Sexual Dysfunction in Women by Marta Meana Pdf

Sexual Dysfunction in Women is a concise yet detailed clinical guide to the treatment of sexual difficulties in women. Written with the general psychologist and therapist in mind and being published with a companion volume on Sexual Dysfunction in Men, it takes the novel position that most clinicians interested and willing to help female clients with sexual concerns can do so effectively, even if they do not primarily consider themselves as sex therapists. Many women will experience difficulties with desire, arousal, orgasm, or pain with intercourse at some point in the course of their lives, yet most clinicians feel less equipped to treat sexual dysfunction than far less prevalent disorders. This book empowers general psychologists, therapists, and other practitioners to actively engage in the multidisciplinary treatment of sexual disorders and broaden their knowledge base about sexuality, an important component of most clients' quality of life. It is both a go-to resource for professional clinicians in their daily work and an ideal resource for students and practice-oriented continuing education.

Sexual Dysfunction in Women by Hanex Morrison Pdf

Around 30 to 50 percent of women have sexual problems at some stage in their life. If the problems are serious enough, they are considered sexual dysfunction. Sexual dysfunction can be described and diagnosed in relation to specific problems, such as no interest or desire, problems with excitability or reaching orgasm, pain during sexual activities, involuntary tightening of the vaginal muscles or constant and unwanted physical (genital) arousal. However, these differences are not always helpful. Almost all women with sexual dysfunction show signs of more than one specific problem. For example, women who are difficult to excite have less fun in sexual intercourse, have difficulty Orgasm or even find intercourse painful. These women, and most women who experience pain during sexual activity, often understandably lose interest in and desire for sex. Sexual Dysfunction in Women is free from all elaboration and superfluous detail, a laconic clinical guide to the treatment of sexual dysfunction in women. This book empowers women including young females to actively engage in the multidisciplinary treatment of sexual disorders and broaden their knowledge base about sexuality, an important component of most patients quality of life. The book also covers sexual disorder in young girls such as bacterial vaginosis, polycystic ovarian syndrome, urinary incontinence and sexual dysfunctions in menopause. Coital Incontinence, Woman's Ejaculation, Loss Of Libido, Sexual Desire Disorder, Sexual Arousal Disorders Orgasm Disorders, Pain Disorders, Causes Of Sexual Disorders In Women and the role diet play in managing sexual dysfunction and more.

Transcultural Bodies by Ylva Hernlund,Bettina Shell-Duncan Pdf

Female "circumcision" or, more precisely, female genital cutting (FGC), remains an important cultural practice in many African countries, often serving as a coming-of-age ritual. It is also a practice that has generated international dispute and continues to be at the center of debates over women's rights, the limits of cultural pluralism, the balance of power between local cultures, international human rights, and feminist activism. In our increasingly globalized world, these practices have also begun immigrating to other nations, where transnational complexities vex debates about how to resolve the issue. Bringing together thirteen essays, Transcultural Bodies provides an ethnographically rich exploration of FGC among African diasporas in the United Kingdom, Europe, and Australia. Contributors analyze changes in ideologies of gender and sexuality in immigrant communities, the frequent marginalization of African women's voices in debates over FGC, and controversies over legislation restricting the practice in immigrant populations.
