ABSTRACT
Numerous surveys have documented that sexuality and/or sexual activity is important to women at all stages of adulthood, including postmenopause. Genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM) and hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD) are common disorders in postmenopausal women and may co-occur. Both are often undiagnosed due to a lack of knowledge of the disorder, health-care professional discomfort in discussing sexual problems or a lack of routine screening. It is incumbent upon health-care professionals to identify and differentiate these conditions in women through a biopsychosocial assessment, and may require a focused physical examination. Numerous treatments, both non-pharmacologic and pharmacologic, are available to address GSM and HSDD.
