性功能障碍的诊断与治疗-诊断

身体检查

性功能障碍可能具有多种多样的病因，而且不可能分清是生理的病因所起的作用大还是精神的病因所起的作用大。（临床普通科室的）医生倾向于过高估计纯生理病因的作用，而精神病医生倾向于过高估计精神病因的重要性。极为常见的是，两类病因都在性功能障碍中起着作用。无论如何，始终首先要谨慎地处理好可能的生理方面的致病原因，这类病因处理也比较容易。

The Treatment of Sexual Dysfunctions - Diagnosis

Physical Examination

Sexual dysfunctions can have a variety of causes, and it is impossible to say whether physical or psychosocial causes play a greater role. Physicians tend to overestimate the role of purely physical causes, while psychotherapists overestimate the importance of psychosocial causes. Very often, both kinds of causes contribute to the problem. In any case, it is always prudent - and easier - to deal with the possible physical causes first.
