  • Internal Medicine

Background:

  • Sexual dysfunction prevalence rises with age.
  • Physiological changes associated with aging impact sexual function.
  • Chronic diseases and medications are significant contributing factors to sexual dysfunction in older populations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the increasing incidence of sexual dysfunction in aging individuals.
  • To underscore the multifactorial nature of age-related sexual dysfunction.
  • To emphasize the importance of patient-centered investigation and treatment.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing literature on aging and sexual health.
  • Analysis of factors contributing to sexual dysfunction.

    • Main Results:

    • Age is a primary correlate of sexual dysfunction.
    • Comorbidities and polypharmacy exacerbate sexual dysfunction.
    • Individualized treatment approaches are crucial.

    Conclusions:

    • Sexual dysfunction is a common yet often overlooked aspect of aging.
    • A comprehensive approach considering physiological, psychological, and social factors is necessary.
    • Treatment should be tailored to patient preferences and circumstances for optimal outcomes.
