Abstract
The aim of this study was to compare a group of 50 women suffering from sexual pain disorder with 50 women in sexual health (control group). Each woman was asked to complete anonymous questionnaire referring to three different assessment areas. To assess the pleasure related to erotic imagery and sexual experience, women were asked to indicate the level of pleasure perceived fantasyzing or experiencing ten sample randomized situations with three possible answers (no pleasure - little pleasure - a lot of pleasure). To assess the fit of women's own sexual experience with current models of female sexual response (Master & Johnson - Kaplan - Basson), women were asked to indicate which one, if any, of these models best described their own pattern of sexual response. To assess female sexual function, the fsfi was included in the survey instruments. The sexual pain disorder group presented a lower pleasure related to erotic imagery and sexual experience and was more likely to endorse Basson model despite MJ the consequences in the therapy are discussed.
