stages of sexual arousal. In this case, women do not show any interest in initiating sex and are also known to avoid sexual contact.
§ Experiencing pain or discomfort during sexual intercourse – This category has been further divided into two
§ Dyspareunia – this is defined as the experience of going through extreme pain or discomfort in the genital area, more specifically the vagina. This can be felt before, during or even after the intercourse.
§ Vaginismus – it is an involuntary contraction that takes place in the muscles of situated around the vagina. The result is difficulty or absolute impossibility of penetration during sexual intercourse.
§ The inability to achieve orgasm – Medically termed as the Female Orgasmic Disorder or FOD. This is referred to the inability in a woman to achieve her orgasm that may be caused due to sexual intercourse or arousal. As a matter of fact, orgasm in women is a learned response, as opposed to the inherent response in men.
Anorgasmia is defined as the inability to achieve an orgasm regardless of what the circumstances may be, and this affects about 5-10% of women globally. The possible causes of this are inexperience, lack of understanding of the female anatomy, certain inhibitions, cultural influences and also sexual trauma
