- Title
Female Sexual Dysfunction: Assessment and Treatment.
- Authors
Dahlen, Heather
- Abstract
Approximately 40% of women experience some type of sexual problem over their lifetimes (Kingsberg & Woodard, 2015). Female sexual dysfunction (FSD) affects almost half of the women in the United States, yet is underdiagnosed and undertreated. This article examines female sexuality from a historical perspective, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (American Psychiatric Association, 2013) terminology, and the assessment and treatment of FSD. Since women with urogenital signs and symptoms seek urological services, it is essential for urologic nurses and associates to familiarize themselves with how to empower women with FSD.
