Approach and management to patients with neurological disorders reporting sexual dysfunction.
Sexual difficulties are common in patients with neurological disorders, and different domains of sexual function-desire, arousal, orgasm, and ejaculation-can be affected. Advances in the past 7 years in structural and functional neuroimaging have contributed to a greater understanding of the neural pathways involved in the regulation of sexual functions in health and disease, and this increased knowledge might help with development of future therapeutic strategies. ⋯ PDE5A inhibitors and intracavernosal injections of the prostaglandin alprostadil are effective for treating erectile dysfunction; however, options for managing other domains of sexual dysfunction in men and women remain poor. Research into different domains of sexual dysfunction is likely to lead to additional therapeutic strategies in the future.
