Abstract
There is increasing public awareness that sexual dysfunction is a real problem affecting the health, wellness, and emotional well-being of innumerable women and men. Sexual function is an aspect of human behavior that encompasses relationship, physical and emotional intimacy, feelings, thoughts and interpersonal interaction. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) declaration (1), fundamental rights exist for the individual, including the right to sexual health and the capacity to enjoy and control sexual and reproductive behavior. Individuals are entitled to be free of fear, shame, guilt, false beliefs, and organic disorders that might inhibit normal sexual response and impair sexual relationships and reproductive function. Because healthy sexual functioning is an integral part of normal life, it should be incorporated into health care plans along with other factors ensuring quality of life. Health professionals, being at the front line of health care services, should play a major role in advocating sexual health rights.
