The most common cause for female sexual dysfunction is aging and menopause. The same is the case in men. As men age, and as women age, sexual function complaints dramatically increase. The other medial reasons why women experience sexual complaints are not that much unlike why males experience erectile dysfunction: high blood pressure, diabetes, coronary vascular disease, medications (not only the antidepressant medications but a lot of the blood pressure lowering medications and cholesterol lowering medications), birth control pills, prior pelvic surgery, and childbirth. Those are some of the medical and physiologic reasons why women experience problems.
