Diagnosis and Treatment
If the problem has an adverse effect on a patient‘s life or relationship, they are encouraged to speak to their doctor about their concerns. During the consultation, the doctor may discuss past sexual, medical, and psychological histories to evaluate what may be contributing to the problem.
With this information, the doctor may be able to treat any underlying medical conditions, adjust any current medications that may be affecting the condition, or suggest relaxation techniques that might enhance comfort during sexual activity.
