Abstract
During the last decade an increasing number of papers have been published on low sexual desire (LSD). The purpose of this paper is to highlight some important issues related to LSD and critically examine what has been reported in the literature. Problems related to assessment and treatment are presented. The author suggests that research is needed on the characteristics of the subjects suffering from LSD to have a better understanding of this complex sexual problem and to develop effective methods of assessment and treatment.Keywords
