Sexuelle Funktionsstörungen in der therapeutischen Praxis

Abstract
Sexual dysfunction remains a common condition and has been on the rise in men since around 2005. Up to four generations present themselves in the practices. The text gives a brief outline of important socio-cultural developments that correlate with the therapeutic developments: 1. ICD-10 still differentiates between organic versus psychological sexual dysfunctions, which is dropped in ICD-11 in favor of an etiological classifica- tion. 2. Human rights are given more importance in the newer diagnostic manuals. 3. On the one hand, the biopsychosocial model of sexuality is undisputed. Nevertheless, with medical- ization, especially for erectile dysfunction, biological factors are overestimated, which results in unsuccessful treatments with PDE-5 inhibitors. Conclusion: Further research is necessary; available sex-medi- cal findings must be included in the therapeutic training cur- ricula – being able to draw up a sexual anamnesis is still not a matter of course.
