SEXUAL PROBLEM

SEXUAL PROBLEM

 Sexual problems may be classified as physiological,


psychological, and social in origin.
PHYSIOLOGICAL PROBLEMS
Is the least among the three categories. Only a small number of people suffer from disease
that are due to abnormal development of the genitalia or that neurophysiology controlling
sexual response

 Some common Physiological Problems


• vaginal infections
• retroverted uteri
• prostatitis
• adrenal tumors
• diabetes
• senile changes of the vagina
• cardiovascular problems
PSYCHOLOGICAL PROBLEMS

Comprise by far the largest category. It was usually caused by


socially induced inhibition, maladaptive attitudes, ignorance and
sexual myths held by society.

 Example of sexual myths


 rapid erection
 prolonged sex
 simultaneous orgasm
 PREMATURE EMISSION OF SEMEN

A common problem, especially for young males


Sometimes this is not the consequences of any psychological
problem but natural result of excessive tension in a male who has
been sexually deprived
 ERECTILE IMPOTENCE

Psychological origin in males under 40; in order males physical


causes are more often involved in which the fear of being impotent
causes impotence

• In many cases, the afflicted males is simply caught up in a self-


perpetuating problem that can be solved only by achieving a
successful act of coitus
• Other cases, maybe result of disinterest in the sexual partner,
fatigue and distractions
 EJACULATORY IMPOTENCE

 which results from the inability to ejaculate in coitus, is


uncommon and usually of psychogenic origin.
 it appears to be associated with ideas of contamination or with
memories of traumatic experiences
 occasional ejaculation inability can be possibly expected in older
men or in any male who has exceeded his sexual capacity
 VAGINISMUS

 A strong spasm of the pelvic musculature constricting the


female reproductive organ so that penetration is painful or
impossible
 It can due to anti-sexual conditioning, or psychological trauma
that serves unconscious defense against coitus
 It can be treated by psychotherapy and by gradually dilating the
female reproductive organ with increasingly large cylinder
SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED DISEASES
SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED DISEASES
 are infections transmitted from an infected person to an uninfected person through
sexual contact
 can be causes by bacteria, viruses or parasites

Example of STDs
 Gonorrhea
 Genital Herpes
 Human Papillomavirus Infection
 Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)
 Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS)
 Chlamydia
 Syphilis
STDs are a Significant Global Health Priority

because of its overwhelming impact on women and in infants and their inter-
relationship with HIV and AIDS.
 STDs and HIV are associated with biological interactions for both infections may
occur in the same populations
 STDs can increase the risk of getting transmitted HIV as well as modify the way the
disease development
1. CHLAMYDIA
 In 2016, a total of 1,598,354 cases of Chlamydia Trachomatis infection were reported to
the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), making it the most common
notifiable condition in the United States.
 This case count corresponds to a rate of 497.3 cases per 100,000 population, an increase of
4.7% compared with the rate in 2015.
 The rate of chlamydia are highest among adolescent and young adult females, the
population targeted for routine chlamydia screening
2. GONORRHEA
 In 2016, 468,514 gonorrhea cases were reported for a rate of 145.8 cases per 100.000
population, an increase of 18.5% from 2015
 The ,magnitude of the increase among men suggests either increased transmission or
increases case ascertainment (e.g, through increased extra-genital screening)
 Antimicrobial resistance remains an important consideration in the treatment of gonorrhea
3. SYPHILIS
In 2016, 27,814 Primary and Secondary (P&S) syphilis cases were reported, representing a
national rate of 8.7 cases per 100,000 population and a 17.6% increase from 2015
From 2015 to 2016, the P&S syphilis rate increased among both men and women in every
region of the country; overall the rate increased 14.7% among men and 35.7% among
women
In 2016, rates were highest among African Americans (23.3 per 100,000 population) and
Native Hawaiian
Other Pacific Islanders (13.9 per 100,000 population; however, rates increased among all
racial and ethnic groups in 2012 to 2016.
4. CHANROID

Is caused by infection with the bacterium Haemophilus ducreyi


Clinical manifestations include genital ulcers and inguinal lymphadenopathy or buboes.
5. HUMAN PAPILLOMAVIRUS
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is the most common sexually transmitted infection in the
United States
Over 40 distinct HPV types can infect the genital tract; although most infection are
asymptomatic appear to resolve spontaneously within a few years, the prevalence of genital
infection with any HPV type was 42.5% among United States adults aged 18 to 59 years
during 2013 to 2014
6. HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS
Herpes simplex virus (HSV) is among the most prevalent of sexual transmitted
infections
Although most infections are subclinical, clinical manifestations are characterized
by recurrent, painful genital and/or anal lesions
Most genital HSV infections in the United States are caused by HSV type 2 (HSV-
2), while HSV type 1 (HSV-1) infections are typically orolabial and acquired during
childhood.
7. TRICHOMONAS VAGINALIS
Trichomonas vaginalis is a common sexually transmitted protozoal infection
associated with adverse health outcomes such as preterm birth and symptomatic
vaginitis
It is not a nationally reportable condition, and trend data are limited to estimates of
initial physician office visits for this condition
Visits appear to be fairly stable since the 1990s; the number of initial visits for
Trichomonas vaginalis infection in 2015 was 139,000
