Female Sexual Dysfunction in Neurologic Disorders

Female Sexual Dysfunction (FSD) in neurologic disorders refers to challenges women may face with sexual desire, arousal, or satisfaction when affected by conditions like multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, or spinal cord injuries. Neurologic disorders can disrupt the nerves and brain areas responsible for sexual function, leading to decreased lubrication, difficulty reaching orgasm, or a reduced interest in sex. These issues can significantly impact relationships and overall quality of life. Understanding and addressing FSD in these contexts is essential for enhancing emotional and physical intimacy for affected women. Treatment options exist and often involve a multidisciplinary approach.
