Sexual Dysfunction and the Elderly

چکیده
Sexual dysfunction can be defined as the inability to partake in or enjoy a sexual relationship with oneÕs partner as a result of underlying physical and/or psychological factors. Although there is an alteration in sexual response with aging, age is not a deterrent to enjoying and maintaining a normal, healthy sex life. The elderly are often subject to health problems, and their sexual activity can be affected by various illnesses, medications, and changes in lifestyle. It is important for the physician to become aware of the various types of sexual dysfunction in the elderly and to understand that treatment may involve addressing social as well as medical concerns.
