TYPES OF PROBLEMS

Our sex therapists in London deal with the range of sex problems in therapy.  There are several major sexual dysfunctions. Those in males are:

• Erectile dysfunction (inability to get or sustain a strong enough penile erection for sexual intercourse);
• retarded ejaculation (inability to reach a climax in sex easily - or at all);
• sexual addiction;
• loss or reduction of the sex drive; and
• sexual aversion (a very strong dislike for particular aspects of sex, often leading to avoidance of sex altogether).

Among females, the main problems are:

• Lack of physiological responsiveness (lack of lubrication, and/or lack of the expansion of the vaginal canal when aroused);
• anorgasmia (inability or difficulty to reach a climax);
• loss or reduction of the sex drive; vaginismus (tightening of the muscles surrounding the vagina when sexual intercourse is attempted);
• dyspareunia (intense pain in sexual intercourse); and
• sexual addiction.
