Abstract:
Low libido is the most frequently reported sexual dysfunction. This is an important and complex problem with multiple causes. At present the interpretation of data on this topic remains a challenge, as the subject population is diverse and various tools are used in assessment. Coupled with this, several definitions are in use with differing emphasis on distress resulting from this state. Developments in the understanding of psychopharmacology are shedding light on the pathways involved in normal sexual response and these are being utilized in the development of treatments. This article reviews the current definitions, aetiology and treatment options and explores the recent developments in low libido in women.

The frequency and amplitude of GnRH pulses vary across the menstrual cycle, with faster pulses favoring LH release and slower pulses favoring FSH release.
