Book Clinical Manual of Sexual Disorders

Download or read book Clinical Manual of Sexual Disorders written by Richard Balon and published by American Psychiatric Pub. This book was released on 2009-08-06 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sexuality is an integral part of gender identity, self-image, and overall well-being. Sexual dysfunctions present in all cultures and ethnicities around the world. Sexual problems have an especially high prevalence among patients with psychiatric syndromes -- yet, in recent years, the field of psychiatry has shifted away from the treatment of sexual disorders. Clinical Manual of Sexual Disorders is the first comprehensive text in decades to address the management and treatment of sexual dysfunctions and disorders. Using a conceptual model that incorporates biological, psychological, and cultural interventions as its guiding principle, the book explores and evaluates the epidemiology of sexual disorders and paraphilias, sexual dysfunctions with comorbid psychiatric disorders, sexual problems associated with various medications, and sexual disorders in specific patient populations. Written by 25 contributing clinical specialists from around the world, the text combines conceptual shifts within the field of human sexuality with the latest research findings into a practical three-part volume. The first four chapters cover general areas relevant to the clinical understanding of human sexuality and sexual dysfunctions within the frame of psychiatry. The second part of the book outlines the major sexual dysfunctions, including male erectile disorder, female arousal disorder, premature ejaculation, and paraphilias. And the final chapters address the management of sexual issues in two unique patient populations that are often neglected in other textbooks -- children and adolescents and older adults. The book includes several unique features to further enhance learner retention Tables, charts, figures, and illustrations to enhance the reading material Evaluations, questionnaires and other patient materials Take-away points on key clinical issues at the end of each chapter Case examples from the authors' own practices References for further reading Restoration of sexual function can improve the quality of life for many individuals with and without psychiatric disorders, making recognition and treatment of sexual problems of utmost importance to any general psychiatric practice. As the only text of its kind, Clinical Manual of Sexual Disorders provides a concise, clinically-oriented biopsychosocial guide to the management and treatment of sexual dysfunction that is appropriate for all psychiatric, clinical, and educational settings.

Book Female Sexual Function and Dysfunction

Download or read book Female Sexual Function and Dysfunction written by Elisabetta Costantini and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-06-19 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses all aspects of sexuality in women and in particular explores sexual function and dysfunction in a variety of settings, including the different stages of life and a wide range of major diseases and local conditions. The aim is to refocus attention on the needs and sexual realities of women, providing a fresh point of view that will assist gynecologists, sexual medicine physicians, and urologists in delivery of high-quality care and help women themselves to understand and address sexual problems relating to desire, arousal, orgasm, and sexual pain. Psychological aspects of female sexuality and the impacts of the aging process, pregnancy, and childbirth are carefully examined. Extensive consideration is then given to the effects on sexual function of such conditions as cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, neurological disease, endometriosis, pelvic organ prolapse, urinary incontinence, reproductive disorders, sexual abuse, and drug abuse. Issues of sexual identity and female dysmorphophobias are also considered. The authors are all experts in the field and have a deep understanding of the complexities of female sexuality.

Book Diagnosis and Treatment of Erectile Disturbances

Download or read book Diagnosis and Treatment of Erectile Disturbances written by R. Taylor Segraves and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the result of an informal association between the editors which extends back to 1974. At the beginning, it was a tenuous alliance between physicians in quite different medical subspecialties-urology and psychiatry. As the alliance was forged, subspecialty rivalries and mistrust were replaced by a common clinical interest in the diagnosis and treatment of erectile problems. We quickly became aware of the high prevalence of such disorders, how poorly prepared we were to make accurate and re sponsible diagnosis and treatment plans, and how complicated an etiol ogical diagnosis could prove to be. A variety of biological and psychological influences bear on sexual function, and in many clinical contexts, diagnosis and treatment planning involves consideration of complex interactive var iables. The need for an expanded multidisciplinary team became obvious. The requisite knowledge base extended across too many subspecialty boundaries, and the necessary information was not available in a conve nient source. As we began accumulating the information base, we became aware that this information might be of value to other physicians. The authors enjoy the luxury of an academic setting in which special expertise can be readily assembled. Such resources are often unavailable to the physician in practice. Thus, it is our hope that this text can serve as a multi specialty team for the physician in solo practice. R. TAYLOR SEGRAVES New Orleans, Louisiana HARRY W.

