Sexual Arousal Problems in Women
Sexual arousal is manifested as increased vaginal lubrication and blood flow to the genitals, especially the labia, clitoris and vagina. A reduced amount of vaginal lubrication is a symptom of decreased sexual arousal in women. At this time, there are no approved drug treatments for low sexual desire. However:
• If menopause is the cause, then hormone replacement can help.
• Lubricating creams are useful for all women.
• Behavioral therapy is another way to help increase sexual arousal.
• Studies indicate that testosterone can increase sexual desire in women where the cause is due to the surgical removal of their ovaries. But, continual treatment with testosterone has side effects and may lead to development of masculine characteristics.
• In some women, early childhood trauma may interfere with sexual function. Here, as well as in sexual abuse cases, psychotherapy can help.
Note: In men, it is usually erectile dysfunction (ED) that is the root of the cause for diminished libido (sexual desire). ED can occur due to a variety of reasons, eg. age, trauma, side effect of drugs like anti depressants and anti hypertensives, serious relationship problems with partner or even due to latent homosexuality tendencies.
