Understanding Sexual Dysfunction
Sexual dysfunction can affect individuals at any point in their life and is characterized by a disturbance in the desire, arousal, or orgasm that prevents the individual from enjoying sexual activity. Common forms of sexual dysfunction in women include decreased libido, inability to achieve orgasm, and discomfort or pain during intercourse. These issues can stem from a variety of physiological, psychological, and emotional factors.
Our Approach to Treatment
At West Nassau Wellness, our approach is holistic and patient-centered. We begin with a comprehensive evaluation to understand the underlying causes of your sexual dysfunction. This assessment includes a review of your medical history, current health conditions, medications, and lifestyle factors.
Treatment Options
Based on the evaluation, Nicole will develop a personalized treatment plan that may include one or more of the following options:
​
-
Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT): For women, hormonal imbalances can significantly impact sexual function. HRT can help balance hormones and alleviate symptoms like vaginal dryness and loss of libido, particularly during menopause.
-
Prescription Medications: We can prescribe medications that specifically target sexual dysfunction, such as those that enhance blood flow or adjust hormonal levels contributing to sexual health issues.
-
Counseling and Behavioral Therapy: Emotional and psychological factors play a significant role in sexual wellness. Counseling can help address mental health issues like anxiety and depression, which can contribute to sexual dysfunction. Behavioral therapy can also teach techniques to reduce stress and enhance intimacy.
-
Physical Therapy: For some conditions, such as pain during intercourse, physical therapy can be beneficial. Techniques may include pelvic floor exercises to strengthen the muscles around the pelvis.
