title: Developing treatments for female sexual dysfunction.
abstract: Female sexual dysfunction (FSD) is a term that encompasses a collection of sexual disorders that can affect women throughout their adult life. FSD has multiple causes, with physiological,psychological, and social determinants.1 The complexity of the female sexual response with overlapping subjective and physiological components and the potential presence of sexual comorbidities present unique challenges for the design and conduct of randomized, controlled clinical studies.
