Abstract
Female sexuality is complex and a variety of schemes have evolved to attempt the definition and categorization of the various kinds of female sexual dysfunction. This paper reviews some of the current systems of classification and describes how understanding these systems can help the physician in evaluating the individual patient, who may present with overlapping features of several co-morbid sexual dysfunctions.
