Abstract
Studies that have reported the outcome of treatment of various sexual dysfunctions are reviewed. While the number of published studies is limited, the results are remarkably consistent. By use of a variety of techniques, the prognosis for successful treatment of primary orgasmic dysfunction in women and premature eiaculation in men is quite good. The treatment of secondary or situational orgasmic dysfunction is more dificult and results in much lower success rates. Variables that affect treatment outcome and implications for future research and treatment are discussed.This publication has 17 references indexed in Scilit:
