To this end, large amounts of data were collected on women from France, Germany, Italy and the UK, via the Women’s International Survey on Health and Sexuality (2467 responders aged between 20 and 70, with surgical and natural menopausal status and with premenopausal status).
The findings of the survey have implications for the understanding of hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD), not only the way it should be assessed in clinical practice, but also the most appropriate means for its treatment.
