- Abstract
The article titled "Dyspareunia: From Concept to Care" discusses the condition of dyspareunia, which refers to genitopelvic pain experienced during sexual activity. The article highlights that dyspareunia is a common problem, with studies showing that 3 out of 4 women have experienced it at least once, and 10% to 20% of women experience it chronically. While men can also experience dyspareunia, it is more prevalent in women. The article emphasizes the need for accurate diagnosis and effective therapy for dyspareunia, considering various causes and treatments, including surgical interventions, hormone manipulation, and energy-based therapies. It also discusses the importance of addressing the central nervous system's role in dyspareunia and exploring treatments that target areas outside the genitalia and true pelvis.
