About Sexual Dysfunction

Sexual dysfunction is not a single procedure but a broad medical condition encompassing persistent problems during any phase of the sexual response cycle (desire, arousal, orgasm, resolution) that cause distress. An Internal Medicine specialist provides comprehensive evaluation and management, focusing on identifying underlying medical causes. This involves a detailed medical history, physical examination, and targeted laboratory tests to diagnose conditions like hormonal imbalances (e.g., low testosterone, thyroid disorders), cardiovascular disease, diabetes, neurological issues, or medication side effects. Treatment is personalized and may include lifestyle modifications, medication management, hormone therapy, or referrals to specialists like urologists or endocrinologists. The goal is to restore sexual health by addressing the root physiological or medical contributors.
