Female sexual problems

Skip Navigation

A sexual problem is something that keeps sex from being satisfying or positive. Female sexual problems include reduced desire or arousal, being unable to reach orgasm, or having pain during sex.

Most people have sexual problems at one time or another. For some, the problem is ongoing. A good treatment plan will look at what's causing the problem and help you learn to communicate better with your partner.
