Abstract
GARCIA GUTIERREZ, Eulalia et al. Male sexual dysfunction and stress. Rev Cub Med Mil [online]. 2005, vol.34, n.1, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1561-3046.
Sexuality is a psychological construction of the personality resulting from the interaction of organic, factors, congenital characteristics, environmental circunstances and social phenomena, in which the individual develops himself. That's why it has to be dealt with through a multidisciplinary, systemic and holistic approach. This paper was made at Dr. Carlos J. Finlay Hospital, where there is a multidisciplinary office that gives attention to all those patients that think they have some type of sexual dysfucntion. These patients are referred to the The Department of Special Research (DSR) to undergo psychophysiological and physiological studies. Of the studied cases, 60 predominantly psychogenic subjects with sexual dysfucntion were selected aimed at determining stress indicators that may be related to sexual dysfunction, such as: anxiety state and trait anxiety, vulnerability to stress, risk for falling ill and temperament. Among the results, it was observed a predominance of a trend towards nueroticism, the melancholic and phlegmatic temperaments, the vulnerability to stress and the high risk for getting sick.
