There are countless causes of sexual dysfunction problems, but there are only four main categories that the disorder falls into.

Here is a list of all 4:

Physical causes, such as conditions which can lead to difficulties with sexual functionality

  • Urinary tract infections, an enlarged, or cancerous prostate gland
  • Cancer of the uterus or cervix
  • Heart disease and poor blood flow to the extremities including the genitals.
  • Hormone imbalances of the sex hormones – testosterone in men, and estrogen in women
  • Alcoholism, drug abuse, and heavy smoking
  • Psychological issues like anxiety, depression, and unresolved past trauma

 Arousal disorders

  • People suffering from this disorder find it very difficult to become properly aroused during sexual encounters. It occurs in both men and women, and happens in spite of increased foreplay.
  • The most common type of arousal disorder is erectile dysfunction in men, which makes it almost impossible to get an erection. A woman may not be aroused, but will still be able to partake in sex, while a man with ED cannot get an erection needed for sex.

Both men and women who have this disorder, may well be interested in a sexual encounter, but be unable to get any sort of physical satisfaction from it.

A complete lack of sexual desire

  • A complete disinterest in any form of sexual activity. This is known as low libido, mainly caused by low levels of testosterone and estrogen.
  • The lack of sexual desire may also be as a result of medical issues like high blood pressure, stress, anxiety, as well as the side effects of meds which may be prescribed for those complaints. This disorder can easily lead to relationship difficulties in a partnership.

Orgasm disorders

  • This disorder is more of a problem in women, although it can also be present in men. With women, stress, fatigue, hormonal changes, and low libido, can all lead to no orgasm, or at best, a delayed orgasm.
  • A man may experience premature ejaculation, or he might not be able to maintain an erection long enough to finish. A successful climax might begin to seem like an impossible dream.

Another common disorder is that of painful sex. This affects men and women for different reasons. However, if sex is painful in any way, visit the doctor for a diagnosis. It may be a medical issue which needs treatment to ease the symptoms.
