Sexual Function

In most cases, yes. Effective oral medication exists, and where the underlying cause is hormonal or vascular, treating that cause helps too. ED is also worth investigating in its own right, because it can be an early marker of cardiovascular disease. Assessment finds the cause; treatment follows from there.

Usually not, and even when psychology plays a part, that does not make it less real or less treatable. The assessment checks the physical causes first: hormones, circulation, medication side effects and health conditions. Where anxiety or relationship strain contributes, a psychosexual referral is offered alongside, not instead of, medical care.

First, find the cause. Low desire in women can stem from hormonal shifts, medication such as some antidepressants and contraceptives, pain with sex, fatigue, mood, or relationship factors. Treatment is matched accordingly and may include hormonal treatment, a medication review, treating pain or dryness, and psychosexual support.

Often, yes. Common causes such as vaginal dryness, GSM after menopause, infections and pelvic floor tension all have specific treatments, from local oestrogen to pelvic physiotherapy referral. Painful sex is a medical symptom, not something to push through.

No. Regenerative options are only raised where they are clinically reasonable for you, and always after an eligibility consult. Most sexual function problems are managed well with medication, hormone treatment and targeted referrals.
