Hypoactive sexual desire disorder in men has most frequently been considered as hypogonadism. Although testosterone supplementation in some cases may be an effective treatment, this may not always be the solution. Biological factors are important but don’t always explain the sexual response. Hypoactive sexual desire disorder in men is a problem that requires a bio-psychosocial management approach. Understanding the biological, psychological and relational aspects of a man’s desire will lead to a better selection of the treatment strategy. A sexologist needs to be able to have a basic understanding of the available biological treatment options and to provide psychosexual therapy.
Learning Objectives:
- To know the key aspects of the definition for hypoactive sexual desire in men
- Be familiar with the clinical presentation of hypoactive sexual desire disorder in men that is not secondary to another sexual dysfunction
- Know the most strongly associated biological, psychogenic, sexual and couple factors that explain hypoactive sexual desire in men
- Be familiar with the therapeutic options: medical and psychological
