At Shafer Plastic Surgery, we treat a number of issues affecting sexual health in New York City. The ability to embrace and appreciate our sexuality throughout our lives is referred to as sexual health. Sexual health is a vital aspect of one’s total well-being. Sexual dysfunction is a disorder that can occur at any stage of the sexual response cycle. It can be caused by physical difficulties and medical diseases such as heart disease and hormone abnormalities. Both men and women can suffer from sexual health issues. Sexual dysfunction keeps you from getting pleasure from sexual activities. People who want to address sexual health issues may need both surgical and non-invasive treatments.
Who Is Most Affected by Sexual Health Problems?
Sexual health issues can affect people of any age, but they are more common in people over 40; this is because these problems are generally linked to a loss in health that comes with aging. When sexual dysfunction affects younger people, it may be the result of stress, illness, medications, or mental concerns.
What Are the Symptoms of Sexual Health Problems?
Male sexual health problems include inability to establish or maintain a satisfactory erection for intercourse, absent or sluggish ejaculation despite adequate sexual stimulation, and inability to manage the time of ejaculation.
Inability to reach orgasm, insufficient vaginal lubrication prior to and during sexual intercourse, and diminished relaxation of the vaginal muscles to facilitate intercourse are all symptoms of sexual health issues in women.
In both men and women, other symptoms include a diminished interest in or desire for sex, a lack of sexual pleasure, and pain during intercourse.
