Abstract:

Depending on the problem, medicine, psychotherapy or relation therapy is used.

Question:

What therapies exist for sexual problems?

Answer:

Every problem has various solutions; treatments also differ per person. The sexologist, the urologist and the gynaecologist determine the treatment based on the problems. Physical causes are treated with medicines or other means, and sometimes with psychological treatments. Psychological causes are managed by means of psychological treatments (see also the question about therapy) and in cases of problems in relational terms, relation therapy is often suggested. The partner is usually involved in the treatment of sexual problems.
