title: Hypoactive sexual desire.
abstract: Hypoactive sexual desire is an ubiquitous and challenging disorder that is often associated with other psychiatric or medical conditions. Multiple etiologic determinants have been associated with the disorder, and the role of systemic and interpersonal factors have been emphasized. Treatment interventions have varied widely, including hormonal, pharmacologic, and psychological interventions. There is a paucity of controlled outcome research, and it is uncertain which patients are most likely to benefit from treatment.
