Abstract
The nature, incidence, prevalence, etiology and management of sexual problems in MS has not been well defined yet. Sexual dysfunctions in MS seem to be related to a combination of the neurological consequences of MS and the personal, partner and social reactions to this condition. A sexual history is valuable in defining the specific areas of concern, and bringing into focus the patient's and the couple's sexual resources. Physical examination and investigations may assist in clarifying the extent of the sexual impairment and disability, and its relationship to MS. Treatment strategies include: relevant information, education, physical rehabilitation and supportive therapy in combination with medical intervention, and when indicated, surgical treatment or sex therapy. Long-range prognosis with or without treatment is not clear yet.
