Frigidity - Cases

Frigidity may have many causes, both organic (endocrine) andpsycho-behavioral. In general, however, the clinical picture isevocative of hormonal disorders and is manifested by signs thatoccur prior to sexual problems.

Traditionally, it was believed that frigidity is due to psychological problems. Recent studies have revealed numerous organic causesfor female sexual dysfunction. Although many sexual problems are based on a psychological component, possible organic causesmust be excluded during initial tests.

- education with strict prohibitions regarding sexuality (nudity ban,parental emotional gestures, masturbation, etc..)
- Low self esteem
- feelings of guilt or shame over sex
- history of sexual trauma (rape)
- a first sexual intercourse painful or psychologically traumatic
- or painful sexual acts generally unsatisfactory
- Poor communication between partners
- anxiety, depression, stress or fatigue
- fear of pain, infection or a pregnancy
- Lack of appropriate stimulations
- lack of vaginal lubrication
- changes related to menopause
- nerve damage after surgery or trauma
- Some medications (psychotropic, antihypertensives, etc.).
- gynecological infection
- vaginal malformation
- endocrine or cardiovascular diseases

Sometimes no specific cause can be highlighted to explain theseissues.
