Female sexual dysfunction (FSD) is a subjective dissatisfaction, resulting in significant distress, with the level or nature of sexual activity.
The Diagnosis and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders fifth edition (DSM-5) categorizes FSD into three medically significant types:
For each diagnosis the disorder is experienced at least 75% of the time for at least six months (except for medication-induced FSD), resulting in significant distress.
FSD can be lifelong or acquired, and generalized or situational.
Exclusion criteria include nonsexual mental disorder, severe relationship distress (e.g., partner violence) and other significant stressors.
The three types, some or all of which may be present, are:
1. Sexual interest/arousal disorder
This is defined as reduced or absent sexual interest, responsiveness, erotic thoughts and sexual pleasure.
2. Female orgasmic disorder (absence, infrequency, reduction, delay of orgasm):
Lifelong anorgasmia may suggest unfamiliarity or discomfort with self-stimulation or sexual communication with her partner.
3. Genito-pelvic pain/penetration disorder (problem in vaginal penetration, marked vulvovaginal or pelvic pain during penetration, fear or anxiety about pain in anticipation of, during, or after penetration, and tightening or tensing of pelvic floor muscles during attempted penetration):
Many women have problems with sexual function at some point.
Female sexual dysfunction can happen at any stage of life.
It can be life-long or be acquired later in life.
It can happen only in certain sexual situations or in all sexual situations.
The sexual response cycle has four phases:
1. Excitement,
2. Plateau,
3. Orgasm, and
4. Resolution.

Psychological:
