[Diagnosis and therapy of sexual disorders. An interdisciplinary challenge].
In view of the changes in moral values as a consequence of sexual liberation, the high incidence of sexual dysfunction and the existence of effective pharmacological treatment for erectile dysfunction, sexual disorders should be a common issue in the medical practice. This is, however, not the case. A reason could be that physicians are not prepared to talk about sexuality in a clinical setting. Moreover, clinical practice reveals that to focus simply on "fixing the function" could fail the needs of the patient and his or her partner.
