44 FEMALE SEXUAL AROUSAL DISORDER

45 FEMALE SEXUAL AROUSAL DISORDER SUBJECTIVE VS. OBJECTIVE SUBJECTIVE REFERS TO A WOMAN S PERCEPTION REGARDING HER GENITAL RESPONSE OBJECTIVE REFERS TO THE PHYSIOLOGIC GENITAL AROUSAL THAT OCCURS SUCH AS VAGINAL LUBRICATION AND VASOCONGESTION LOW CONCORDANCE

46 FSAD LOW CONCORDANCE VAGINAL PHOTPLETHYSMOGRAPHY EXTERNAL GENITALIA

47 FSAD ASSESSMENT OF SUBJECTIVE AROUSAL HOW OFTEN DO YOU NOTICE YOURSELF BEING SEXUALLY AROUSED? WHAT SITUATITONS HELP YOU FEEL EXCITED? DO YOU HAVE SEXUAL FANTASIES? IS THERE A CERTAIN SCENARIO IN A FANTASY THAT AROUSES YOU? HOW EASY IS IT TO GET AROUSED WITH YOUR CURRENT PARTNER?

48 FSAD ASSESSMENT OF SUBJECTIVE AROUSAL WHAT SENSATIONS DO YOU NOTICE IN YOUR GENITAL AREA WHEN YOU GET EXCITED? DO YOU HAVE EROTIC DREAMS? DO YOU BELIEVE YOUR SEXUAL EXCITEMENT IS HEALTHY? WHAT DO YOU THINK IS INTERFERING WITH YOUR AROUSAL?

49 FSAD PSYCHOSOCIAL FACTORS DISTRACTIONS STRESS ATTACHMENT AND MOOD DISORDER AGING AND MENOPAUSE CULTURAL /RELIGIOUS FACTORS RELATIONSHIP ISSUES SEXUAL TRAUMA

50 FSAD TREATMENTS HORMONAL THERAPY TESTOSTERONE IMPROVES SEXUAL AROUSAL AND DESIRE DIRECT EFFECT ON VAGINA AND GENITAL STRUCTURES INDEPENDENT OF ESTROGEN NO APRROVED FORMULATION FOR WOMEN SERUM LEVELS DO NOT NECESSARILY CORRELATE WITH EFFECT

51 TIBOLONE FSAD TREATMENT HORMONAL THERAPY SELECTIVE TISSUE ESTROGENIC ACTIVITY REGULATOR ENHANCES MOOD, LIBIDO, AROUSAL ACTS LIKE ESTROGEN ON BRAIN,VAGINA AND BONE BUT NOT ON BREAST,UTERUS 19 NORTESTOSTERONE DERIVATIVE METABOLIZED INTO 3 METABOLITES 2 WHICH ARE ESTROGENIC 1 PROGESTIONAL AND ANDROGENIC EFFECT

52 FSAD TREATMENT SO WHY DO WE NOT USE TIBOLONE?

53 FSAD TREATMENT BECAUSE AS WITH SO MANY OTHER DRUGS FOR FSD, IT IS NOT APPROVED BY THE FDA FOR DISTRIBUTION IN THE U.S.

54 FSAD TREATMENT NON-HORMONAL THERAPY PHOSPHODIESTERASE TYPE 5 INHIBITORS INCREASE BLOOD FLOW TO CLITORIS AND VAGINA INCREASES AROUSAL?? DATA LACKING IN EFFICACY MAYBE SECONDARY TO DISCORDANCE BETWEEN SUBJECTIVE AND GENITAL AROUSAL INCREASES PHYSIOLOGIC BUT NOT SUBJECTIVE AROUSAL

55 PDE5i FSAD TREATMENT NON-HORMONAL MAY BE OF BENEFIT IN PREMENOPAUSAL WOMEN WITH MEDICAL CONDITIONS THAT EFFECT NEUROVASCULAR COMPONENTS TYPE 1 DM SPINAL CORD INJURIES MS SSRI USE

63 FOD GENERALLY ASSOCIATED WITH ONE OTHER FACTOR IN FSD RULED OUT IF BETTER EXPLAINED BY MEDICATION, ILLNESS, PARTNER

64 FOD PRIMARY ANORGASMIA SITUATIONAL ANORGASMIA

65 FOD VAGINAL VS. CLITORAL DSM-V DE-PATHOLIGIZED CLITORAL AND CONSIDERED A NORMAL VARIATION AT LEAST ONE THIRD OF POPULATION CANNOT EXPERIENCE VAGINAL ORGASM MOST CAN REACH ORGASM THROUGH MASTURBATION, ORGASM WITH PARTNERED ACTIVITY LESS CONSISTENT

66 FOD ASSESSMENT NATURE, ONSET, DURATION OTHER SEXUAL ISSUES DEGREE OF DISTRESS RELATIONSHIP ISSUES MASTURBATION GENERALIZED/SITUATIONAL PRIMARY/SECONDARY

67 FOD RISK FACTORS LOWER SOCIOECONOMIC CLASS POOR PHYSICAL HEALTH POOR MENTAL HEALTH RESTRICTIVE ATTITUDES AND BELIEFS LESS SEX EDUCATION PRIMARY YOUNGER LESS EXPERIENCE UNREALISTIC EXPECTATIONS SECONDARY ASK ABOUT CONDITIONS WHERE THEY WERE ORGASMIC RULE OUT CONTEXTUAL FACTORS, INADEQUATE PARTNER STIMULATION,PHYSIOLOGIC FACTORS

68 FOD TREATMENTS EDUCATION SEXUAL THERAPY DIRECTED MASTURBATION SENSATE FOCUS VIBRATORS EROTICA

69 FOD TREATMENTS PATHOPHYSIOLOGY CONTEXT OF AROUSAL AND DESIRE DISORDERS EFFERENT PART OF THE ORGASMIC REFLEX NORADRENERGIC, CHOLINERGIC ACTIVITY ENZYMATIC ACTION ON GUANOSINE MONOPHOSPHATE SYSTEM AFFERENT PART OF THE ORGASMIC REFLEX INCREASES INTENSITY OF STIMULUS INCREASES THE RECEPTIVITY OF GENITALIA BY INCREASING BLOOD FLOW AND STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY

70 FOD TREATMENTS PDE 5i MIXED RESULTS PHYSIOLOGIC STUDIES SHOW INCREASE VASOCONGESTION SYSTEMIC ESTROGEN/TESTOSTERONE INCREASES AROUSAL, DESIRE,ORGASM IN WOMEN WITH OOPHERECTOMY RECEPTIVE CNS EFFECTS,VVA IMPROVEMENT, EXCITATORY EFFECT OF TESTOSTERONE ON LIMBIC SYSTEM TIBOLONE

71 FOD TREATMENTS CONTEXT OF SUFFICIENT AROUSAL FEW STUDIES DESCRIBED AS A STOP IN THE INCREASING INTENSITY OF AROUSAL TOWARD ORGASM GOAL- INTENSIFY THE STIMULATION IN STRENGTH, FREQUENCY

72 FOD TREATMENT OXYTOCIN FACILTATES MUSCLE CONTRACTION EROTICA FIERA EROS VIBRATORS

73 CONCLUSION ACKNOWLEDGE THAT SEXUAL DYSFUNCTION CAUSES SIGNIFICANT DISTRESS AND IS NOT A LIFESTYLE ISSUE REALIZE THAT WE MUST UTILIZE BIOPSYCHOSOCIAL APPROACH TO DEAL WITH FSD MUST HAVE DISCUSSIONS WITH OUR PATIENTS REGARDING FSD
