The Complexity of Male Sexual Desire?

Much debate and controversy has ensued regarding the contentious and subjective definition, diagnosis, measurement and treatment of desire problems for both men and women as various editions of the Diagnostic Statistical Manual (DSM) have been published (DSM V edition).

Update on the Management of Premature Ejaculation

Premature ejaculation (PE) is a common male sexual disorder which is associated with substantial personal and interpersonal negative psychological consequences and reduced quality of life for both sufferer and partner. Reliable information on the prevalence of PE in the general male population is lacking. There is a substantial disparity between the incidence of PE in epidemiological studies which rely upon either patient self-report of PE and/or inconsistent and poorly validated definitions of PE and that suggested by community based stopwatch studies of the intravaginal ejaculation latency time (IELT).

The current study was designed to determine how the prevalence estimates of women's sexual desire problems vary according to the diagnostic criteria adopted to define such problems.
