Sexual Problems or Dysfunctions

Sexual dysfunctions affect millions of men and women worldwide. Most of them suffer in silence never seeking help. If you are one of them, you dont need to suffer any more, there are solutions to your problems.

There are three types of sexual problems classified in medicine books as psychological problems: sexual dysfunctions, paraphilia and gender identity disorders.

Sexual Dysfunctions

Sexual dysfunctions are all the problems that impede a person to have sex normally. There are nine types of sexual dysfunctions.

Male Sexual Dysfunctions

1. Inhibited sexual desire: Or Low sexual Desire Refers to the low level of interest in sex, where a person will not start nor respond to the desire of sexual activity with a partner.
2. Erectile dysfunction: The repeated inability to achieve and maintain an erection that is firm enough to have satisfactory sexual intercourse.
3. Premature ejaculation: The lack of control over the ejaculation reflex, hence a disorder of the orgasmic phase during sexual intercourse.
4. Delayed ejaculation: Known as the male orgasmic disorder, it is the inability or difficulty for a man to reach an orgasm or ejaculation after being aroused or during sex.

Female Sexual Dysfunctions

1. Inhibited sexual desire: Or Low sexual Desire Refers to the low level of interest in sex, where a person will not start nor respond to the desire of sexual activity with a partner.
2. Anorgasmia: Known as the female orgasmic disorder, it is the absence or persistent and recurrent delay of orgasm after a phase of normal sexual arousal.
3. Vaginismus: The inability to have intercourse due to the involuntary contraction of the muscles located in the lower third of the vagina.
4. Dyspareunia: Dyspareunia or coitalgia is painful sexual intercourse in both men and women. It ranges from postcoital vaginal irritation to serious pain. It is the pain or nuisance before, during or after sex.
5. Sexual aversion: Persistent conduct denoting fear, aversion, repulsion, evasion, anxiety or disgust to the idea of any sexual conduct, sometimes even at the mere thought of it. This sexual dysfunction is more frequent in women, occasionally in men.
6. Female sexual arousal disorder: Considered a consequence of the persistent or recurrent inability to obtain and maintain lubrication and tumescence in the arousal phase and until the end of sexual activity.

Gender Identity Disorders

A gender identity disorder is the desire to be of the opposite sex or to have the impression of being trapped in a body of the opposite sex. We refer to the people with this disorder as transsexuals.

Paraphilia

Paraphilia is a type of disorder characterized by the persistent and recurrent need of having sex using objects or any sexual behavior considered strange or harmful. Paraphilia includes exhibitionism, voyeurism, sex with animals and unfortunately, sex with children.
