Sexual dysfunction

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Classification according to ICD-10
F52.- Sexual dysfunction not caused by any organic disorder or disease
ICD-10 online (WHO version 2019)

From a sexual dysfunction or sexual dysfunction (sexual dysfunction) "sexual functions and reactions disorders" is spoken in when individual claims to a fulfilling sexuality , so the person can not be reached under distress is. In addition to the disturbance of the sexual reaction (physical reaction), this definition also takes into account subjective experience as well as social and cultural ideas of sexuality. The term is used for disorders of sexual reactions, not for a "deviating sexual behavior" from a social norm that can be lived out happily.

A distinction is made on the one hand between primary (lifelong) and secondary (acquired), on the other hand between generalized (always present) and situational (only occurring in certain situations) sexual dysfunctions.

Sexual dysfunction can have psychological and physical causes.

ICD-10

The ICD-10 also indicates this fact. Nevertheless, “Sexual dysfunctions not caused by an organic disorder or illness” are summarized under F52 and only Dhat syndrome and the organic forms of erectile dysfunction , vaginismus and dyspareunia are separated from this.

Finally, F52 includes frigidity and sexual hypoactivity (see also asexuality ), sexual aversion and lack of sexual satisfaction with anhedonia , failure of genital reactions ( erectile dysfunction , psychogenic impotence and disorders of sexual arousal in women), orgasm disorders in men and women , ejaculatio praecox , non-organic vaginismus and non-organic dyspareunia. Satyriasis and nymphomania are also mentioned as increased sexual desire .

It has to be mentioned that the classification of the ICD-10 is partly in contradiction to other classifications. The terms satyriasis and nymphomania are no longer reflected in the technical language by sexologists , while urologists today often do without a clear separation of organic and psychological causes of erectile dysfunction due to the good response rates to the newer sexual enhancers sildenafil , vardenafil and tadalafil .
