I. Efficacy of diverse psychological treatments o psychological, psychosocial, cognitive behavioural, mindfulness training, and sex therapy interventions II. Exploring multivariate factors contributing to women’s sexual problems

In 2010, The New View Campaign compiled 27 counter-narratives to present evidence that challenged the perceived value and need for Flibanserin, a drug proposed to treat ‘Hypoactive sexual desire disorder,’ a subset of ‘Female Sexual Dysfunction.’ The counter-narratives were published studies that highlighted the social, cultural, psychological, and interpersonal factors at the core of women’s sexual dissatisfactions and treatment needs. Since 2010, researchers have continued to produce overwhelming evidence that sexual problems are linked to contextual and relational factors far more than to physiological shortcomings. Below are another 34 counter-narratives to the medicalized view of women’s sexual problems. These abstracts extend the 2010 bibliography, representing 20102014 research published in well-respected journals without industry conflicts of interest. These studies • explore the myriad traditions of safe and effective non-pharmaceutical treatments for women’s sexual difficulties, • examine the complex workings of female sexuality as rooted in health, psychology, education, and policy, • acknowledge the abundant promises and negative outcomes that a sexual pharmaceutical can yield.
