MENOPAUSE AND SEX

Journal Title: World Journal of Pharmaceutical and life sciences - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 1

Abstract

Sexual health is an important, but often neglected component of health care in menopausal women. The female sexual response is a complicated and dynamic process. Apart from involving multiple areas of the brain, from the brain stem, cerebral cortex, hypothalamus and amygdale it is influenced by physiologic, psychological, sociocultural, and interpersonal factors. The six domains of female sexual functions are desire, arousal, lubrication, orgasm, satisfaction and pain during sexual intercourse.
