Female sexual dysfunction is said to be much more complex than the sexual dysfunction which a man can face. They say it is an amalgamation of many factors and it makes it quite complicated to treat. The factors that may promote the risk of female sexual dysfunction can be classified into three main titles, which are: physiological, psychological and behavioral.
