Female Sexual Dysfunction IS A Real Disorder

By Dr. Erica Goodstone. Posted on Feb 16th 2011.

Sexologists and other health care professionals have debated if female sexual dysfunction exists.

By declaring that female sexual dysfunction is a real psychological disorder, requiring real research and treatment choices for women, ISSWSH is showing their commitment to the sexual well being of all women. The goal is not to increase the wealth of pharmaceutical companies or to waste the time of psychotherapists and marriage counselors. The goal is to encourage needed research to determine what works and what doesn't work for female sexual concerns. What has worked for men does not necessarily help women.

If you or a female you know has a sexual dysfunction, just realize that it IS real and it can be helped. But sometimes the real disorder is the particular relationship and when that breaks up, the disorder is gone.

By Dr. Erica Goodstone

"LOVE" is the most precious gift we can give to anyone at any time.
