Dysorgasmia in women is an infrequent reason for consulting a clinician. In this article, the authors describe the case of a woman with right-sided pelvic pain immediately after orgasm. Dysorgasmia is likely to negatively impact sexual health but is rarely discussed in medical literature. Furthermore, assessment and treatment guidelines for clinicians are currently lacking. Therefore, the authors conducted a literature review and created a preliminary assessment guide, considering both medical and gray literature. A brief flowchart was developed which can facilitate the assessment of dysorgasmia in women for clinicians and improve the quality of care for patients. Further research on the etiology and pathophysiology of dysorgasmia in women is warranted, as is a more proactive attitude of clinicians to discuss sexual health. More guidance on diagnosis and treatment is needed.

People with Behçet\'s Disease, as many individuals with chronic diseases, often face depression, anxiety, poor quality of life and sexual problems. In this study, it was aimed to evaluate depression, anxiety, and sexual dysfuntions in people with Behcet\'s Disease.
A total of 100 participants, 50 patients (29 female) and 50 healthy volunteers (28 female), participated in the study. Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), and International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) were administered to the participants.
Depression and sexual dysfunctions were significantly related with Behçet\'s Disease. In our study, all female participants with Behçet\'s Disease had problems in sexual functions. Erectile dysfunction was more frequent in participants with Behcet\'s. The results also showed that there is a significant relationship between depression and orgasmic function (p=0.004), sexual desire (p=0.028), sexual satisfaction (p=0.023), and general satisfaction (p=0.028). There was a significant difference between people with Behçet\'s Disease (10.54±6.45) and healthy group (7.36 ±6.13) in depression scores (p=0.009). Patients with systemic involvement and those with mucocutaneous involvement were found to be similar in terms of BDI and BAI scores (p>0.05).
Behçet\'s Disease was found to be a risk factor for depression and sexual dysfunctions.

BACKGROUND: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic disease with worldwide representation that impacts every domain of a patient´s life, extending to sexual and reproductive domains. The study characterized sexual health (SH) and reproductive health (RH) in Mexican RA outpatients and identified factors associated with impaired sexual function (ISF).
METHODS: From September 1, 2020-January 31, 2022, consecutive RA participants had semi-structured interviews focusing on their SH and RH biographies, and self-administered questionnaires were applied to assess patient-reported outcomes, including fatigue with the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue scale (FACIT-F). ISF was defined based on published cut-offs of the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) in males and the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) in females (≥1 sexual intercourse in the last four weeks was required for index scoring). Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to identify the factors associated with ISF.
RESULTS: There were 268 participants, and 246 (91.8%) were females. Participants had 13 years of disease duration. Among females, 151 (61.4%) had FSFI applied, and the satisfaction domain was impaired in 111 (73.5%). Among males (N = 22), 17 (77.3%) had IIEF applied, and erectile dysfunction was present in 5 (29.4%). Almost half of the participants denied using a family planning method, were in their 50s, and receiving teratogenic drugs; 89.7% of the participants had children. ISF was detected in 94 (62.3%) females and 3 (17.6%) males. Male sex (aOR: 0.07, 95%CI: 0.01-0.36, p = 0.001), FACIT-F score (aOR: 0.96, 95%CI: 0.92-1.00, p = 0.03), and cohabitation with the couple (aOR: 0.32, 95%CI: 0.11-0.96, p = 0.04) were associated with ISF.
CONCLUSIONS: We observed a disproportionate burden of ISF among women with RA compared to male participants. Male sex, lesser fatigue, and cohabitation with the couple were protective against ISF. Regardless of the prevalent use of teratogenic medications, contraceptive use was suboptimal among the participants.

BACKGROUND: Pregnancy is associated with physical, psychological, hormonal, and social alterations that may lead to detrimental effects on sexual function and psychological well-being. This study sought to examine sexual function and psychosocial well-being of pregnant women in Somalia in comparison with their non-pregnant counterparts.
METHODS: We enrolled 487 consecutive women in monogamous marriages. Data included maternal age, gravida, parity, gestational week, education status of wives and husbands, and residence area. The participants completed the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) and the Brief Symptom Inventory-18 (BSI-18).
RESULTS: Of 487 women, 241 were pregnant, and 246 were non-pregnant. The overall incidence of sexual dysfunction was 57.7%, being 64.0% for pregnant and 51.6% for non-pregnant women (p = 0.010). Pregnant women exhibited significantly lower FSFI scores on desire, arousal, lubrication, and orgasm, and significantly higher total BSI, anxiety, depression and somatization scores. The frequencies of sexual dysfunction were 57.9%, 45.9%, and 78.9% during the first, second, and third trimesters, respectively (p = 0.0001). As compared with the first and second trimesters, and non-pregnancy, the third trimester of pregnancy was associated with a significantly lower total FSFI score and significantly decreased levels of desire, arousal, lubrication, and orgasm, as well as a significantly higher total BSI score and a significantly increased level of anxiety. In regression analysis, pregnancy was inversely associated with sexual function parameters of desire, arousal, lubrication, and orgasm, and with BSI parameters of depression, anxiety and somatization.
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that pregnant women experience considerable sexual and psychosocial deterioration as compared with their non-pregnant counterparts.

OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of a modified behavioral treatment (MBT) on functional anejaculation and analyze the factors influencing the therapeutic efficacy.
METHODS: We enrolled in this study 59 men aged 24－45 years visiting the Andrology Clinic of Shanghai First Maternity and Infant Hospital from August 2019 to May 2021 and complaining of aejaculation in sexual intercourse but normally ejaculating during masturbation. Thirty-nine of the patients underwent conventional behavioral treatment (the CBT group) and the other 20 received MBT, namely, changing the masturbation method combined with audiovisual stimulation during sexual intercourse (the MBT group). We compared the therapeutic effects between the two groups of patients, and analyzed the correlation of the outcomes of MBT with age, abstinence duration, use of audiovisual stimulation, change of the sexual position, mean bilateral testis volume and sex hormone levels.
RESULTS: After treatment, 22 (37.29%) of the patients achieved successful ejaculation at least once in sexual intercourse, 11 (55.00%) in the MBT group, and the other 11 (28.21) in the CBT group, with a significantly higher effectiveness rate in the former than in the latter (P<0.05). The effectiveness rate was significantly correlated to the method of standing-position masturbation plus sexual intercourse and reduction in the frequency of masturbation among various strategies of behavioral treatment (P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONS: MBT has a certain effect on functional anejaculation, and targeting the previous events of the patient is the key to the therapeutic efficacy. Further exploration of more effective strategies of behavioral treatment will become the trend of development in the management of functional anejaculation.

The seminal vesicle is an important accessory gland of the male reproductive system. In the past, some scholars focused more on its role in the fertilization process and neglected its relationship with male sexual function. Researches show that the seminal vesicle is involved in multiple processes such as sexual desire, penile erection, and ejaculation. Treatment of sexual dysfunction by medication targeting the seminal vesicle has achieved certain therapeutic effects. This article discusses the relationship between the seminal vesicle and sexual function in terms of physiopathology, clinical study and basic research, hoping to provide some new ideas on the clinical diagnosis and treatment of sexual dysfunction.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical effect of sexual therapy combined with physical methods in the treatment of primary intravaginal anejaculation (PIAE) and its possible action mechanism.
METHODS: Ninety PIAE patients with anxiety symptoms were equally randomized into three groups and treated by sexual therapy combined with vacuum negative pressure hydro pneumatic / pneumatic bubble massage (group A), sexual therapy (group B) or (vacuum negative pressure hydro pneumatic / pneumatic bubble massage (group C). After 15 cycles of treatment, the therapeutic effects were compared among the three groups of patients.
RESULTS: The effectiveness rates in groups A, B and C were 86.67%, 46.67% and 30.00%, respectively, with statistically significant differences in the total effectiveness rate, the effective rate of the treatment of anxiety symptoms of the patients and their partners, and the effectiveness rate of the treatment of idiosyncratic masturbation (P<0.05). Pairwise comparison showed that the total effectiveness rate was dramatically higher in group A than in groups B and C (P<0.01), with no statistically significant difference between the latter two groups (P>0.05), that the effectiveness rate of the treatment of anxiety symptoms of the patients and sexual partners was remarkably higher in groups A and B than in C (P<0.01), with no statistically significant difference between the former two groups (P>0.05), and that the effectiveness rate of the treatment of idiosyncratic masturbation was significantly higher in group A than in B and C (P< 0.01), with no statistically significant difference between the latter two (P>0.05).
CONCLUSIONS: PIAE is often accompanied by negative psychological state of the patients and their partners and idiosyncratic masturbation, which responds well to sexual therapy combined with vacuum negative pressure hydro pneumatic / pneumatic bubble massage.

UNASSIGNED: The purpose of this study was to analyze the available evidence regarding the efficacy of iPDE5 in the treatment of female sexual dysfunction (FSD).
UNASSIGNED: A comprehensive literature search was conducted in March 2023 through the main scientific databases.
UNASSIGNED: A total of 53 articles were identified, out of which, 6 met the predefined inclusion criteria. All of these were randomized controlled trials. Among the included studies, 4 demonstrated the effectiveness of sildenafil in improving sexual response and addressing FSD, while 2 studies failed to establish its efficacy in this context.
UNASSIGNED: Overall, the efficacy of sildenafil in the treatment of FSD remains controversial and inconclusive based on the available evidence. Further research is necessary to clarify the therapeutic potential of iPDE5 in addressing FSD and to better understand the factors that influence treatment outcomes.
