Sexual Dysfunctions

Sexual dysfunctions are disorders related to a particular phase of the sexual response cycle. Sexual problems are often the result of simple learned behaviors and associations we make over years of conditioning. One common, yet embarrassing sexual dysfunction seen in both males and females is male/female orgasmic disorder. The definition is vague, and can be applied to dysfunctions experienced by either sex. Orgasmic disorder is defined as the persistent or recurrent delay in, or absence of, orgasm following a normal sexual excitement phase. The diagnosis of orgasmic disorder on the other hand, does slightly vary by gender. For women the diagnosis should be based on the clinician's judgment that the woman's orgasmic capacity is less than
The experimenters did discover that "minimal contact therapy was found to be as effective as full contact therapy," in fact there are even indications that "minimal contact treatment may provide superior results." The better results from MCT can best explained by the female participants increased self-esteem, from achieving orgasm. The pointing being that, with the lessened therapist intervention the participant may have a attributed her sense of achievement more to her own actions and less to that of the
The presence of exercise did produce a perceived difference between orgasmic and anorgasmic woman. When the participants engaged in exercise, the orgasmic woman showed an increase in both VPA and VBV response while viewing the erotic film, while the anorgasmic participants had quite a different response. Not only did there VPA not increase, it actually significantly decreased while their VBV showed no clear response to the erotic film. The authors stated that although their experiment does leave room for further research to be conducted, they were able to make the credible "unexpected finding that low sexual desire and anorgasmic participants differed in their physiological sexual responses to SNS activation strongly suggests that future research on sexually dysfunctional women should consider low sexual desire and anorgasmic women as separate experimental groups." This article was not as directly related as the previous two, but did conclude some intriguing evidence that could absolutely spur further questioning. The fact that anorgasmic women, which is my primary subject focus, should not be included in similar categories as woman who have low sexual arousal. Bases on the finding of this experiment, the physiological reactions of these two groups of woman differed greatly when exposed to the same laboratory setting, and I conclude that is a bit of data future human sex
