|  | |In some families, major depression also seems to occur generation after generation.| | |

| •  | |However, it can also occur in people who have no family history of depression. | | |

|Sexual Arousal Disorder | |Whether inherited or not, major depressive disorder is often associated with | | |

| | |changes in brain structures or brain function. | | |

|  | |Treatment | | |

|[pic] | |The majority of the time, medical evaluation and lab tests will not reveal a | | |

|Sexual Desire Disorder | |physical cause. However, testosterone is the hormone responsible for creating | | |

| | |sexual desire in both men and women. It may be useful to check testosterone levels,| | |

|  | |particularly in men who have ISD. Blood for such lab tests in men should be drawn | | |

| •  | |before 10:00 a.m., when male hormone levels are at their highest. Interviews with a| | |

|Sexual Masochism | |specialist in sex therapy are more likely to reveal possible causes. | | |

| | |Treatment must be individualized to the factors that may be inhibiting sexual | | |

|  | |interest. Some couples will need relationship enhancement work or marital therapy | | |

| •  | |prior to focusing directly on enhancing sexual activity. | | |

|Sexual Pain Disorder | |Some couples will need to be taught skills in conflict resolution and be helped to | | |

| | |work through differences in nonsexual areas. | | |

| | |Many couples will also need direct focus on the sexual relationship wherein through| | |

| | |education and couple assignments they expand the variety and time devoted to sexual| | |

| | |activity. | | |

| | |When problems with sexual arousal or performance are factors, these sexual | | |

| Sexual Health | |dysfunctions will need to be addressed. | | |

| | |Prevention | | |

| | |One major way of preventing ISD is to reserve time for nonsexual intimacy with | | |

| | |one's partner. Couples who reserve weekly talk time and time for a weekly date | | |

| | |alone without the kids, will maintain a closer relationship and are more likely to | | |

| | |feel sexual interest. Couples should also detach sex and affection, so that neither| | |

| | |one is afraid to be affectionate on a daily basis, fearing that it will be | | |

| | |interpreted as an invitation to proceed to intercourse. | | |

| Attraction | |Reading books or taking courses in couple communication, or reading books about | | |

| | |massage may also encourage feelings of closeness. For some individuals, reading | | |

| •  | |novels or viewing movies with romantic or sexual content may also serve to | | |

|Appearance | |encourage sexual desire. | | |

| | |For too many couples, sex gets what is left over late at night. Regularly reserving| | |

| •  | |"prime time," before exhaustion sets in, for both talking and sexual intimacy will | | |

|Health and Beauty | |encourage closeness and sexual desire. | | |

| | |When both partners have low sexual desire, the issue of sexual interest level will | | |

| •  | |not be problematic in the relationship. Low sexual desire, however, may be a | | |

|Flirting | |barometer of the emotional health of the relationship. In other cases where there | | |

| | |is an excellent and loving relationship, low sexual desire may cause a partner to | | |

| •  | |repeatedly feel hurt and rejected, leading to eventual feelings of resentment and | | |

|Gender | |promoting eventual emotional distance. | | |

| | |Sex is something that, for most couples, either bonds their relationship closer | | |

| •  | |together, or something that becomes a wedge that gradually drives them apart. When | | |

|Homosexuality | |one partner is significantly less interested in sex than their companion, and this | | |

| | |has become a source of conflict and friction, it is recommended that professional | | |

| Intimacy | |help is needed before the relationship becomes further strained. | | |
