Dear Colleagues,
According to recent research cited in a study on sexual dysfunction
in the United States, sexual dysfunctions are
highly prevalent in both sexes, ranging from 10% to 52% of men
and 25% to 63% of women. Today's newsletter focuses on this
important health issue.

1. AMERICAN FAMILY PHYSICIAN
Female Sexual Dysfunction: Evaluation and Treatment
Individually, sexuality incorporates family, societal and
religious beliefs, and is altered with aging, health status and
personal experience. In addition, sexual activity incorporates
interpersonal relationships, each partner bringing unique attitudes,
needs and responses into the coupling. A breakdown in any of these
areas may lead to sexual dysfunction.
