  • Lack of standardized terminology for sexual disorders complicates data interpretation.
  • There is a notable absence of data on female sexual functioning, both normal and disordered.

    • Conclusions:

    • Current evidence linking medications to sexual dysfunction is largely based on anecdotal reports and case studies.
    • Further high-quality, systematic research is needed to accurately assess medication-induced sexual side effects.
    • Future studies must address the significant data gap concerning female sexual health.