Download or read book Sexual Medicine written by Karthik Gunasekaran and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-09-18 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though sexual medicine is probably among the oldest of medical specialties, in fact not much was spoken about the subject till Kinsey published his first report in 1948. Speaking of sex was not considered a taboo by ancient civilizations, but this has not continued into the modern era. Herein lies the principle problem...patients and even doctors are not willing to openly discuss sexuality and sexual health. Healthcare professionals also fail to discuss these pertinent issues due to a lack of time, resources and general fear of causing offense. More importantly, there seems to be a lack of good training. Societies like the International Society of Sexual Medicine and European Society of Sexual Medicine (ESSM) are actively taking up the cause and furthering research into this particular field. Considering that the prevalence of male and female sexual dysfunction in the general population ranges between 2 and 10%, the need of the hour is to train more doctors to professionally practice sexual medicine. Good textbooks on sexual medicine for primary healthcare providers are few and far between. The ESSM has come out with a working syllabus but a more concise text is still lacking. This book, Sexual Medicine – Principles and Practice, aims to bridge that gap by presenting scientific principles in the treatment of male and female sexual dysfunction, while also highlighting numerous recent advances. Reviewing basic principles like assessment of male and female sexual function and/or dysfunction, along with sex therapy, it offers an essential reference guide for physicians, surgeons, gynecologists, urologists, and all those wish to practice sexual medicine

Book Sexual Dysfunction in Men

Download or read book Sexual Dysfunction in Men written by David L Rowland and published by Hogrefe Publishing GmbH. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "By far the best professional book ever published about understanding, assessing, and treating male sexual dysfunction." Sexual dysfunctions in men, such as erectile dysfunction, ejaculatory disorders, and low sexual desire, are typically sources of significant distress for men. This book, being published with the companion volume Sexual Dysfunction in Women, provides general therapists with practical, yet succinct evidence-based guidance on the diagnosis and treatment of the most common male sexual disorders encountered in clinical practice. It assumes that mental health professionals and other clinicians without expertise in the field of sex therapy have much to offer these men by combining a multidisciplinary understanding of issues surrounding sexual problems with their general clinical knowledge and expertise. With tables and marginal notes to assist orientation, the book is designed for quick and easy reference while at the same time providing more in-depth understanding for those desiring it. The book can serve as a go-to guide for professional clinicians in their daily work and is an ideal educational resource for students and for practiceoriented continuing education. Recent Praise: "Simply put, this is by far the best professional book ever published about understanding, assessing, and treating male sexual dysfunction. David Rowland examines the biopsychosocial model of sexual function and dysfunction and applies a multi-dimensional, complex approach to understanding and changing male sexual dysfunction. This book makes a major contribution to the field and should be on the bookshelf of every psychologist, physician, and couple therapist treating men individually or in couple therapy." Barry McCarthy, Professor of Psychology, American University, Washington DC; certified marriage and sex therapist; coauthor of Men's Sexual Health and Sexual Awareness (5th ed.) "David Rowland's text is an important addition to the literature and belongs in every therapist's library.

Robert Taylor Segraves, MD, PhD, Professor of Psychiatry emeritus, Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, OH; Editor of Journal of Sex and Marital Therapy "Written for both professionals and the general population, David Rowland's work provides a comprehensive, scholarly review of men's sexual problems and up-to-date treatments. He concisely examines physiological and psychological causes and provides the theoretical underpinnings necessary for accurate diagnosis and treatment. This compact volume is a valuable source of useful information succinctly covering an all-too-often ignored area of human function and interaction." Diane Morrissette, PhD, Psychotherapist specializing in sex and relationship counseling, Palo Alto, CA "The interdisciplinary expertise of Dr. David Rowland makes this comprehensive book on sexual dysfunction in men an essential read for any professional. The excellent descriptions of assessment and treatment will prove enlightening to medical health providers as well as anyone in the mental health field. The inclusion of the empirical evidence of varying treatments will help clinicians focus on the most efficacious approach. Sex Dysfunction in Men is a welcomed addition to evidence-based practice."
