Populations who may experience female sexual dysfunction (FSD): • Abused • Perimenopausal • Pregnancy • Multiple sclerosis • Childhood sex abuse • Chemotherapy • Genital mutation • Post menopausal • Lack of sensitivity • Gynecological cancer • Radiation • Battered • Neurogenic disease • Sexual trauma • Spinal cord injury • Vascular disease • Post-hysterectomy • Post-partum (Brassil et. al, 2002)

  4. Statistics Different epidemiologic studies on FSD suggested that up to 49% of women experienced sexual dysfunction. Blümel JE, Castelo-Branco C et al. Menopause. 2004;11(1):78-81. Castelo-Branco C, Blumel JE, et al.J Obstet Gynaecol. 2003 Jul;23(4):426-30. TS represent < 0.03% General population Castelo-Branco C. Maturitas. 2014 Dec;79(4):471-5. Ros C & Castelo-Branco C. Gynecol Endocrinol. 2012 Sep;28(9):726-32. US population data revealed that 9.7 million women (50-74 y) self-report complaints of diminished vaginal lubrication, pain and discomfort with intercourse, decreased arousal, and difficulty achieving orgasm. Berman J et al. Urology. 1999;54(3):385-91

  5. Etiology “The etiologies of female sexual dysfunction affect a variety of populations and may be caused by psychological, emotional, or physiological reasons. Often, the etiology is multifactorial & interrelated.” Castelo-Branco C et al. Expert Opin Ther Patents. 2007;17(6):639-647

  6. Etiology: Psychological Causes As with most disorders, female sexual dysfunction can be caused and aggravated by psychological causes. • (Sexual or) Emotional Abuse • Depression • Relationship Issues • Stress • Self Esteem

  7. Turner’sSyndrome (TS) TS is the most common chromosomal abnormality in females, and affects one in 2500 live female births. This condition is more common in utero, affecting 1–2% of all conspectuses. TS is the result of the absence or the abnormality of the second sexual chromosome, in at least one cellular line.
