Aetiological considerations associated with cultural factors (Q45096): Difference between revisions

This category should be assigned when, in the clinician’s judgment, cultural factors are important contributing factors to the Sexual Dysfunction or Sexual Pain Disorder. Cultural factors may influence expectations or provoke inhibitions about the experience of sexual pleasure or other aspects of sexual activity. Other examples include strong culturally shared beliefs about sexual expression, for example a belief that loss of semen can lead to weakness, disease or death.
