Abstract/OtherAbstract:
175 consecutive infertile couples were interviewed together and individually in accordance with a 25 point questionnaire. Amongst the males, premature ejaculations 66% was most common problem followed by erectile dysfunction 15%, decreased libido 11% and orgasmic failure 8%. Amongst females dyspareunia 58%, decreased libido 28% and orgasmic failure 14% were most common problems. Various type of misconceptions were also observed in the infertile couples. Lack of sexual awareness and education formed an important part of observations. Psychosexual dysfunction and infertility was found to occur, in a large number of couples, together in association. Most common cause for this problem seems to be ignorance and lack of sex education.
